I'm sure we have in his days as Sheffield United manager. But as someone says above, last season is the only one that vividly stands out.
I remember an absolutely enthralling game against Notts County in 1991. Both teams went at it toe to toe. We beat them 1-0 with an O'Connell goal. We finished one place outside the play offs and County went up to the top flight via the play offs. Just checked, it was in the April, a really big game in terms of chasing promotion. There were 9801 there.
Genuinely nice fella away from the game, heart-on-sleeve, blood-spitting panto villain on the touchline. Can’t fault his passion and commitment at every club he’s been at.
Leeds at home, a Dagnall brace won it for us. Harewood was unplayable that day, and Warnock was on the football league show that night singing our praises!
The guy is a massive bell drop. He defended Chris Morgan after his elbow and resided over this farce: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Bramall_Lane He's managed Cardiff, Leeds and Sheff Utd and could only add to that by finishing his career at Millwall.
Did the double over 'em that season , we beat them early doors at their place 3-2, I think O'Connell notched the winner in that game aswell, sithi.
Can't stand the man with a passion and hate everything he stands for .Hate watching his teams and wouldn't want him anywhere near our club .And it's not sour grapes after tonight's result.
We’re pretty good against his sides in recent times. Remember a recent win over his Palace team where I think Vaz Te scored in under 10 seconds
