19 January 2006

Iar-imreoir d'fhoireann na hÉireann is ea Staunton a d'imir 102 uair, níos mó ná aon imreoir eile agus a chaith babhta de mar chaptaen ar an bhfoireann úd. Níl mórán taithí aige mar bhainisteoir ach mar leas-bhainisteoir le foireann Wallsall i Sasana. Tá Bobby Robson ceaptha mar chomhairleoir do Staunton, ag tabhairt san áireamh an taithí ollmhór aige mar bhainisteoir ar fhoireann náisiúnta Shasana, foirne shacar ar nós Ipswich, Barcelona, Lisbon, Newcastle agus eile.
