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 O’Shea to audition for the job
- End up hiring their “first-choice” manager who happens to be a dentist
- Heimir decides he doesn’t know enough about the players so doesn’t 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 €100k for winning it. They also rely on European revenue where games don’t even get shown on Irish TV. Only country in Europe that happens in.
It’s no exaggeration to say that the FAI have well and truly failed Irish football.
What a mess.
@OReilly_Jor And the list of players that who have gone over under his development.. : Evan Fergason, Devoy, Promise, Tierney, Georgie Kelly, Warren O Hora to name a few..
@OReilly_Jor Agree on Promise, simply has to be played through the middle. Junior a good option as a sub.
3 goals last night could easily be avoidable. 1st keeper, 2nd Murphy again caught out not doing his job at the back post, 3rd stupid push by Doherty leads to the OG. Story of our season.
On this Day 2018 we lost a good friend like many others sadly to early to suicide Cian Mullally.
Ok2TalkIrl charity was set up in his memory, thanks to @pauliebohs74 & @TheGypsiesTrust for donating a signed jersey for Cians charity.
