An amusing interview with David O'Leary has appeared on the BBC website. Even with free rein to answer the questions as he wishes, he comes across as sad & lonely.
"What do you fill your time with these days? I travel around an awful lot - Scotland, Ireland, North Yorkshire, all in a week. I do planes and trains and tend to cover the miles. It's not purely football-related, but because I have been in football you get asked to do various things. I could be playing a round of golf, attending a dinner, working with business."

Surely he must be top candidate for the next manager at the Noses ?
-
I'm amazed he doesn't look out for our results, I thought he loved us.
-
Not one mention for us, thankfully. Hopefully one day people will have forgotten we were ever associated with this utter penis of a man.
For us, however, the memory will forever remain.
-
While McLeish was a worse manager , DOL was an utter vile c^6nt
-
I see he's as open-minded and curious as ever
I haven't got a clue about it (Twitter) and can't stand it. I can't see the point. I wouldn't do it as a player or a manager.
He can't stand something he hasn't a clue about.
This interview just underlines how limited the man is.
-
To be fair, he only says he wouldn't do it as a player or a manager. He doesn't rule it out as an unemployable twat.
-
I can't help think if he had handled his last season with us in a diffrent way and not managed to turn all fans against him (Remember Doug was still in charge and times were desperate) then perhaps he might be a football manager now. That said he had no respect for the club and was worse than AMC.

O'Leary?
Jesus.
It's like a group of women with streaked mascara crying into their Lambrini over what "that bastard" did to them. They've met somebody else who dotes on the kids but they just can't let it go.

I think I've seen this somewhere before!, just because you move on doesn't mean you can't talk about the bad times, they are what make the good times even better.
"How can Leeds get back into the top flight? Like anybody it's about acquiring good players, good enough to get you out of that division."
No shit sherlock, wonder if he worked that out all by himself.

We're not fickle. We still don't like you.

They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Coming soon to a website near you - Tommy Docherty, what a ******.

What Legion said.

An interview with the bloke has appeared on the Beeb website which prompted the thread.
Considering his unprovoked, spiteful attitude to Aston Villa whilst in the employment of the club, any opportunity to call him a c***t should not be passed up.
-
In fairness Chris' original line was the best simile I've seen on here since Bad English's heyday.
-
His first season with us was good though.

it looks even better when you think he only signed Sorenson and Gavin McCann.
and Solano in January.

I thought he might have developed a Toblerone addiction and driven to Dundee in his bare feet.

Who?

He does come across a bit Partridge, doesn't he.

Err, you know we're talking here about O'Dreary, not MON, don't you?
;)

God I still hate that bloke. I was going to put his name in celebrity deathwatch, but I dont think he is entitled to that C word. I like Katie Price more than that twat.

We just can't compete with the Boltons and the Birminghams

wasn't it Charlton? (I may be wrong. I've tried many times to forget him).

Still a pug nosed annoying tit I see.

Funny how we've had no problem competing with the Charltons since he got sacked.

haha! I'd say appointing Iain Dowie is a great leveller.
-
Good first season but a complete wretched 18 months afterwards with him disrespecting our club and fans on a daily basis.
-

From memory, we lost there (I think it was 3-0) and we barely got a look at the ball, that's what prompted the remark
'People expect us to be a top side, but we're competing on the same level as the Charltons of this world'
Which was an ironic thing to say as they'd just bitch slapped us.
He was forever talking us down and I seem to recall him moaning about the way we often mention the European Cup win.
I really believe he had an intense dislike of our club which wasn't helped by the fact that he never had closure from his beloved Leeds.
-
I don't think he disliked us, he just never got over Leeds. I was told he always expected to get the call to return and was devastated when they chose someone else - I think it was around 2004-5.

Ive told this story before on here several years ago. I met him a couple of years after he'd been sacked at Royal Portrush golf club in the bar after a game with some friends. He was a guest of a corporate group, clearly so popular with them he was sat at the bar on his own.
He was quite chatty with me and my mate, we talked about golf, football and that part of the world as we sat and drank a few Guinness with him.
It all started to turn a bit nasty when he realised we were Villa fans at one point even telling us that 'he knew people' if we didn't leave him alone. We were perfectly friendly and not at all provocative in our discussion with him, he just flared up as soon as he twigged us.
Self obsessed obnoxious chicken shit gobshite are the best words I can find to describe him.

Just shows how guilty he must have felt about his time here.

You should have stood in the car park and cheered as he left.
