The Martin O'Neill thread (with added sacking #2188)

[damon loves JT]

I like Sunderland as a club but I wouldn't bet against them for relegation.

I can see the wanker quitting in the next few weeks.

He's been sussed, good and proper.

With the booing, I reckon he'll figure this is the best time for him to bail out and protect his reputation - the accusations would be that the Sunderland fans drove him out.

We said something similar during the game when our fans gave him a quick rendition of 'you're getting sacked in the morning'.  He'll walk before he gets sacked.

Pauline, you're in Edinburgh, get off the Internet and enjoy the city!

[villajk]

Jon is just off to work.  Tomorrow we hit the city in style.  Can't wait.

I would like to raise a glass to all those who realised he was a one trick pony about 18 months before every one else did. Cheers, UTV

I was never a fan when we first got him, although I admit he did bring a feel good factor to the club, however, i now fear most of that was down to the new ownership.

I'll drink to that.

He looked pretty subdued in the post match interview. Is he ok do you think? *clutches pearls*

[Steve R]

We have a new manager now. A good one! Let the legend that was MON lie..

...

I agree.

Well, actually, I don't.

I loved every useless minute his team spent on the pitch today, and the post match thread has bettered anything the Bard managed to put together.

[Brian Taylor]

Enjoy MON's misery now that he is in lesser circumstances, while you will. He did well, for us,  while he was here; to a point. Randy f*cked him and maybe he, MON, f*cked himself to a degree. It is over now; over!. PL is the man now. Leave MON to sort his new NE problems out.
Up the Villa! That is what it is about and what I care about..I care about the future not the past! The past was great, and I love what we did, but the future can be better, and it will be! The rest is irrelevant!!

[PeterWithesShin]

We've been a bit harsh on Martin recently, so i'd like to sing him a song that conveys my respect for the man, the myth, the legend, that is Martin O'Neill.

To the tune of the city is ours: Pubes on his head, pubes on his head, Martin O'Neill, has pubes on his head.

I'm dead mature me.

I always love the smell of vinyl in the morning...it smells like victory.

Pubeheads don't surf.

[supertom]

You saw his face towards the end of the game and you knew he knew that it was over. It was fucking priceless. I fancy us to take 6 points off them this season too. If that contributes to sending them down then fantastic. Nowt against Sunderland, but I'd love O Neill to have a relegation on his CV.

[kipeye]

It ain't over till she sings... I was one of his biggest fans and doubts only started after Moscow. Like Tony Blair winning his first election-two good years then the rest of the time going backwards.
Time to move on and wish him no harm for the future.

[Risso]

Was he doing that looking at the floor thing?  I do hope so.

[Holte L2]

I would also like the apologize to the people who found MON out before I. I was very much in the pro MON camp right up until I saw him spunking Sunderlands money. We have a great manager in Lambert, and the future will be great,if we stick with it.
