Michael Maisonette Neville to give him his full name.

Loved him as a player.

I started watching the Villa regularly in '79 aged 13 or 14 when my parents let me go with mates or my (twin) sister. So I got to see him play and loved his attitude.

I love that Galway United top as well. I have a birthday in 2 weeks, so that is going to be top of the wish list. I think a trip to Eamonn Deacy Park is also on the cards once we can start to get out and about. UTV.

Hahaha, classic! Did not see that plot-twist coming! God bless 'im (I mean, he's wrong but...)

What an amadán, spouting absolute bollox! I cannot stand Kenny, I've never actively disliked any Villa or Irish manager but he makes me want to punch him through the TV screen whenever he's being interviewed.

I know but as he's the brother of an ex-pro, who was famously (within Villa/Galway circles) a loyal, incredibly decent chap...I can see why that attitude would rub off on his nearest and dearest.

I don't watch Ireland play so I don't know just how much he isn't getting from the players but you don't really have the players though, do you? Looking at the last match, on paper it doesn't look up to much. Is it just his style?

[Villan For Life]

I nearly stopped watching after a minute or so when I saw the half and half scarves in the background! Glad I carried on watching though.

The lads on The Villa Podcast seem to like him. They’re just happy that the players are passing to each other, which kind of fits what Eamonn’s brother is saying.

That's hillarious! I agree with him to an extent. I don't think Kenny is an international manager. But no manager could make this group of Irish players into world beaters. Liam Brady was right, this is the worst Irish team in living memory.

That's great. I'd guess he was gifted Eamonn's share of the family gab.
