A Football Spin Special as O’Neill and Keane depart- the case for Stephen Kenny and the eternal appeal of Sven-Goran Eriksson

JOE

Martin O’Neill and Roy Keane have left their positions by mutual agreement, but what now for Irish football?

Is this a good day for the national team?

On The Football Spin, Dion Fanning, Paddy McKenna and Rob Redmond reflect on what the news means for Irish football, what should happen now and why is Sven-Goran Eriksson being mentioned?

Rob makes a detailed case for Stephen Kenny but if Mick McCarthy takes the job, what will he bring to it second time round? Dion explains why he feels Mick was harshly treated in 2002 but also believes that Stephen Kenny is the man for the job.

But there should be no talk of Big Sam or Big Hector or any of the usual candidate. This is a time for something different.
