Stephen Kenny post Nations League poll

No, if you put Conor Hourihane on the pitch then your judgement is badly impaired. 

I like Kenny but he needs to be more honest when he speaks to the media moving forward.

Thanks for blooding players but now is the time for a real manager to take over (if one can be found).

Was a huge fan of his appointment and have been extremely pro Kenny but at this stage I'm saying twist. Regardless of the group we get, it feels like we could drop points against anyone home or away in our first game and it's campaign over from day one. I appreciate what he is trying to do, there is still a chance it could come good. I also think we will be better off in the future for the work he has done and that there is no obvious candidate to replace him.

It boils down to this. 2 years in and we've reaches a point where an Ireland team may turn up and smash Scotland or lose to Armenia. There's something seriously wrong there.

The majority of people who have commented as voting stay have acknowledged they do not believe he can get us to the Euros.

We know where we're at with Kenny. There's always hope with change. The whole thing is so grim.  I haven’t given up hope on Kenny just get  He deserves this next campaign He’s partway through attempting to build something, don’t see the point in scrapping that at this stage. It’s not like we have a star studded panel that another manager would turn around instantly

I have not felt deflated about the team for a while. At times it felt like Kenny was onto something and we moved one step forward but then we go two steps back almost as soon as we gain some hope. We can't seem to build momentum- we look defensively suspect and soft whilst we can't hold onto leads. I am sick of hearing the mantra we don't have the players. If we don't have the fecking players then play to our strengths. Defensively sound and tough to beat. But no that's boring hoofball. We should play open football with players not capable. Great idea.
