Robbie Keane and Kenny Cunningham are two of the names linked to the vacant managerial position at St Pat’s.
In football, though, there is always a significant distance from rumour to an actual appointment and it is worth remembering that Cunningham’s name was connected to the St Pat’s job before, back in 2018, following Liam Buckley’s departure. On that occasion Harry Kenny ended up getting it.
Yet Cunningham remains an intriguing option, his profile high following a brilliant playing career, which included a three-year spell as Ireland captain under Brian Kerr’s management.
