QuoteWhat looking at Paddy Power site earlier, for a price on the next Liverpool manager.
They have Deschamps at 2 to 1 ON favourite to become the next Republic Of Ireland Manager.
Collection of small bets. Sounds like another rumour. Venables is 100/30 with Boylesports which is a good bet.Originally Posted by Dr. Ogba
like one bet of 23 grand or just a huge amount of bets on him in quick succession??
is there a bit of insider trading going on here? (I hope so!!!)

The Englishmen came over in the year 2005
But little did they know that we'd planned a wee surprise
Sir David scored the winner, and Windsor Park went wild
And this is what we sang...
Now favourite at 4-7 on.
That's encouraging. It could be just a rumour that got out of hand though. I've heard loads of rumours about Deschamps but not one mention of him in the papers (other than Roy Keane talking about the Deschamps rumour).
that would be some coup if we snapped up Deschamps. Please let him be tempted!

You'll NEVER beat the Irish.......you'll just draw with us instead!!!
I might actually get my balls licked by Kylie if this comes off!
I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.
In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.
Deschamps is 4-7 with PP and the same with Spoilsports yet he is almost 6-4 with BEtfair.
When are you lads gonna realise that for markets like this, the exchange is THE ONLY market worth checking....?

You may have missed the bit where Noelys Guitar tells us that €23k was put on Deschamps in a 90 minute period today.There's been €4k put on him since I started watching the market 20 minutes ago. Obviously people are willing to lay at that price because he's about the 7th or 8th different favourite so far.
If its true...... then bring it on! A proper successful experienced player (at the highest level - not at some sleeping giant of a club in the Epl), experiened football in different countries, brought a relatively small (in European terms) to a CL final and took charge of Juve in a turbulent time.
From his wiki entry(!) he doesn't seem to suffer fools at board level lightly so that could be a problem. Can't see his ego getting him into trouble with the new technical supervisor.
The only disappointing thing about the whole thing (if true) is that the FAI will have done a good thing.
Shudder!!!!
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
According to Newstalk someone put 6 grand on Deschamp early this morning and this started the deluge of betting. They also said that Givens stated yesterday that nobody from the FAI knows who the 3 amigo's are interviewing.
My major doubt about this isn't caused by the fact Deschamps wouldn't look twice at us, or anyones chances of getting kylie to lick their balls.My mate just saw Didier Deschamps outside the FAI offices on Merrion Square. 6/1 odds down from 20/1 this morning. Worth a flutter.
My big doubt is because as far as i was aware the FAI aren't in Merrion Square anymore.
over on another forum a poster wrote:

Made me laugh anyway!

Forget about Deschamps Houllier is 25/1. If he wants the job he will then surely he will get it. To be interviewed later this week.
It gets better by the hour , who's hot then who's cold ?
The only people who are having a laugh are our friends the bookies .
I must say the boys at Abbot and Costella town are the only ones saving money lets face it, it could turn up to be 3 months without a manager and hey the FAI have just saved that in wages even thou they have spend it on Stan already .
Just like everyone else I am sick of it now ,the only thing I am looking forward to today is the fixtures .......
Couldn't agree more Murph!
Tact is for people who are not witty enough to be sarcastic
but isn't Houllier being written off due to the large amount of compensation that will be due to the French FA?
Edit: Disregard! just read the examiner article in the new Ireland manager thread...
