FAI...New Manager Hunt continues

Parrott will surely be loaned out to the championship next season, or even in Jan.

What are you talking about sure he'll be relegating Harry Kane to the bench next season!!!

He won't be going anywhere in January unless Spurs sign another striker. They have no depth.  Championship loan would be good for him. He couldn't possibly do any worse than Harry Kane did when he was on loan at Leicester and Norwich. An example of how different players progress at different paces.

[Itchy]

Some impressive footballers on that team although against very poor opponents. Robbie Brady looked like the weak linked, amazing how far his star has fallen.

Take your time. People trying to make him grow up too soon. Look what happened to players like Owen and Rooney when they were brought through as teenagers. They were fecked in their late 20's.

Switzerland at home to Georgia won 1-0. Goal scored on 76 minutes and the Sky Sports commentator said it was a big goal for the Republic of Ireland, i can hear the cheers from here.  Hmm..

Had the Swiss drawn, we would have had to beat the Danes x 2. By 1 will be hard enough.

We have scored 6 goals in a group with Gibraltar. As much as Id like to see us do well, the reality is we are shite.

We are as good as the players we have at our disposal.  While credit must be given to McCarthy and MO'N for their efforts, I would like to Brian Kerr being given another crack with the young crop we currently have.  He played nice, one touch football.

[red hander]

Kerr had his chance and proved to be a bottle merchant in couple of important games. The next manager has been decided anyway.

Anyone understand how the play-offs for the last 4 teams works?

UEFA website says the following, but I can't figure out how the ties are broken...

On the basis of the current European Qualifiers standings, the following teams would be involved in the play-offs (teams in bold confirmed):

Path A: Iceland, Bulgaria/Israel/Romania*, Wales/Slovakia/Republic of Ireland/Northern Ireland**
Path B: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Wales/Slovakia/Republic of Ireland/Northern Ireland**
Path C: Scotland, Norway, Serbia, Bulgaria/Israel/Romania*
Path D: Georgia, North Macedonia, Kosovo, Belarus

*In the current scenario, a draw would decide which of Bulgaria, Israel or Romania would fill the empty slot in Path C, and which two would go into Path A.

**In the current scenario, a draw would decide which three of Wales, Slovakia, Republic of Ireland or Northern Ireland would join Bosnia and Herzegovina in Path B, and which one would go into Path A.

[Ball Hopper]

Seems each of these groups will have a two semi-finals (single leg at home of higher seed) and a final to get to Euro 2020.

That Group B could be Bosnia & Herzegovina, Wales, ROI and NI, although a group A trip to Iceland would be fun for either of the teams with Ireland in their name.

No rigged draws allowed, I'm sure, unless FIFA get involved,

What's this. Checking things out before posting?

Going be one of Wales/Bosnia/Slovakia away with winner playing one of Wales/Bosnia/Slovakia/NI in one off game with venue decided via pot luck.
