Got shivers watching him talking about us, and I'm 45.

Wasn't it great to just see him stood there watching the game? Never felt like this with a new manager. I'm 39.

The man has some kind of captivating aura, hard to put the finger on. He just instills confidence.

I know it's early days but bloody hell I've got such a good feeling about O'Neill.

[Richy Rich]

Fantastic, still can't believe he's our manager.

Bleps 47.

for the first time in god knows how long, even though we were behind, I thought we'd get back in it. Even just before Vaughan scored. Under Bruce I'd have given up long before that.

Great to see him on the touchline, love hearing him speak, really excited for what's to come.

This...massively. Mad listening to a manger that actually seems to know what hes talking about instead of dithering nonsense

Felt a bit like when Keane was manager and we had that spell when we just expected to score a late winner. I think the best managers just inspire people or make great decisions to change games and sometimes make their own luck
