The New ROI football manager thread

The more I think about this the more I think this could be a genius move initiated by Mr Delaney.

Second captains have something on chatsnap or Instagram about a lad in an FAI tracksuit waiting in Dublin airport for Jim McGuinness. He’d hardly be in the backroom team would he?

Thrilled to see Mick back. A decent, honourable man hounded our of his job last time out far too soon.

First sports book I ever read:

I am not a major soccer fan but I have just tuned into the press conference with John Delaney.
The take away points are

  • The FAI have a brilliant leader
  • The FAI have a world class underage structure
  • John Delaney works his ass off for soccer in Ireland and his salary barely pays for the petrol for his car

The underage set up is looking really good now tbh

I love the way Delaney gets out the hair gel for the big pressers and speeches.

A top, top man.

they are giving him 25k a week :grin: the scummy soccer lads must be fucking rotten with money

Succinct but accurate analysis of Irish football well done @Esso_Oil

The biggest scumbag on this forum calling the soccer crowd scummy.
Sure you couldn’t make it up.

was McCarthy really booed off of the pitch in his last Eire game in Dublin 16 years ago? he is back now and they are giving him 25k a week despite them not having a pot to piss in :grinning:
The LOI scummy soccer champions get something around 100k for winning the domestic scummy soccer league
Big Mick will have 400k of fai money in his pocket by the time his first match in charge comes around and in the same time frame Mr Delaney will have trousered 100k. :laughing:

how much will yerman Terry Connors be getting does anyone know?

have the wages been confirmed mate?

I’d say there are Ipswich fans foaming at the mouth reading that :joy:
