    I like Pulis, wouldn't be the style I'd want for Celtic but it'd be infinitely preferable to Ronny.

    Pulis is surely a wind up imagine us pumping long ball after long ball to big Carlton :56:

    Reminds me of the same style the old Huns used to employ.

    As disillusioned that I am with Deila's style of play, that's not something I ever want to see from a Celtic team.

    It reminds me of Martin O'Neill.

    Solid defensively, overloads the box with players and gets the ball in early. O'Neill's version was a lot more attractive here (up until his last season) but it was similar.

    Although MON had a good time here his football play might aswell as been rugby. Good at what he does but playing football isn't one of them.

    Absolute *, the play between Larsson, Sutton, Lubo, Petrov etc was excellent. He knew how to mix it up and he was very straight forward at set pieces but in general that's a load of *.

    Last season being an exception, when we had Hartson and Sutton up front. It improved greatly when we got Bellamy.

    I know he hasn't been at the most lucrative clubs so far but everyone has to start somewhere and that doesn't mean he hasn't got the ability, he just hasn't quite had a breakthrough at club level yet. Look at Martin O'Neill even, there was a stage when all he had managed was non league and league 2 sides, he would have been a similar age to Michael O'Neill then too.

    I don't think his football would be *, certainly not as * as what we've been witnessing on a consistent basis this season. Think he has a knack for getting teams to punch well above their weight and that's what we need from a manager in Europe.

    Not true. MON time here will be remembered a success and white rightly. He didn't play good attaching football though saying that would be lying. Everywhere he's went he hasn't been known for good attacking football.

    Only one lying to themselves here is you buddy.

    How the * can you honestly sit here and say that O'Neill's team never played attacking football :56::56::56:

    Go watch his first game against the Huns..you don't score 6 goals by not attacking :56::56:

    Would be magic. Get two 6ft 6 strikers on and just welly the baw up the park to them. Forget trying to pick the lock, just kick the * door doon.

    Evenftwr he left us his teams still don't play good attacking football. Don't think for one minute I'm slating him here as I'm not. He's a very good manager. Probably the best in my life time. A very good manager wherever he's been. But style of football isn't what his teams are best known by. Go on villa forums etc they al agree.

    We need bigger characters in there. Before we had big Mjallby and Lennon, Deila and Collins have been poor, poor replacements.

    A waste of two seasons.

    Right now the Summer being 10 weeks away, with the league at stake it looks like it's squeeky * time for the board. Me personally i think the squad are able to cope with a new manager coming in and the transformation can be quite quick.

    Instead Deila's having "clear the air talks" with the first team. You could honestly not make it up.

    It's so * boring just listening to this stuff now.

    Look at the strikers. Two technically inferior strikers have come in to replace two out on loan. That gives us five strikers, when all he had to do was play Commons up alongside Griffiths from time to time.

    It's this kind of "easy stuff" that's disregarded by the manager we have. That's why i think we need someone the players get on with and the manager can communicate without sounding like a development coach all the time.

    Our side with him scored 90 goals in 00/01, 94 goals in 01/02, 98 goals 02/03, 105 goals in 03/04 and 85 goals in 04/05. Not to mention a 7 major honours which includes a treble, a European final and a win percentage of 75.53%. 213 wins, 29 draws and 40 losses.

    The new NHS 24/7 number is 111, mate. Give them a call.

    I would let a bunch of ebola ridden baboons on heat gang rape me if it meant getting Martin back in. The euros are coming up so the timeline does not work unfortunately for us. Why is there a myth being repeated that Martin's team played negative football? I just dont know where these myths start and how people repeat them I just dont.

    Not interested in 'everywhere he went' at us we were extremely attacking, always had Sutton, Petrov, Hartson, Thommo, Agathe not to mention Henrik * Larsson piling forward and scoring a fuckload of goals.

    If you don't think we were an attacking team under O'Neill I have no idea what the * you think attacking football is.
