Football talk - Venables goes to Leeds

Ya don’t say :wink:

Fecking hamsters.

BBC story about it

I’m pissed off that McCarthy didn’t take the job and leave the Irish team alone.

Heh. The Leeds fans I know are spitting at the idea of a Lahndahn wide-boy managing their team.

It sucks that I’m in the States at the moment so I can’t send out a dozen “told you so” text messages to all the people I knew who were sure O’Neill was going to take it (not mentioning any names of course, coughTwistycough).

Ruadh, I never said that O’Neill would go, thinking that he would hold on until the Man U job is available next year!

( how you doing anyway? send me an e-mail! )

The OP said summin like…

A little surprised they went for him, surprised he took it.

Venables > Leeds, great coach of kids, world-class tactician, dodgy wheeler-dealer manager. Wish he were still at Spurs. Probably an excellent move for Leeds even if he was second or third choice – O’Neil will wait for Ferguson to vacate at Man U.

Man U, Liverpool, Arsenal…now Leeds as a contender ? – should make for a better competition.

Can’t remember the rest, thanks for the link, Yojimbo

Goodnight nurse.
