Pat Fenlon on RTE Radio implying that Delaney is the main problem. He believes most of the issues in Irish football trace back to him (without actually naming him) and that it's crying out for new people.

I’m sure you mean you’ll just take less interest rather than not supporting Ireland. And that is what will hurt. It becomes a snowball, people stop attending matches, tv attendances are down, sponsors pay less. Before you know it, we won’t even get the three friendlies from the likes of Rice.

Close the door on your way out. We'll just have to stagger on and cope without your support of our national football (soccer me bollocks) team. |

John Delaney is no fan of Irish football. He is a leech to Irish football. There used to be a time when I would be buzzing when an Ireland game was on that evening. I would be looking forward to it all day. Now I don't get near as emotional or feel that love for the team that I used to. As a big LOI fan I see what Delaney has done to football in this country. The LOI fans have been saying it for years, everybody else didnt want to know or care about Delaney and the jobs for the boys. It's depressing, it really is, to see the crap that is going on up and down the country and gives a real bad taste toward the national team. Nothing will change until the people at the top care about Irish football, really care and respect about ALL aspects of it.

Just home from work and had a million thoughts on irish football going through my mind all day. As a player the highlight of any player is to appear at a world cup same goes for supporters. I was not in a position in 2002 to travel due to family reasons and before that I was too young and lacked the finances so like the majority on here we would all love to hear the national anthem on a world stage again. The thing is JD will now look for a short term fix should the fai decide to change our management team with euro 2020 around the corner but in reality seeing the boys in green playing at euro2020 in Dublin or Bilbao is only a dream at the moment.
However with plenty of potential in the U17's and U19's its time to concentrate on a few of these lads. Obviously these lads need to be kept well clear of the current U21 management team and the current U17 & U19 management team step up to the U19 and U21 set up respectively. We have two meaningless games coming up against Northern Ireland (friendly) and Denmark (Nations league) wouldn't it be great to see the likes of Caoimin Kelleher, Troy Parrot and Adam Idah get a few full international minutes under their belt under new management, In Kellehers case he probably should nearly be included on merit as Randolph has not impressed me the past twelve months anyway. For me this morning I felt I was more angry than disappointed but their can be a glimmer of hope at the end if a few small changes are made. I do feel euro2020 maybe beyond us but Qatar in 2022 could be my best chance of following ireland at a world cup. Ill be 47 years old by then, time is running out.

Dead right. Noel King (aka job for life) would bring them back to the acceptable neanderthal stage.

I'd keep him over some of the names mentioned here as his replacement. Felt the same about Trap when it became clear MON was looking like he was going to replace him.

Says he’ll get us to euro 2020, when asked why he’s so confident his reply was “because I’m good” aye course you are.

Meanwhile, Slovenia have sacked their manager after one draw and two losses in the Nations League.

Name me one coach that the FAI paid significant compo to put in charge before. Assistants don't count. There's a touch of the "Paul Jewell" about some of the candidates. As for Lennon, he's another washed up ex-Celtic head, whose level is the SPL. Allardyce would be even worse than who we currently have, and probably would be off as soon as a EPL club needed someone to keep them up. I said before that the job would be ideal for someone such as Slaven Bilic, and I haven't seen a better candidate yet. I know there's more chance of me getting the gig, than him getting it, but we need to seriously think where we want to be 5-10 years down the line, and there hasn't been much of that so far. Lennon and Allardyce bring nothing new to the table. Hughton had his chance with Kerr and didn't do a great job. MON would be long gone out of here if UEFA didn't hand third place teams yet another chance to make the Euros. We won't qualify for the next tournament with him there, as international football has progressed in the time since, while he hasn't. Even the basics are an issue for him now. That said, I don't see the point in removing him until this NL campaign is over. We tried to pull a fast one by sacking Trap with 2 qualifying games still to play, and our results nosedived over the next 12 months. Let him finish up the NL campaign fwiw, and then decide if we want the chance of progression or stagnation.
