The pressure continues to grow on Ireland manager Martin O'Neill, who has been cut from 5-2 to 2-1 by BoyleSports to leave his position before the start of the European Championship qualifiers in March.

Thursday's 0-0 home bore draw against Northern Ireland was the latest poor performance from Ireland, who have one win in their last ten matches and failed to score in each of the last three.

"Our keeper (Darren Randolph) was man of the match and that says it all," said defender Seamus Coleman after the derby stalemate in Dublin. O'Neill's next attempt at finding a solution comes away to Denmark in the Nations League on Monday.

Boyles also offer 1-2 that O'Neill won't be at the helm when Euro 2020 starts and Paddy Power rate Mick McCarthy 7-2 favourite to become Ireland's next manager.
