[QUOTE=ā€œEbeneezer Goode, post: 1131665, member: 1785ā€]Dr Jo couldnā€™t win anything with Larsson in it. Rangers won the double that year.

Celtic didnā€™t get through to CL, actually drew with St Pats before being beaten by Zagreb and then beaten by Zurich in UEFA cup. This was after taking over a league and league cup winning team under Wim Jansen.

Iā€™m not disputing the fact that Barnes was shit, I just disputed the statement he was shit from day one.

Dr Jo was shit too but he gave us Moravcik and beat Rangers 5.1 so there was still highlights to his year.[/QUOTE]
Dr Jo started the long walk back to success though I think.

Regi was a Dr Jo signing, he was a make weight in the Di Canio deal after Tommy Burns was sacked.

289

Celtic had a higher average goals scored per game ratio under Barnes in 1999/2000 than under Oā€™Neill in 2000/01.

Nice thought but no. If Wim the Tim had of stayed on, I believe something amazing would have happened.

M Oā€™N signed Agathe, Joos, Lennon, Sutton, Thompson, Douglas so it was them with Lambert, Larsson, Lubo that became successful.

Oā€™Neill should have won 5 in a row.

291

My judgement may have been clouded with the euphoria of Barnes leaving. Barnes giving the DUFF effect to the others.

292

Celtic would have won at least another 5 titles in the past 20 years if Scottish referees were impartial.

293

The fact Rangers were cheating financially would have robbed them of more than the refereeing surely.

294

I thought Barnes spoke very well.

295

Do any of you ever speak well? Have you ever overheard anyone say that they thought you spoke well to another person? Must be unreal to have someone say they thought you spoke well.

I think John Barnes spoke well last night. Seamus Hickey always speaks well.

Must be great to speak well.

296

He was a Wim Jansen signing was he not? Well a Jock Brown signing while Wim was in charge.

I speak very well. A friend of mine foolishly told me that he overheard his mother say I had a sexy voice on the telephone* before. I got great mileage out of that.

*Ringing the house looking for him, not sex pesting his mother.

I was once asked by an Aussie what language was I speaking

300

That was rich coming from one of themā€¦ flaming galah.

301

Correct. For some reason I had it in my mind that Dr Jo took over from Tommy?

302

Daithi is box office. The championship is near

303

According to Eoin Kelly it will be Galway 3-14, Dublin 2-21 as they both score the same amount consistently.

I admired the way Brian Hanley stood up for Galway whilst that cunt from Tipp belittled us.

Richie Hogan has lambasted the hurling championship structure on this tonight. Excellent stuff.

They werenā€™t actually looking at Weir. It was a Rangers fan who phoned that into a show, saying he wished Celtic would sign Weir.

Cody will drop the mouthy cunt soon.
