6 months? I'd say they should never have represented the country again. An appalling thing to do.
Tets: I would guess from that that it happened at least once so.
Not saying it was Kennedy, btw, just popped into my head when someone mentioned the Starksy & Hutch bonnet slide on Harcourt Street.
As good a time as any to remind ourselves of his cracker against Yugoslavia in 1999.
One of my favourite goals of all-time.
Probably in my top-3 matches of all-time. It was quality.
All 3 goals here:

DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
One of my favourite ever Irish goals.
We played brilliantly that night.
Breen had a cracker I remember

The Athletic carrying a story that Lincoln are targeting Mark Kennedy to take over as manager. He is presently assistant at Birmingham to Lee Bowyer. He last managed Macclesfield in 2020 but they were in all sorts of financial trouble and they were wound up in Sept 2020 soon after he left.
Lincoln linked with a few managers at the moment, Michael Carrick's named was mentioned on Twitter earlier
That is correct. The Athletic tend to be quite reliable in my right or wrong view.
Article below:
Lincoln City want Mark Kennedy to replace Michael Appleton as their next manager, with the League One club understood not to be targeting Michael Carrick.
Lincoln have been without a permanent manager since Michael Appleton left his role at the League One club after three seasons in charge.
Carrick, who worked as Manchester United’s caretaker manager for three matches earlier this season, had been linked to the vacancy but it is understood the club are targeting Kennedy, who is currently the assistant head coach at Championship club Birmingham City.
Kennedy, 45, has only had one job in management, replacing Danny Whitaker at Macclesfield Town in January 2020. But he took charge of just 12 matches before resigning, with Macclesfield eventually relegated to the National League as a result of a points deduction for financial issues.
In total Kennedy won one match at Macclesfield, drawing three and losing eight.
Prior to joining Macclesfield, Kennedy began his coaching career at Ipswich Town, eventually taking up a position coaching in Manchester City’s academy, while also working at Wolverhampton Wanderers.
He briefly returned to Ipswich after his Macclesfield departure, before taking his current role as Lee Bowyer’s assistant at Birmingham in June 2021.
He represented the Republic of Ireland 34 times during his playing career, during which time he enjoyed stints at Liverpool, Manchester City, Wolves, Crystal Palace, Cardiff and Ipswich.
Lincoln finished 17th in League One this season, a year after reaching the play-off final where they were beaten by Blackpool.
Appleton succeeded Danny Cowley at the LNER Stadium in September 2019.
Confirmed as the new Lincoln manager on a four-year contract.

Delighted for him. What a special player he was
Will be interesting to see how he gets on along with Scully and a rejuvenated Roughan next season…
