Brian Kerr has blasted Stephen Kenny's stint as Ireland boss and said 'he's not getting the job done'.
The Boys in Green put in one of their worst performances under Kenny as they were outplayed in their 2-1 loss to Greece on Friday night.
And Kerr was heavy on criticism when it came to talking about Kenny when appearing on Virgin Media on Saturday.

The former Ireland manager turned TV pundit also said that Kenny has received 'unprecedented support' from the FAI despite his record.
Appearing on the station, he said: "He has had unprecedented support in the job both resources-wise and results-wise. His results are actually the worst set of results of any manager that has ever managed Ireland and yet it has been non-stop support from the association. Four days in Bristol, nine or 10 days in Turkey for acclimatisation.
"It's an association that is crying out for money yet there is massive money being spent on the team. He's not been getting the job done, he has had four wins in 23 competitive games, 12 defeats. We've been out of the last three tournaments after two or three games.
"His aim was to win the Nations League group, we didn't and we got nowhere in it. His aim was to be competitive in this group and qualify. It was going to be difficult after the draw but we would have expected that we were going to go to Greece with all that preparation and all that investment and play well."
Kerr also felt that Kenny got his team selection and tactics wrong for Friday's game.
He added: "Managers are paid to get the selection right at the start and ensure that the tactics are correct for the game and find a way to get results irrespective of what players you have available. I felt from the start he got the selection wrong.
"I think the selection was wrong, the set up was wrong and the shape of the team was wrong. They were outplayed and didn't seem to understand that the Greek team were going to play the shape they did with the 4-3-3 with the fullbacks advancing.
"The actual performances in the game, the players looked tired and unready for the game."
