Ok Owzat,your right,as always.O`Neill is quite obviously sh.it,Im amazed I havent seen it before.But your stats have opened my eyes.I will have to ignore the fact that he is the most sought after manager in Britain(apart from Wenger and Ferguson obviously),the fact that he has done a fantastic job at every club he`s managed,the fact that he turned Leicester into a secure cup winning premiership club(just look at the shambles they are in now without him)the fact that he has turned the SPL into a one horse race,the fact that he has turned Celtic into a feared European club despite the handicap of having no true competition in Scotland(getting Celtic to a UEFA cup final was a massive achievment),the fact that he has done it all on a tenth of Liverpools budget(and they still humiliated us in Europe),the fact that he has the rare ability to make players better,to play above themselves,and the fact that every one he has worked with has spoken of him in glowing terms.No i`ll ignore all this and just look at your stats.
You know,I read a statistic once that proved Pele was a sh.it player.Just goes to prove the old saying "There are lies, damned lies, and statistics"
