The photo is too big to post here, http://www.sporting-heroes.net/files_football/O_NEILL_Mart_19780103_GH_L.jpg O'Neill during his playing days, some photos make one think of Everton's Fellaini's hair. It's certainly interesting that O'Neill played for those Nottingham Forest clubs that won League titles and in Europe under Brian Clough, I've read a few of those books on BC though I don't quite believe O'Neill's managerial style takes a lot after Clough's, maybe some. O'Neill was also in the Northern Ireland National Team that went to the 1982 World Cup which had some success I believe. Today's stories in the papers are saying Sunderland was his boyhood club. His is an interesting story. All that said, believe it got a bit difficult at the end of the 2009-2010 season even before he walked off at the beginning of the 2010/2011 season. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_O%27Neill That's some managerial record.

It's gonna be on the box here in a couple of hours,meaning no dodgy stop-start stream for me. I've seen Sunderland an inordinate amount of times this season (thank you Ji-don Won) and they've never looked less than appalling.

However,like many before me in this thread, I reckon the presence of MON will have us done for. I would love if we could get something from this but I fear away day ineptitude will prevail. A turgid, frustrating 2-0 to Sunderland.

Hope I'm wrong!

I've been a Rovers supporter since the 1950s. I don't care what some of you say on here. Thanks to the current situation and shame on me for saying it, but I hope we lose 6-0 today. ( If the situation with Venks and Kean stays as it is, we're going to be relegated anyway ) This is not Blackburn Rovers as we know it. Everything is rotten at the club. When is a manager not a manager? When he's Steve Kean. Are Venky's just clueless or is there something more sinister afoot? What was that all about on M0tD last night? Good old Venkys and Blackburn Rovers and their community spirit. Who decided that should be shown at this particular time? Sky Sports, the media in general knocking the fans for protesting. What's going on?! Steve Bruce gone, well that's OK. Coyle likely to go, that's fair enough. We want changes and somehow we're all numpties. Unbelievable. Never been so angry about Rovers as right now. Can't believe long term fans sitting on their bums and pretending it'll all turn out all right. Sorry if this is the wrong thread but agh !!!!

I actually think we can win this one. While we're all expecting the big arrival to the SOL, to motivate his players, it could work out that the S'land players are actually confused by what's being asked of them.

Form turnaround doesn't always happen from the off. [as we all know].

Loose: season effectively over

Draw: continue slow terminal death

Win: season completely changes, we'll go on to win next 2 games, and kean unbelievably picks up manager of the month for December.

Key for today is keeping them out for the first 20 minutes! Whilst kean is hopeless, the situation is not quite lost yet! Need a big performance!

Subs: Kilgallon, Dong-won, Meyler, McClean, Elmohamady, Noble, Carson

Subs: Roberts, Goodwillie, Hanley, Blackman, Olsson, Henley, Bunn.

Bench fails to inspire apart from Olsson. Surely Rochina would be ok, he only got some teeth removed!
