FAI...New Manager Hunt continues

[laoislad]

Time for O'Neill and Keane to have a rethink.

Time for them to fcuk off.

[Farrandeelin]

Who cares. It is not even on Irish tv.

This.

And who'll improve that team? Ireland have not got the players to compete

Get Wes out of retirement, Andy O'Brien as well and that'll give us the edge to "unlock" other teams.

Is Stephen Ireland still attending funerals?

No doubt quality players are sparse but I couldn't help but think how disorganised we were in defence, how easily we were caught out. Our back 4 are all premier league players and they were terrible last night.

Jesus Christ couldn't do anything with that squad.

Allah into Tallaght?

No wonder Rice doesn't want anything to do with them. A shambles Bill.

Someone call Lurgan Lenny

[Shamrock Shore]

I think the fact it seemed the team had no Plan A - let along a Plan B - is what's getting collective panties in a ball.

This is the management's fault. I know Coleman is a nice chap and all but he's no Captain Fantastic.

The game has changed dramatically over the past 30 years and the FAI was asleep at the youth development wheel for most of that time. People could see it coming but it far too long for the association to act. Now that it has, it is playing catch up but lacks the money to provide the required support to the clubs it has charged with implementing the system it has devised »

That and we used to Piggy-back on Englands youth development system. In the past England let us tap into this unchallenged. England are now struggling for players and are not as passive about letting decent players declare for the Republic.

Iceland have been the Market leaders in getting the most out of a Lowly populated and inferior League system. Through coaching and setting up a system to to hide their inadequacies and heighten their few strengths.

But even this seem to have become unstuck with them getting hammered by 6-0 by Switzerland today!

Look when you see High end Soccer countries with incredible resources and culture in Soccer like Italy and the Netherlands struggling, you know even a slight fall in form for us and we are  Banjaxed!
