They should look closer to home this time. We've some decent current and ex club managers over here. Go the Dean Smith route and give an up and coming with nouse a chance. What's to lose? Nah, they will bring back mad Mick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted November 23, 2018 Share Posted November 23, 2018 No surprise the in form club players in Ireland squad in recent years that didnt get games are out questioning MON training methods. Doherty and Hourihane have been critical with Doherty being very honest and no cliches Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Jon Walters has retired through injury. Not the most talented or greatest player but a proper warrior. Would run through brick walls for the team. One of last hardmen in football No shock Stoke collapsed when lost characters like him and Whelan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 When you need to break down a stubborn side Hourihane and Hendrick are not the midfield two you ideally want. Neither of them could see a forward pass if it slapped them in the face. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Even against Gibraltrar Conor has no balls to actually get on the ball in the middle of the pitch or get on it amongst the action. Why he is picking up dead balls and spending the entire half 7 yards away from Duffy and Keogh at all times. Passing sideways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted April 10, 2019 Share Posted April 10, 2019 The dodgy association are before a government committee at the momemt and the governing body have frozen funds to the FAI as of yesterday This was because the head of the FAI tried to get an injunction from the media reporting why he personally loaned the FAI €100000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BOF Posted April 11, 2019 Moderator Share Posted April 11, 2019 FAI Issue Carefully Worded One Finger Statement To Irish Public Quote FAI Issue Carefully Worded One Finger Statement To Irish Public IN A BID to bring much needed clarity to the evidence given by their organisation to the Oireachtas Sports Committee yesterday, the FAI has released a carefully worded one finger statement directly to the Irish public. Seeking to offer a more considered testimony that gives a better account of themselves, the FAI released a hand drawn picture of a hand flipping the middle finger, which is commonly used to denote the phrase ‘**** you’. Many members of the public were angered by the evasive and purposefully meandering answers given by FAI representatives who rarely addressed questions posed by the few TDs and Senators that weren’t shamefully attempting to glue their tongues to the hole of John Delaney. Asked why his colleagues persisted with a tactic of obfuscation when asked perfectly reasonable questions which the Irish public and football supporters were entitled to answers on, and indeed why he himself refused to answer questions, Delaney was candid. “On legal advice I refer you to the one finger FAI statement made earlier,” confirmed Delaney. Asked once more by the Irish public on the issue of the €100,000 bridging loan, and why board members and the honorary treasurer were not informed, John Delaney and the FAI were uncharacteristically open, honest and forthright: “Yiz can **** read can’t ya? We refer you back to our original statement”. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
