A good article. My own view is that the O'Niell/Clough dimension is little more than spin. O'Neill perceived a media structure being erected and stepped inside it. Martin O'Neill has never made it at the highest level and now probably never will. Dave summed it up for me when we chatted before the West Ham game and said he felt O'Neill is a top six manager but not a top four manager.

Thanks for the praise, but Si and Stuart Griffin also helped to get everything sorted so thanks to them as well.
