    I reckon Brady will get the Director of International Performance position.

    In fairness now, we've heard so much unsubstantiated nonsense since this whole farce began, that we can pretty much disregard anything that doesn't come from the horses mouth; or so to speak.

    Has there been much movement in the market for Tigana? Heard one those "inside stories" that he's been approached! Don't have access here to any betting sites.
    Maybe, just once, someone will call me 'Sir' without adding, 'You're making a scene.'

    Really? Thanks for that. I genuinely wasn't aware that all 100 pages here contained nothing but pure unsubstantiated speculation.

    If Brady gets the job you really would have to laugh, after sacking staunton the FAI we were to believe were looking for a manager with a high level of experience. ....A unexperienced ex player, hmmm that sounds familiar (STAN)....a manager who is used to managing kids mainly(Kerr)...The FAI could do the double and repeat the same mistakes of the last two managers in one man!

    The bookies are manipulating the market again. Brady coming in to 2/1. Tigana reappears at 8/1. PP and the others are making a fortune on this.

    Radio 5 are suggesting that Houghtons comments this morning that "he" is not ready to recommend a candidate means he wants the amigos to interview Souness and possibly Daglish (if Daglish is willing to be interviewed)

    Sit back and watch as Red&White Rover enters the betting as a certain inter net forum highlights the lads experience (on page 1 of this thread).

    Its all over bar the shouting - its Red&Whites job to refuse. A most definite, shoe-in of a dead cert.

    That theory has been backed up on local news here, suggesting that Houghton's comments could mean that harmony is not complete in Camp Amigo, and he'd like to see more before confirming.

    Not Ready? In fairness he's had since November to get ready. It's a joke really and the game v Brazil (which I'm assuming is their deadline) will be the punchline to this fiasco. Should they take the finger out and employ someone today, what timeframe does that give any coach to survey over the talents that are at his disposal? What we'll end up with for this match is a squad picked by Givens and a starting XI largely influenced by his opinion. I know it's only a minor friendly but it doesn't exactly give the new man the best platform to start from.

    Didn't Souness decline interview? He's very well backed for Scotland I think.

    FAI has said the Brazil match is not necessarily the deadline. I agree. Now they've gone so far they should see the process through. If Houghton has his doubts and wants to exhaust all realistic opportunities then that's OK by me. At least he's being thorough.

    I just wanted to have post 2007, in honour of the start of this process. By the way I think a good point was made on page 73, though I cant remember it
