    The papers were saying that he doesn't, but Brady speaks Italian, so it's likely he'll come in handy in that respect.

    He speaks German though, if that's any use to ye :)

    Off topic but Brady's Italian pronunciation is terrible for a guy that can speak it fluently and lived there for 7 years. Surely having spent a couple of years at Juventus he'd realise that the J is silent. :)

    It'll be interesting to see if Brady gets the assistant's job. I read tonight that he won't.

    yeah the papers say that brady will be involved with the management team in some sort of capacity....he'll clearly be the translater!! i cant wait for trap to come and batter some of these primaddonas we call footballers, finally a manager that will help us and will probably get the full potential out of our talented players! ( i just pray he takes the captains armband off robbie "hamburgular" keane)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    and i thought the FAI and the managment had reason to be scared of keano during his time with the sqaud, they wont know what hit them if the team fails to perform now, i really hope they do have trapattoni and dont disapoint us tomoorow

    :D

    I'd be happy to have Brady on board, he is the only current Irishman who has found any real success on the coaching side of things (bar maybe Roy Keane)

    Ahhhh.... an old, bad tempered Italian... you can't beat 'em! ;) Not to mention he almost wacked the lads sitting beside him a few times... lets hope he does that to Delaney! :D

    Unfortunately he wont do that tomorrow as he wont be there:(

    It would be hilarious (and also soul-destroying!) if they announced tomorrow that El Tel is the new manager :D Hey, he speaks English at least!

    dont tempt fate, delaney did say that the irish public would be very excited by the anouncment, although all the signs do point towards trapatonni now, think the main one was the comments a few weeks ago of the FAI waiting till the summer if need be and trapatonni not being avaialable till then

    :cool:

    Do ya' know what? What if this Trappatoni thing has just been put there to have us in a wild goose chase and then the FAIlures turn up with Jason McAteer?!?! Could you imagine how bad that would be!?! :mad:

    *thinks back to Stans appointment*
    Oh wait... yes I can.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,900 ✭✭✭V9

    I'd be happy with McAteer as long as Ruddock is his assistant and they both have to do after match interviews together!
