Watching Quinny's Fiftieth...

[---Nemo---]

So many great goals, deft flicks, tucks into corners, bullet headers, lobs and his chest control was phenomenal. It's rare we get to see a players golden years but we certainly saw the best of Niall. What a player. Watching it I couldn't help but feel sad about how far we have fallen, I wonder how long it will be before we see someone of his quality in our shirt again?

 

[Stormo]

Great player. Loved those chest downs and then lob.

His goal v Reading was immense.

 

[JL1985]

Diagonal cross onto his chest and volleyed home.

Port Vale at home was class.

Diagonal cross onto his chest and volleyed home.

The number of times he finds the space to slot home via deft chest control is astonishing.

Spurs at home. Unbelievable goal.

 

[woodlebert]

Watch and weep.

Was that the chest down and volley?

 

[Brexit]

Probably the greatest footballer and person that has ever lived.

 

[woodlebert]

Was that the chest down and volley?

Yes, in the video above.

 

[---Nemo---]

Yes, in the video above.

Loads more and better quality on SAFC site. Celebrating his fiftieth birthday.

Watch and weep.

As if I'm not feeling bad enough you have to rub it in

Love Quinny, great guy to have round the place, we will bounce back just may take a bit of time

i seem to remember saying to me old man one match think it was bradford at home, is quinny on drugs as he looks f***ing mint, he went from being a bit crap into a great player for us

He was shite at the start. Especially them few months in the championship to begin with. Little did we realise he was playing on 1 leg. Couple months out for an operation and then God was born like a totally new man. We will get back 1 day but footballs bubble needs to burst first(hopefully) looking back now them 2 7ths should of harboured decent investments and who knows what might have been

When we first signed him it wasn't a popular decision if I remember rightly. If it had been in the days of the Internet this place would have been canny funny. But not as funny as the bumpage material there would have been

No, thats Billy Hughes.

Unlikely we ever will and that is ignoring our current levels of shitness. Even if we get back up we won’t see a player like him again.

 

[Maravilla]

Bullied some top-class centre backs during the early years at the SoL

Hope springs eternal Pip.

 

[Venkman]

Absolutely love the bloke. Might talk a bit blarney but without doubt a bona fide Sunderland legend and a magnificent player for us.

Didn't get the credit he deserves outside of Sunlun.
