The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

N

Napoleon

That's the way to bow out: in front of the crowd at Deepdale, and thanking the fans for their support over the years.

Throughout his time at North End we have not seen even a single hint of moaning, complaining, or criticism of the club. Rather, sheer professionalism: 100% effort and class on and off the pitch.

Healy, Fuller, Nash and all the rest of the dummy spitters should take a good look at how this guy has conducted himself. The word is Dignity.

Thanks Brian for your efforts. Appreciated.
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

Top man Brian. Always thought he's done great for the club. I really hope he sticks around in some capacity.
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

He was quality for North End on and off the pitch, a sad loss for all North End fans and staff.

Cheers Brian!
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

I believe he has set up a business in preston🙂 not sure doin ehat, best of luck to him and thanks for everything Brian.
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

Yep.. a true pro unlike some I think he has done a sterling job for us.

I admit I gave him some stick last season but I think he was coming to the end by then.

I hope you keeping coming back to watch your team !
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

Top man. Nice way to go out. 120 games in 3 seasons suggests that he was not quite the sick note that some believed either.

Well said Napoleon. May I just add he looked so handsome in what he was dressed in today as well. 😱
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

Hear! Hear! To all that's been said - a very important part of 3 very important seasons in PNE's development. Many thanks Brian and good luck in your future ventures.

He basically said that he thought and hoped this could be our season. But most of it was basically thanking the fans for their support over the last few seasons. He was given a great reception, which he thoroughly deserved.
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

I rated O Neil from whatching hime make his debut at Ipswich away and i got more that my fair share of grief for doing so. He was my favorite player and i am gutted he;s retireing
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

Old school, I would just guess that he will be welcomed back to every club that he played for. It is not what you do, it is the way that you do it.
 
Re: The Brian O'Neil Appreciation Thread

A true champion... i feel we will miss his presence at some point during this season but i also agree with his thinkin that it could well be our time.... most underated player the world of football has ever seen!

I wouldn't bet on that. Aberdeen voted him their worst ever signing in a 4-4-2 article a year or so ago, calling him a "Billy Big Boots" or something. Also Derby didn't seem too keen on him.
I thought he was a superb player for us, especially under the poison dwarf. His experience, grafy and craft will be missed from the midfield.

Brian O'neil, Brian O'niel, Brian O'niel, Brian O'niel= Legend!!!!!
