    Looking at a mates Bebo page and a list of bizarre quotes by various players, managers, pundits and commentators (one or two from the man himself) got me thinking, what are the most gas comments you have remembered the man come out with over the years? As we all know, unlike the tameness of the English punditry half the reason Irish people bother watching games is for the three wise men to give their opinions. And with Ronaldo rising in prominence over the past year coupled with Stans run of form for us you are nearly always guaranteed a classic. I doubt there are many countries where an entire pub turns towards the tv after a poor performance to hear what the pundits thought, but we do. I recall the only thing more disappointing than the performance v San Marino was the deflation when it cut to half time and we, eager to hear the rant, then realised TV3 were showing the match :(

    A few from my mates list, my own memory and Wikipedia

    'I don't think he's a thousand percent mentally'

    "They (Liverpool) should put Garcia where he belongs - in the dustbin."

    "We'll all see through Mourinho. We'll find out he's just a Bengal lancer!"

    "Fat and a clown. A fat clown for all to see." regarding Harry Kewell

    "You need dictatorships and poverty to produce great footballers." Odd that the Iraqi team never made the finals given Saddams sons unique style of football management :confused:

    "A decision like that, he must be on acid...(pause)...LSD Bill!!!" on a sub decision of Rafas :D

    After a match ran over time a few months back, and the post match had to be rushed to catch up with the scheduling

    Bill "Eamon, Im afraid we will have to leave it there, the Desperate Housewives are waiting"
    Eamo (grin on face) "Ill be up in a minute ladies" :D

    Legend :) Got any more you recall?

    "If Liverpool win the Champion's League, I'll hand in my resignation."

    If only he was a man of his word :(
