Brian Kerr was appointed as technical advisor to interim manager John O'Shea for the friendlies against Belgium and Switzerland.
The former underage and senior manager, who won European titles at Under-16 and Under-18 level, hadn’t worked in the FAI since late 2005.
“You are looking at non-qualification for tournaments. I’ve aired my frustrations over the last few years working in the media on that. “But the game is still about working hard, trying to win the ball back in the best areas possible on the pitch, getting people forward, getting people in the box, getting numbers behind the ball when you haven’t got the ball. Those basic principles haven’t changed.
