I wouldn't with hiring him
Just because Kenny wasn't qualified for the role, doesn't mean we should make the same mistake. OShea is obviously better, but we need experience now. Not another punt

Whatever about the merits of O'Shea (and I don't think he should be anywhere near any shortlist for the job), no candidate should be supported on the basis that they probably won't be as bad as Kenny. Kenny has the worst record of any Irish manager in history and it's a record that is unlikely to ever be surpassed. So we're going to need a lot more justification than that to consider appointing the likes of O'Shea to be anything other than another FAI shambles.

His claim would be modest in a perfect world, but he does not deserve such a pejorative. Anyone who backed Kenny beyond the Armenia debacle has a hide to rubbish any candidate.

I think the pejorative means people with zero experience in a managerial role.

Correct!
