The point is Percy, neither were very good managers, not because they weren't capable individuals but because both had huge egos and surrounded themselves with idiots.

Under Houllier we played more football at home in not even one season than we did in two full seasons with O'Neill.

For all Houllier's faults, I thought we were on,y seeing the start of his methods being put into place.

Under O'Neill we saw the same thing over over again, as it was the only thing he knew how to do. If he'd stayed another ten seasons, we'd have played the same artless, tedious guff at home the whole decade.

A slightly more palatable version of his Leicester City except at a bank breaking cost which has left us skint. Far too often at home he had that expensive team looking like less than the sum of its parts.

Ah yes, how triumphantly brilliant he was in the more directorial role being suggested on here.

One less point from the home games compared to your Martin's bestest ever season, despite an injury crisis, a player revolt and no pre-season to work with the lads suggests they were both crap, just one slightly more than the other.

Bring back Brian.

Both were crap, indeed.  And yes, bring back Sir Brian.  He's only crap because his heart isn't in it anywhere else.  Come back and both he and us would be brilliant again.
