Hard to replace but its clear what a top class coach can add. Hopefully its good news.

yeah its 6/8 vs 8/10 but my thinking was Kilkenny would be ahead Sykes as a 6/8. hard to know until we see the squad

It might be really good to see something a little more experimental. We know everything we're going to know about Duffy, hourihane, hendrick, mcclean etc 

I'm not suggesting they wouldn't be key players in a competitive game, they definitely would, but these are friendlies and we should maybe look to take advantage of that.


Half agree. Lithuania should see a much changed side, but we need to field our strongest XI vs Belgium. The squad only started to settle in Oct/Nov but there were still some players missing, so Kenny really still hasn't a proper chance at getting his preferred XI playing together much. It's been nearly 5 months since the last games, they need to prep for the Nations League.

What's to be confused about? Sykes is playing at a higher level, one that Ronan has already struggled at.

Interview format and Tubridy asking poor questions and flip flopping between guests (ok that was the format) made for a sh*te interview. Wouldn’t take much from it.

Shocking air time and as usual from Tubridy forever interrupting his guests answers and/or answering for them before they get the chance to reply. Such a poor talk show host and interviewer.

I think Kenny would be a great guest and more suited to the Tommy Tiernan show. He has a way of connecting with people like Kenny and getting the best out of someone a bit quieter and reserved. Whenever Kenny opens up in a relaxed setting like that he has a lot of interesting stuff to talk about. Not just football but on life in general and the kid of person he is and how he thinks. He was very good on that supporters Q&A he done last year as well as well as other bits he done with OTB and LOI Weekly in the past.

behave LOL 

Watched it myself, spoke passionately about bringing young players through in the brief chat and then heartfelt about Ukraine when asked about the upcoming games. About to start crying is just about as over dramatic as you could get.

Interviewed on Late Late Show.  Thought he was about to start crying when he was speaking.  Quiver in the voice.

Any sign of a new coach?
