In a move that has left many scratching their heads, Dundalk FC announced on Monday the appointment of Stephen O'Donnell's successor.
Noel King marks his return to men's League of Ireland football for the first time in over two decades with a home game against Bohemians in Oriel Park this evening.
If Noel King's appointment as Dundalk manager seemed to come out of left-field, it was also a "surprise" to the man himself.
Former Sheffield Wednesday, UCD and Shamrock Rovers midfielder Paul Corry and RTÉ Sport's Anthony Pyne join Raf Diallo to talk about Ireland's manager hunt running up to September, the PFAI survey on domestic facilities, the LOI weekend including an incident at Derry City, Damien Duff's comments on Shane Farrell and Dundalk anointing Noel King as manager. Plus, they talk Manchester United's FA Cup escape, the Premier League title race and Nottingham Forest's extraordinary statement.
New Dundalk boss Noel King says the only way for him to win over the Lilywhites faithful is to deliver victories as he looks to hit the ground running following his surprise appointment.
Derry City boss Ruaidhri Higgins got the response he wanted from his side after Friday's defeat to Shamrock Rovers, as they saw off St Patrick's Athletic for the second time this season.
Sligo Rovers are without a win in their last four and have now failed to find the net in three of those games after they could only manage a scoreless draw with Galway United at The Showgrounds.
Ten man Shelbourne maintained their top of the table status, holding champions Shamrock Rovers to yet another scoreless draw at Tolka Park.
