If John O'Shea plays this right they might rename the Shard after him.

One less tricky decision for the manager to make, I guess. Nuts how many young players have had this injury. Used to be something people only got in middle age.

Yes but also lessens the pressure on Kelleher to leave Liverpool unfortunately. Forest were sniffing around him but he's too good to drop down to the Championship if Forest get relegated IMO

In the absence of an outstanding candidate surely the role should go to one of our own, who it will mean the world to, rather than some fourth-rate journeyman taking the job because it's available.

Do we reckon anyone at the FAI has thought to pick up the phone and check would Moyes be interested in the gig?

Ha! Was about to post the same thing. Either we listen to the same podcasts or you and the Second Captains came up with the same idea simultaneously.

I’d take him. I think.
Only pods I listen to are the Talk of the Devils and this one with two mental Australians called Neurotic News.

Does make a lot of sense from our point of view though. I’m just not sure would he be interested?

I was listening to them this morning after reading that post. I was sure he'd got it from them but maybe not.

We could do a lot worse than Moyes for Ireland to be fair.

He'd be brilliant for us but he's out of our range in terms of money and status.

In hindsight McKenna would've been great.

Dundalk keeper banned for ten games. Think he's on loan from Nottingham Forest.
