It was his attitude when manager that completely turned a lot of fans off him. Saying things like 'San Marino will cause teams problems' after we scraped past them and being so bull headed about being the right person in charge when he was so clearly out of his depth really annoyed me at the time.

Great player but really let himself down when manager IMO

Agreed. One of the finest ever players in the green. One of the standout moments was him taking Mick's arse out of the bacon slicer in Malta, although it might have made things a touch easier for him down the line if he hadn't.
I would argue that he became a figure of fun in Orlando in 1994, long before any managerial misadventures!

That cap during the anthems LOL

Like Graeme Souness or Bryan Robson, Steve Staunton is someone whose reputation as a great player has been sullied by a less that stellar management career.  You know things are bad if your name is booed when it is merely read out as an answer to a half time quiz question (Germany at Croker, 2007)

Paul Lennon reporting in The Star that Staunton is interested. Reads like Stan has thrown him a line and this has been translated to Stan being in serious consideration on the radio bulletin. 

Perth doesn't have his pro licence so they'll need a figurehead to do a Bobby Brown on it. Their prerogative I guess.

That's terrible.LOLLOL
