The last few months for Irish football:
- Sacked Stephen Kenny last November
- FAI takes 7 months to find replacement
- 4 friendlies in that time for John OโShea to audition for the job
- End up hiring their โfirst-choiceโ manager who happens to be a dentist
- Heimir decides he doesnโt know enough about the players so doesnโt pick squad/team or do all the press conferences
- 0 goals in 180 minutes
- 4 goals conceded
- No clear structure on pitch
- Facing Nations League relegation
- Can only buy tickets in three-match bundles
Meanwhile, the League of Ireland champions get just over โฌ100k for winning it. They also rely on European revenue where games donโt even get shown on Irish TV. Only country in Europe that happens in.
Itโs no exaggeration to say that the FAI have well and truly failed Irish football.
What a mess.
