For all the advancement we made under MON it was based solely upon Randy continuing to blindly invest in the club. Once that stopped MON self interest took over

A cup final, which we probably would have won if it wasn't for that awful referee.As for his exit, meh. It still annoys me tremendously.To be honest, although the referee fucked it up, there's still no guarantee - far from it - that we'd have won that game.We played twice at Wembley last season, and although I had a lovely day both times, we must have managed 3 shots on goal across the entire 180 minutes, and one of those was a penalty.Of course there is no guarantee, that's why I said probably and didn't give a conclusive answer. :pAlright, I'll adjust my response to say "we probably still wouldn't have won it"*wink*

Presumably Gerard will wonder into the manager's office at BH today and find the a dusty copy of the Rothmans Guide to Mediocre British Players; 2008 edition, a calendar with only the 31 of August mysteriously circled and a large map of the UK
The legacy of Martin O'Neill is our football club left completely in the lurch, Managerless with 5 days to go before the season started.
The legacy of MON is fans willing to accept any old shit provided we win.
No, that will be what he's remembered for. His legacy will be what happens from now and how many of the players he brought in are regulars if we were to break 4th.

What happens from now will be down to Houllier, not O'Neill.
