    Definitely not on the wind up mate. Obviously he is no miracle worker and he isnt going to get them into the Champions League but I have no doubt that he is going to turn them into a much better team than they currently are. As a NUFC fan, it's a bit annoying. From my time living in the midlands (from 96 onwards) I saw how prior to his arrival, Birmingham City turned Villa over every game (some even with Bruce in charge). Villa never looked back after he arrived (apologies to brummie if thats an over generalisation). I admit I am bothered that he may turn SAFC around similarly. Whilst today's performance, from what I hear, was poor, I just think its inidicative of his overall influence at the club, that things are starting to go their way, instead of against them, all of a sudden. I think he is just one of those managers to whom positive things happen. Personally, I think he's an excellent appointment for them, and I am not surprised in the least that their fans are doing cartwheels.
  2. What the hell has happened to this game in the last 10 minutes !!
  3. I'm not watching, but I'm guessing that this needs a bump.

    The opposition is irrelevant though, in my opinion. Steve Bruce's Sunderland would have lost. I think that under O'Neill, they'll find ways, by luck or design, of finding draws/wins when otherwise they'd lose.

    The Christmas period. Maybe a bit premature, but for as long as I can remember, being an NUFC fan around Christmas time has been utter wank.

    I get the impression that a lot of us are in denial about this. This victory is a good example of what it is going to be like for them under O'Neill. Things are just going to go their way and they are going to get better. Be prepared to see a lot of him jumping up and down on the sidelines.
  7. Amateurs. Kenny Wharton could show them a thing a two about taking the piss.
  8. Looking forward to seeing the Wham lad getting sent off for clattering the lad who was showboating.
  9. Nice to see footballers being seperated even further from the fans.

    They'll beat Blackburn.
  11. Does Fergy time apply in European competition ?
  12. You'd have to be a right bellend to find that funny in the first place, never mind during a minute's applause to remember the passing of a player. What a terrible way for them to try and justify it.
  13. Darren Ferguson. Like father, like son. A cunt. His team loses 3-4 at home to Barnsley, and it's because Barnsley had all the luck.
