I'm a bloke,I'm an ocker
And I really love your knockers,I'm a labourer by day,
I **** up all me pay,Watching footy on TV,
Just feed me more VB,Just pour my beer,And get my smokes, And go away
I would have nothing against him attending a few league of Ireland games. He could easily fly to Dublin on a Friday afternoon. Watch a LOI game and have a meeting with Delaney etc, he can stay in my gaff if he likes and we can go for a few pints in the bar in Bohs if he wants. Then Saturday morning he can head over to England and see maybe two games and on Sunday see 1 game. Then head back to Italy to be with his family and watch tapes of the other games he did not see etc.

Exactly, plenty of talent in the league.
1) sack Don Givens as u21 boss
that is all....

Sack the man who hired him?Originally Posted by Dr. Ogba
Do you honestly see this happening?
not really but there might be a good chance that he'll be offered an "upstairs" role by the FAI so that he won't have a direct involvement in ruining the future generations of Irish football...Sack the man who hired him?

That would be the only way I could see it happening. Fingers crossed.
Givens is a clown.
He did not have Ireland's best interest at heart while managing the team imo.
I also believe his management of the U-21 team is damaging Irish soccer...
Oh Dear.
Has anyone read The Star?
They seem to have taken the "celebratory" route, and neglected to do any journalism...
Witness "50 reasons why Trap is our man" (Which includes such gems as "He was born in a foreign country, just Like Barnlsey man Mick McCarthy" and "Age is not on his side". Why the latter would be a reason why he's "our man", only the Star in it's infinite wisdom can confirm)
Also "tickling" the "Funny bone" are randomly dotted "Trap Facts", which presumably are to give us more information on our new manager.
The most prominent fact on Trapattoni is "Did you know that Joe Dolce, singer of the 80's Number 1 "Shaddapa you face" was not actually Italian, but Australian?"
I for one, after digesting said information, now feel closer in spirit to the new gaffer, and sincerely thank the Star for literally, the seconds of effort they seem to have put in.
First thing on Traps to-do list? A long hard look at press accreditation...
On the way into the stadium, an elderly San Marino Steward waved us in and said "Tonight, may the best team win"
And they nearly did.
Bring Kiely and Holland back
"No regrets, none at all. My only regret is that we went out on penalties. That's my only regret. But no, no regrets." -Mick McCarthy
Once he sees Gethins in action he will know he made the right decision in accepting the job
BTW, Holmes is not available as he is a senior Northern Ieland international.

Get an interpreter for Steven Hunt
He should ask Stephen Ireland if he wants to be included in the next squad - if Ireland says no then that should be the end of it. This is his country ffs and he should not need to be "talked into" representing his country. It's an honour and a privilige - if he doesn't want it there are plenty others who do. Jack Charlton dealt with David O'Leary in a similar way after O'Leary didn't want to play in some friendly matches and it didn't do anyone any harm then!
Dunne should be captain and I completely agree with the comment that Robbie Keane should no longer be an automatic selection!
It would be unfair to compare the O Leary situation with the Stephen Ireland situation. O Leary wanted to play for us.

O'Leary was definitely made an example of alright but it did send a message to the others which set the right sort of tone. I think managers need to be seen to be strong and spending too much time talking Ireland into coming back won't do that.
Remember reading the "Boys a bit Special" section of FourFourTwo when Stephen Ireland was featured, the last question is always "Where do you see yourself in 5 years?" & Ireland said he'd be playing for Citys 1st team and also International football but he wasn't sure who for...he apparently qualifies for Ireland, England & Italy so maybe he speaks some of the lingo himself & Trap can bring him back as a translator and all!
You show me a good loser and I'll show you a loser - Vince Lombardi
Knowing Ireland he probably does not qualify for Italy but is just a bit crazy.
