thetrees Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 Yeah denis obrien can afford it ...as he got that nice big tax bill wiped clean Does Denis O'Brien subsidise all of the contracts for the national team manager? I thought it was just an arrangement to get Trappatoni. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 id hope the new manager has a broadened mind when it comes to selection. We are a small country but we should be at least competing for play-off spots and we should not be alienating players due to petty grudges Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted September 12, 2013 Moderator Share Posted September 12, 2013 I would expect that the manager's remit would be made clear to him before being appointed. I.O.W. every candidate is interviewed on the basis that they're here to do a job that strongly includes bringing through the new players and re-assessing those who were out in the cold. And if they don't like having that one simple instruction enforced on them then they're simply 'not right for the role at this time'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted September 12, 2013 Moderator Share Posted September 12, 2013 Martin O'Neill as an international manager? He will completely lot of the fans I know are idiots. thaey want good football, youth players to be given a chance and then they want MON. MON is a lesser version of Trappatoni and his dinosaur tactics be picked apart by any team that can play football or with a No.10 The myth of O'Neill remains strong with some neutral observers. I remember telling a Sunderland fan about him when he left us and he thought I was mad, then he was delighted when they got him but you should hear what he thinks of him now. I totally agree with your view, he would be a terrible international manager. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted September 12, 2013 Moderator Share Posted September 12, 2013 I think both his attributes and his flaws point towards a better international manager than club manager tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
packoman Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 FAI would consider another overseas appointment The Football Association of Ireland chief executive John Delaney has told Sky Sports News that they could appoint another overseas manager to succeed Giovanni Trapattoni. Delaney will hold talks about potential targets in the next few days, but has not ruled out early favourite Martin O'Neill - or a return for Mick McCarthy. "In terms of the next man all we want is the best manager," Delaney told Sky Sports News. "It does not matter whether he is Irish, English, contintental or whatever. "We want the best man in to get the best out of our players and get the team to the Euros in 2016. That's what the Irish public want, that's what the Irish soccer supporters want, that's what the Irish association wants. "There is plenty of speculation and plenty of names like Chris Hughton, Martin O'Neill, Roy Keane and Mick McCarthy; all those names have been mentioned as have many, many others. "We will sit down in the next couple of weeks and put together the type of job description we want, the type of process and the timings we will put towards that. "Ideally we would like to have a manager in place for the games in October but that's not a must, because we have 12 months before we play our first qualifiers next for Euro 2016 and I think it's important we get the right man in so we have the best chance to qualify for France in 2016. "The players will have their views and the public will have different opinions too. It is going to be a mix of everybody's views. My board members will speak to the grassroots too. "But ultimately the FAI board will decide in the next week or so how we go about making the selection. Last time Ray Houghton, Don Howe and Don Givens helped us make the decision. We may use a similar process this time, we may not. "It's something that is very open and now is time for a short period of reflection about the job description, the process and the timing." O'Neill is the current bookmakers favourite for the job but Delaney would not be drawn on his, or any other candidates', chances. He said: "Roy Keane would be an interesting appointment but it would be inappropriate for me to start talking about individuals because as soon as I start talking about one then he will be ruled in or out. That wouldn't be correct of me. "Mick McCarthy managed us before he was our second most successful international manager and Giovanni Trapattoni would be our third. Jack Charlton was our first. Mick is a good man and has done well both at international level and at club level. "This morning, my phone was ringing and names were being put into the hat and that is the way the process works. We must be as confidential as we can. If you remember last time, Trapatonni came out of nowhere and there were six or seven different favourites through the whole process."

Meath_Villan Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 the whole denis obrien thing is a bit ...wtf ... If denis hinted that a certain player should play in a certain game and it then came about would it not be a bit suspect .....(like the kirkland thing say a sum of money would be won if said player took to the pitch) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
