Niall Quinn Appreciation Thread

[Archie Blagger]

I suppose I can say Quinny is up there with the legends of SAFC, and I dont feel Im over reacting, that Im feeling a bit too emotional or that it is a view biased to myself. He was a tremendous footballer and an even greater gentleman.

You will never be forgotten on Wearside.

Thanks for everything!

LEGEND.

Can't say anything more than that.

[SuperKev]

Thanks for the goals
Thanks for the legacy
Thanks for the memories

You have done so much for Sunderland and not just the club.

Do not underestimate the effect that you have had on our lives.

Enjoy whatever you chose to do because if there is one bloke who deserves sucess it is you.

Thank you

[GeeGee]

The impact you have had on SAFC and Sunderland supporters everywhere is like you IMMENSE! You are undoubtedly a Sunderland legend.

With heartfelt thanks for all the fantastic memories you've left us with.

In the days of cash value added, of EBIT of everything being measured in monetary values we at SAFC have had the best return on investment ever. Not measured in goals per game,or the other index measures, or assists but in just pure class. To say the right thing at the right time. Or say nowt. Just play.

The day Niall walked into our club was a landmark for us all. He epitomises the spirit of us as supporters , he knows exactly what we want in our club.

We often say that SAFC is our club. Not the investors, the directors or the players but the supporters. We have directors, investors and players who are also supporters and who have the best interests of the club and community at heart. Niall is at the top of that list.

May you live as long as you want and never want as long as you live.

Quite simply the most beloved player to pull on the red n white in my memory of watching the lads.

Thank you for showing us loyaty, devotion and some bloody fantastic goals and may your retirement be a happy one.

A legend and a gentleman.

i hope he uses his immense diplomatic talents to improve the game.
it would be a crying shame for football to lose him completely.

thanks for the memories Niall, you'l always be remembered for your amazing contribution to a glory period for Sunderland

Niall...a true legend.

Can we organise for him to come on the pitch at half time in every match.

It certainly stopped so many going for their pies!!

And two goals in the second half.

Good Luck, get a tipping line up and running for SAFC season ticket holders.

Cheers Niall

You're a true Sunderland legend.
