Just on the Radio - Delaney will appear at 6o clock on TV to speak of Stauntons future!

That's usually not a good sign but I don't know what to think.

What station?

If you fancy a bet he's 11/10 on Betfair to not be in charge for the Wales match.

might be worth the risk to have your computer ready and waiting, ready to press "confirm" while watching at 6. Potential guaranteed money.

was on Today Fm, sounds promising he nearly wet himself with excitement

I'm sure ya can wait 18 more minutes :D

He's going to back Staunton:(...I feel it in my blood.

He'll come out with nothing new (ala previous six-one news appearances from him) and we will be further enraged and I will have that heart attack thats been threatening after last nights debacle!

tdv

He better not start talking about "going forward" again.

Betfair activity has jumped. $2600 matched in the last few minutes. Odds on him leaving drifted slightly slightly to 2.34. That just went straight in to 1.27.

Could it be Delaney himself manipulating the market trying to garner funds to lure a triple threat management team of Pat Dolan, Roddy Collins and Pete Mahon?:)

Mr Alan

Quite the little gambler arent ya Eirebhoy?!

Stargal

The guy who gave me the tip-off that started this whole thread said to watch the 6.1 news for an announcement.

If he's wrong then I'm very very sorry. But he has impeccable sources and he's not usually wrong about this stuff.

Really starting to get nervous now. I was at croker last night and I've never seen such a hostile crowd at an Ireland game. Was an unreal and eerie atmosphere

Same here BUT! Stargal's most recent posts have given me a good dose of hope.


And now we play the waiting game......

Hail Mary, full of Grace.......how does it go again? Haven't used it for a while.

Gary ITR

looks like bull to me

YeatsCounty

It looks like it'll be left up to the FAI Board to decide Stan's fate, if I heard the clip of Delaney talking on the Six-One news introduction correctly.

Tellox

"discuss the future".. more than likely no major announcement being made today.

Still, I stand by saying that a good manager wont mean good players.

The Volt

nothing on sky anyway =/

True, but we still need a manager that can motivate and organise...and talk.

darkman2

Sorry guys, no announcement. We would know by now.:(


Delaney is just going to say the usual BS.

Crowd was much more hostile at Mick's last game against the Swiss, Bertie got a right booing that night too.

according to today fm, looks like he'll be kept

It's a conspiracy. The FAI are bullying journalists. Everyone is afraid....

Of what?? Dunphy was on about the FAI being bullies. Why is anyone afraid of them?

Xavi6

Can't believe I waited up for this.

Necronomicon

The 6-1 news just said something about a stay of execution as the FAI call for 'a review'

FFS

YeatsCounty

According to RTE News, Stan's had a "stay of execution" as the FAI calls for a review.

What's to review??? :mad:

darkman2

LOL! Stans stays and the FAI are going to have a 'review':mad:

End of review.

Train Driver

In a unprecented move Irish rail employeed Steve to drive the train to Cork. Steve proved himself as an outstanding driver even though he had no training. An experienced driver was appointed by Irish rail to assist Steve but was too ill to actually make any trips. Although none of the trains piolited by Staunton actually made it as far as Cork Irish Rail claimed that their service level was up 130% on attempts and announced a 4 year plan to actually get a train to Cork

How best to shame him into resigning so they don't have to pay him off?

How to make his death look like an accident?

Or most likely how the FAI top brass can get rid of Steve "World Class Manager" Staunton while saving their own necks?

Andrew 83

A friend of mine who works in the Star texted me about an hour ago saying they were expecting him to go in the office.

BaZmO*

He's not going anywhere the 6:01 news would of led with the story if Delaney was gonna say that Stan was getting the booth.

It'll be the usual, "Building for the future, 4 year contract, New manager" bollóx.

Yeah, so it said on their front page.

"STAN WILL BE SACKED TODAY."

God I hate the star. My own fault for believing them.
