There is only 1 man for the job and that is Martin O Neill.The man is a genius and has had success at every club.He is also out of contract in the summer and is asking celtic board for cash for 6 or 7 new players he knows they will not give him.I think he is getting bored up there and will find it very hard to replace larsson.He has plenty of experience in prem with leicster and even won a cup with them which took some doing.They also never finished outside the top 10 when he was in charge and the season after he left they got relegated.He has also proved over last 2 years he can cut it in europe as he took a highly motivated team of average players to the final of uefa cup along the way beating us.This season they were unlucky in champs lge and then beat barca who were on a long unbeaten run in uefa cup.He has shown throughout his career he can get the very best out of alot of average players which we are stuck with now.I would be very surprised if he turned down the job as it would be ideal for him.He is the best choice by some distance and I believe him coming would mean a return to the glory days when we would have a team we can be proud of.The board need to wake up and get him quick before somebody else does.
Smith to Shankly:My thigh is a bit sore,but I think I could play.
Shankly to Fagan:Tell him,Joe.He has got no chance of playing.
Smith to Fagan:Tell him to sod off.It is not his leg,it's mine.
Shankly to Smith:Oh no son.You are wrong,son.It is not your leg.
It is Liverpool Football Club's leg.
