I'm afraid to say yes, they may well suffer. It's no surprise that their fortunes have picked up as soon as he took over as manager. They have made a lot of progress in the past 3 years, and this is down to a manager who has a good record of getting 'lesser' teams to punch above their weight. I hope they continue to progress, for their own sake. A Northern Ireland team hasn't qualified for a majour tournament in 21 years, and it's always good to see smaller nations transcending their previous achievements.

it's really too early to tell. but it does have some sort of effect (positive or negative). the ifa were surely placed in a tight situation. they have about 3 months to replace sanchez.
according to the guardian "no replacement has been lined up according to the IFA but speculation immediately centred on former Northern Ireland players managing in England: Jim Magilton, Nigel Worthington and Iain Dowie."

He seemed to be the catalyst for the turning around of N.I. fortunes, but ultimately it's about the players, and if David Healy can keep banging them in, who knows.

probably, and it will be a shame for them not to qualify after all the hard work so far, the bloke must be crazy !

i think its a very strange move. we are on the verge of qualifying for the European championships like in ..............................................................................................forever. forever.
but boycey is no mug he will get compensation and who knows we might get the railway stand fixed after all.
Iain dowie wants the job but under these circumstances he might hold back.
i am still hopeful healy can single-handedly see us through.
