Our manager

[ewe2]

Would our manager be tempted ,if offered ,with the Irish managers job should O'Neil go to Leicester ?

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Doubt it. He seems to have signed up to the albion project.

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

I'm sure he'd be tempted. But whether he'd take it is another matter. Ireland aren't a particularly good team at the moment.

Actually, neither are we ...

 

[Albumen]

I don't want to be negative but no.

 

[Paris]

O'Neill to Leicester reeks of Adams part 2. ROI are as good as out of contention in a European Championship qualifying group where two teams qualify automatically and the 3rd placed team either qualifies or goes into a play-off. In short that's pretty poor. The Heady days of Jack Charlton and Mick McCarthy(2002) must seem a distant memory to their fans. If offered the opportunity Chris would be mad to even consider it. A choice between Andy Naylor and Eamon Dunphy.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Why would Hughton, after a period out of the game, chuck it in now, and take a big pay cut?

 

[8ace]

Roy Keane would be the obvious choice.

 

[Gullflyinghigh]

I'd think it'd be possible.

All but the very top managers seem to genuinely aspire to manage their country and it's the sort of opportunity that may only come around once in a lifetime.

That said, I don't believe that he'd be the first choice.

 

[deletebeepbeepbeep]

Hopefully he is offered it and takes it!

 

[The Merry Prankster]

Hopefully he is offered it and takes it!

Esta.

 

[Lurchy]

Roy Keane would be the obvious choice.

Definitely this. Keane taking over full time would be the logical move, seeing as he's already O'Neills number 2 and that he quit his assistant managers role at Villa to concentrate on his Ireland role.

Wouldn't surprise me if Hughton goes onto manage Ireland later in life though.

 

[Cadiz Seagull]

I'd give the Ireland job to Andy Townsend

Anything to get him away from commentating

 

[Rookie]

If offered I doubt he would take it, but I wouldn't be upset if he did

 

[sir albion]

Hopefully he is offered it and takes it!

Doubt he'd be good enough for even being considered....If the Irish like seeing 1 goal every 3 games then he's ideal.

 

[Icy Gull]

Serious lack of enthusiasm and lack of concern from Albion fans on this thread, doesn't bode well for CH if we start badly. The Amex is a grim place when the fans are disgruntled.

 

[BensGrandad]

or Lawro.

 

[Foul Play Rocks]

I thought this was going to be a thread about how our manager either can't say or chooses not to pronounce properly the word competitive. I just watched his video on SP and he keeps saying "compeddative".
I don't know. These youngsters and their street talk.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

I think he might well consider it if he could somehow get Zamora to play for R.o.I.

 

[NooBHA]

He is not interested in International management jobs at this point in time in his career. He was offered 2 International jobs when he was out of work and turned them both down so he wont be taking the Ireland job, if offered

 

[Insel affe]

I think he might well consider it if he could somehow get Zamora to play for R.o.I.

Eh....

Not much chance of that then....

He can't get him to play for BHAFC
