WHO AM I. QUIZ

[goldandblack]

Try this one.

.......................... the manager – not to be confused with Jack Charlton.

“People seem to think that Charlton and me are exactly the same but I was a forthright, blunt, arrogant b*****d before I ever got involved with him!” ............... points out.

But he is not the belligerent fool that many have made him out to be.

“I am not a wall with a solid brick heart. I do care. I do bother about what other people think,” he said after an opening draw at the 2002 World Cup in the wake of an infamous footballing spat that threatened to tear a nation apart, let alone a team.

At times during his Ireland reign he says he has felt like Maureen O’Hara in the Quiet Man after John Wayne is handed a stick with which to beat her.

“I know how Maureen must have felt. There are plenty of media pundits out there who look for sticks to beat me with.”

He is also a man not comfortable, as he says, ‘‘with the fame game’’ – a pity that, as he has done a lot to make folk stand up and take notice over the years.

His road to management had begun around the time when ............ last laced his football boots in anger. It was an Anglo-Italian Group 6 match for Millwall at Portsmouth in September 1992.

His last match for Ireland had come during the US Cup three months earlier in a 2-0 win against Portugal. He earned 57 caps – not bad for someone without pace.

“Like Bill Shankly used to say, my pace is deceptive. I’m slower than I look,” he joked of his playing days.
