He's not being sacked!! And it's unfair to compare us with the English. I don't think anyone on this board has called for Brian Kerr's head midway through a campaign, and we acknolwedge that the time for him to be judged is at the end of the current one. I don't think 'The Sun' readers accross the water can be credited with that kind of objectivity.
Two questions have to be asked. One is that have we seen anything from BK over the last two campaigns to support that stance that he's the man to take our squad, a weaker one at that, to the next euro championships. And secondly are there better alternative out there.
The whole thing has been handled poorly by all parties, Kerr included. The comments made by Kerr last week were mistimed. He should realise that qualification for Germany '06 should be first and foremost on his mind, and that of the FAI, and not the following campaign for Euro '08. The FAI also have allot to answer for.
