Paul Spector 0 Posted January 15, 2009 Nobody actually knows whether we did, or did not make an approach for Worthy, apart from the 2 parties involved.It could all be an act by the Irish FA to put us off if we were considering to. Lets at least give the board a chance to tell us their side of the story. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatCanary 0 Posted January 15, 2009 The IFA said they HAVE turned down Citys approach, why would they make that up? Face it the board have made their choice, and it''s the wrong one!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
canary cherub 1 Posted January 15, 2009 This is the official statement on the IFA website:"On Thursday evening, the Irish FA turned down a request from Norwich City FC to speak to the Northern Ireland Manager (Nigel Worthington) with regards to their vacant managerial position."

Branston Pickle 4,150 Posted January 15, 2009 ...why assume it is a case of truth/lie, either. I don''t suppose anyone has ever heard of a misunderstanding/mistake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Someone must be lying, why automatically assume it is the board?[/quote]They have denied making a "formal approach".So what''s one of them when it''s at home? Is it the same as the "request to speak to" which the IFA say they turned down? Or not?Usual weasel words from the Chief Exec I''m afraid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
