       Kris Lindsay appointed Senior Womens' Interim Manager

       Northern Ireland have appointed Kris Lindsay as interim manager
       for their first pair of 2027 Women's World Cup qualifiers in
       March.
       Tanya Oxtoby left the post to manage Newcastle United in
       November after two years in charge and, with no permanent
       replacement appointed, Lindsay will take charge of games away to
       Switzerland on 3 March and home to Turkey four days later.
       Lindsay, who is currently manager of the Northern Ireland men's
       under-16 team, was previously at the helm of Irish Premiership
       side Dungannon Swifts, and served as first-team coach for
       Cliftonville and Glenavon.
       Lindsay was also first-team coach for the Northern Ireland
       women's team when Gail Redmond was interim manager between the
       reigns of Oxtoby and previous manager Kenny Shiels in July 2023.

       wtf?
       [/quote]Probably a combination of can't attract/afford decent
       candidates, along with saving the cost of a salary for a few
       months.
