We could lure him over with scent extract from his ballsack sprayed around the stadium. The pheromones would work on him and he would be attracted to being in the stadium and not know why.

Joachim Low? Do you think he wud stoop as low as us right now with the players he worked with!! I can just see him turning up at the 1st  training session and Matt Doherty takes 3 minutes to take a throw in down the line which goes off Knights back out for another throw in. Hed get into his Mercedes and have it away on his toes. 

Bertie Vogts ended up managing Scotland. Those Germans like a challenge. If he could teach Doherty to cross a ball, we would all chip in and buy him a new S Class.

130 games and manager since 2010 with a win percentage of 23.85 % isn't bad for luc Holtz and Luxembourg.

I completely agree with you

I think the opposite. They will completely overcomplicate the process and drag it out unnecessarily. They will probably struggle to agree on a suitable candidate and end up with an underwhelming name at the end of it.

Is that result not a prime example as to why he’s not up to the Ireland job?

I know you’re only saying he’ll likely become available but personally think he should be avoided.

Replacing a failed international manager with a failed international manager might not be the way to go. Chris Coleman and Réne Havard are much better options.

No need to rush an appointment for now. All the same you wouldn't want it dragging towards next summer. But there's three months now to sound out the relevant people and get a new man in before a squad needs to be announced for games in March. No doubt we'll have the Keanes and Lennon using their friends in the media to get their names into the mix. But we need the board to look beyond those types and find the best man for the job, not the biggest name.

It's a prime example of a manager taking on the wrong job. Never seemed a good fit. He should be in the running for the job with us if he is available. My number one choice would be Lee Carsley but if we are then onto Neil Lennon, Roy Keane territory should Carsley not want it then Hughton would be much preferable as would Steve Bruce imo.
