The 3 subs brought on together the last day hardly did enough to start this evening. I thought all 3 were worse than those taken off.

West Brom manager gone
at 13:46 3 Feb 2022

It’s amazing how clubs think it’s the manager that’s the problem. Lampard gets a squad with players signed by 7 managers.
How many managers did we go through before it dawned on someone that other factors are often the problem.

Yes but if he was competent, sent him off for violent conduct, he’d get a 3 game ban, same result

Republic Of Ireland

Ireland is a sport mad country and if soccer was the main sport in the country we would have a great national team. I’m involved with an amateur rural club in Kilkenny which unfortunately is in direct competition with hurling, which in itself is a great game.
When I played in the early 80s the soccer club played in a farmer’s field, like most clubs. Since then we have bought our own land and since I got involved again in the club in the early 00s we have invested over a million euro which wag grant aided by €250k. We got zero from the FAI.
I see good under 12s, 13s 14s but in almost all cases the better players choose hurling at 14/15.
Of course that’s their choice but then you see county players bemoaning the fact they can’t make a career from sport even though they make a lot of sacrifices to stay on the county team.
I’ve heard interviews with Damien Delaney and David Meyler and luckily they kept playing soccer as well as Gaelic football and were in a position to choose at 18. Both played county minor as far as I can remember.
While Gaelic games remain the sport of choice for so many, soccer will always struggle.
Meanwhile “soccer people “ will continue to promote and grow the game.
