aye, there are a lot of Irish lads who work for our company (travel over on a monday) from all parts of Ireland and all to a man only have good words to say about him as would anyone associated with SAFC fans. One lad I spoke to only last week said he was at some charity dinner in Ireland last year and Quinn had the whole audience eating out of his hand, you could hear a pin drop.

A true gent in an age where manners, politeness and honour seem to be at a minimum.

Thanks Niall, (thanks for the autograph two weeks ago too) you are awesome

I was at the Sunderland Empire the day Niall got his honorary degree from Sunderland University. All these academics were getting up making boring speeches with some reading from notes Nialls gets up makes a speech with no visual aids which was intelligent funny capitavating and went down a storm. One guy next to me say thats the first time I've seen Professor x not fall asleep during a speech at one of these awards cermonies - it was that good.
