Brain Clough achieved something unbelievable at NF & this wee Man was a crucial part. Must have been like floating on a cloud.

Martin once recalled one of the great moments of his career was when Barcelona gave Forest a guard of honour as they walked out at Nou Camp, in hounour of their incredible first European Cup. Forest knocked them out on the night on the way to their second cup.

Martin O'Neill was a great midfielder himself and won two European cups a league title and two league cup

He's a very intelligent man. Love listening to him. I wonder if he every thinks what his life would have been if he'd ended up as a lawyer, instead of a successful footballer and manager.

I met Martin in Scotland and had a lovely chat with him, a true gent and a clever and articulate man, I’m from Northern Ireland myself and remember Martin playing for my dads team distillery in his early career, scored a legitimate goal for us against France in our famous run in Spain but it was disallowed couldn’t have a wee team like norn iron beating Spain and then France fifa couldn’t have that oh no, does it sound like I’m still bitter, good at least it’s been proven that the football hierarchy are fools just look where tomorrow’s World Cup kicks off, rant over I’m off for a Guinness to soothe my furrowed brow

Martin- I was at that game vs Spain ( 1-1 ) and I thought you played well when you came on. I have all the autographs of the Northern Ireland squad :
Pat Jennings, David Craig, Pat Rice, Sammy Nelson, Alan Hunter, Terry Neill, Dave Clements, Eric Mc Mordie, Sammy McIlroy, Bryan Hamilton, Iam McFaul, Sammy Morgan, ( who you mentioned) and of course George Best. I even remember you playing for Distillery in the Irish League while you were a student at Queens.

Hey Martin, Thanks for the win over Germany. Not one of our players would have made their starting 11, yet you engineered a win.
