"Fc ryUKYU Troussier"
Working and well paid - Smith, Burley, Sir Alex, Strachan, Moyes, McLeish.
Available - Davies, Dalglish? Souness, Graham?
I don´t think a runner up from the available list would rattle your cage enough to even open one eye
No, those "available" wouldn't excite but it's worth pointing out the number of mangers they have in good jobs, or who had solid reputations from past jobs
Lawrie Sanchez anyone?

Sanchez would be a very credible appointment ... 100 times more so than that waster Venables!
bhs
not only would sanchez be credible but it would be fun !!
Was he crazy!! Yeah , in a very special way , an Irishman.
I slept, and dreamed that life was Beauty;
I woke, and found that life was Duty.
What has Sanchez achieved as a manager? Nothing. And he looks like one of the Kray twins!
I think he looks a bit like Eamon de Valera.
He did a good job with NI but what he brought to that job from what I could see - organisation & motivation - is the minimum requirement for us. I'm not sure he can bring much more than this. He's a lot better than what we had, but I think there's a lot better out there.
Troussier quoted as follows:
“FC Ryukyu ended at 17th among 18 teams. There is no lower place."
eh, what about 18th?
Hindsight and all that but if he'd stayed there NI would, at the very least, have come a lot closer to qualifying for Euro 2008 (allowing for the disasters of Worthington's early away games) - his reputation would be huge and he probably could have got one of the jobs that recently became available in England, maybe even get a job in Spain if he wanted to go down that route.
SIGNATURESCOPE
Nah!! He has dirtied his bib... One might even say he's a 'Dirty Sanchez'
Unlikely to get the job - John Delaney has issued a statement saying he will have no truck with Lawrie.
SIGNATURESCOPE
Just thinking that there. If greed hadn't have got the better of him, I've no doubt they would have got the results against Iceland and Latvia away which would have left them in a great position going into the last game. He still would have been in a position to take a decent low profile premiership job, whereas now he's stuck in a rut me thinks.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
If we get Sanchez, the same same thing would happen to us that happened to NI? If we beat Italy and have a few good other early results, the first relegation threatened team in the 2008-09 Prem Season would come in for him and he would be off.
"Jacques Santini...will be greeted in every dugout of the country by "one-nil, one-nil" - Clive Tyldsley, 89th minute of France-England June 13, 2004.
"Ooooohhhh Nooooooo" Bobby Robson 91st minute.
Honestly I'd doubt he'd go back so quickly. His reputation has been badly damaged at Fulham.
In addition, the salary we're offering is probably not much less than he'd be making at a lot of clubs.
On Drivetime Sport yesterday, they were broadcasting live from UCD in the build-up to the RTE Sports awards. Des Cahill was talking away when John Delaney and Glen Killane (RTÉ Head of Sport) walked by.
They stopped to talk about the deal they had just worked out together regarding televised matches.
Cahill jokingly asked Kilane if he'd bagged an exclusive interview with the next manager when he's appointed and Kilane said: "We might know him very well by all accounts."
Delaney, meanwhile, gave the diplomatic, pre-prepared answer on the subject ("it's out of my hands").
Does Kilane know something we don't?
Brady as manager with Giles as some sort of advisor. I was told that last week by a few football people. Sounds overly bizarre but this is the FAI.
Surely not as they slagged the FAI and Staunton and Robson for the same sort of set up. Giles was quite scathing on the job that Robson had so I doubt he would go back on his own words that much.
In Trap we trust
