The recruitment process for the new Republic of Ireland head coach is seen as a disaster, with John O'Shea and Gus Poyet being considered for the role. However, their appointment is not the main issue.
If John O’Shea or Gus Poyet ends up being appointed as the new Republic of Ireland head coach , we will know the recruitment process was a complete disasterJohn O'Shea could not possibly be ready for the role of Republic of Ireland manager but he would be a better appointment than Gus Poyet , believes Kevin Kilbane.
The reports, if true, are depressing, but any manager would be mad to take this job without his own backroom in place.Of course that’s not their style. Canham’s rhetoric is straight from a coaching-badges course. Confident proclamations. Vague assurances. Fake it until you make it.Enough ifs, buts, maybes. After such a drawn-out “professional” process, a big fish has to appear on the hook.
The chief executive must explain his “perfect” email and he needs to defend Canham’s “robust” recruitment process, or both their positions are untenable. Eventually, they will have to explain themselves, having ducked and dived since June 2023, when it was clear to everyone that change was needed. Otherwise, Irish fans will wonder if the English football industry sold the FAI not one, but two pups.
