To a certain extent, confirming anybody as manager is better than all this going round in circles, but the comments by FAI bosses make it clear that O'Shea wasn't on the radar until recently. Whatever plan was in place for Carsley/Poyet/whoever has obviously fallen through.
And he has no experience as a manager. It's hard to gauge the performance of backroom staff as they often get fired along with the first team manager regardless of how they've done, so he really is an unknown.
The whole thing's a real mess tbh.
