[Donegal Hibby]

Brilliant to see him back healthy and in management again.

All the best Mogga ….

Remember him leaving for West Brom from
Hibs when I was about 18 and still some of the best football I’ve seen and due to this gutted he left.

His team would give the McLeish team a good game.

Wish him the best of luck and to good health

[Murphys Touch]

"A lot has changed since my first time here, but the club feels like its back on the rise. The one thing I know won’t have changed is the supporters – and I can’t wait to rekindle my excellent relationship with them.

"I’m ready to relish the challenge again. It’s a new challenge. I know I’ve been here before, but it’s a new challenge, a new time, a new era for me at the football club."

He added: "The first time I was here was a great time and I hope to again assemble a team that plays positive football, providing the fans with great memories of winning football games.

"I hope that now I’ve come back that we can get back to where the supporters, team, club and owners want to be, which is in the Premier League – and that will be our focus.

"There is lots of quality in the squad with a good mix of youth and experience. It’s my job to get the best out of it. I certainly have the same drive and determination to do so.

"We’re going to attack, we’re going to be positive, we’re going to go and play and hopefully get the fans out of their seats and win some games.

"The starting point is a good one, we’re not scrambling to get away from anything. We’ve got a great opportunity and chance to compete towards the top end of the table.

On his return to health, Tony said: “I’ve been given the all-clear from the doctors after scans earlier this week and I’m full of energy, full of vibrancy and ready to go and do what I feel I do best.“


What a ****ing hero

Great to see he is back in football and most importantly he is in the all clear.

It was for sure. Certainly brought my mojo back having become totally disillusioned with the years of mediocrity. The Mowbray/Venus style was a joy to behold.

Only a point outside the playoffs. It would be some story if he got them promoted to the premier league on his return. Will certainly be looking out for them in hoping they do well now .

Have to admit that when I saw '2005', my first thought was "Whit ye oan aboot, 2005"? It just seems so fresh in my mind... but it was indeed 20 years ago. I guess the good times do

Old age messes with your memory :boo hoo:
