    About time Kerr got some recognition. It is weird to think that the Israel manager Avram Grant got to Manage Chelsea whilst Kerr couldn't get a job in football after managing an Ireland side that came pretty close to qualifying. He hasn't done a bad job at the Faroes either. Good luck to him

    He declined. Said its not possible to fully give yourself to two jobs at once.

    Fair play to him for turning down the paycheck.

    Wasted at the faroes tbh. The sooner the better he gets back into mainstream football. Defo a risk worth taking for somebody

    Would have liked to see him at Newcastle but soon as i heard it my gut reaction was he wouldnt take it.

    Should be involved at a high level within the FAI , possibly overseeing grassroots developments but those bridges i imagine are burned

    Defo gave an interview about it today, but I suppose the bit I heard could be talking about it in general.
