Dundalk more points in Europe than United 🙈

[westcorklad]

and now is he going to be sacked in the next 24 hours. After just one game in charge.

Yeah it may well turn out that way. Big Sam should have kept his big mouth shut as he may now go into the record books as the shortest lasting England manager, since WW2 at least.

[westcorklad]

its official, big sam is gone. What a disaster for him. Was it about 67 days he was in charge?

I believe it was so that's that. The search is on for a new manager.

Gareth Southgate is to take charge for the next three England games.

[Barney Rubble]

Well he will probably be the only English manager with 100% success rate !!

Dundalk beat Cork City 2-1 in the League tonight and are now four points clear with five games to go. That may have been a title decider. Martin O Neill was at the match so are there any international call ups on the horizon for the players?

[westcorklad]

I would be very surprised if there were any international call ups from the loi. Maybe martin was just putting in an appearance but time will tell. Also i wouldn't rule cork out of the title race just yet. Dundalk have a hectic scheldule coming up and may still drop points. But a good win for them tonight.

The Dundalk keeper got a call up for the Serbia match last month even though he stayed on the bench,so who knows. If Dundalk manage to qualify for the knockout stages of the Europa League there will surely be some international recognition for one or two more of them. Its not as if the current Irish squad is overflowing with world class players.
