As a rangers fan I always had tremendous respect for him, always listened when he done an interview. A class act .
Me too. A gentleman and built one hell of a team.
Aye he’s a gent
Coming from a rangers fan.
As a Celts fan i like the look of van Bronckhorst. He’s a class act in my view.
Respect David, I'll be honest something bout Dick Advocaat scared shit out of me lol
It was a great era for both teams. Good luck to your club on Thursday 😊
As a fairly young celtic fan(1992) for me he is the pinnacle of what a modern celtic manager should be I love him and I will never forget what he did with us love you Martin what a legend.
As a rangers fan, I could listen to Martin talk all-day , he has that aura and class about him.
i see a lot of auld firm love recently. rangers fans liking o'neil, celtic fans liking mccoist etc. refreshing and classy by some of you lads.
Walter Smith and Martin O’Neil in the same class for me
I loved Martin O'Neill as much as I loved Celtic players , I was as sad when we lost O'Neill as I was when Larsson left
Saint Martin. Changed Celtic completely this millennium
Absolutely extraordinary , extraordinary
Bumped into martin while he was at Celtic while me and my mates (all tims) stayed at a hotel in Glasgow. Went down to breakfast all still 3 sheets to the wind and martin was there! Capped off a great weekend. He had a laugh at the state of us but was so nice to sit and chat for a bit. A really class act and built the team of my generation. Always has a special place in my heart. 🍀
Simply put. One of my all time heroes genuine and honest guy, what a team he built by far the greatest era of my lifetime 🍀🍀 I felt for him most after the uefa cup final he deserved that and more!!
Love Neil Lennon God bless him and thanks for the memories 💚
Time flys. Easy to forget martins 70 years old now. Always great to hear from him. Looks tiny sitting next to peter.
I know, he's looking thin.
Class interview, and great to hear stories about the greatest manager of ALL time.
Great interview what a champion cheers from Australia
Absolute hero 🍀
Good to see Martin O'Neill. lovely guy
What a legend.
Beautiful man. Breed from the best 🍀, Brian Clough, champions mentality.
Complete admiration for this man!
Favourites "It was usually your best players" best line ever.
Good to here Martin's voice again could listen to him all day a real genuine guy
Great interview from a great man. Good all round footballer and excellent manager with all the clubs he was at. He's from my home town of Kilrea.
ach never mind
Great interview. Peter Martin is a great with his style and questions
his record is immense. just looked and reminded myself how good martin o'neill was. as both player and manager.
he didn't get any favours starting out in management. worked his way up the hard way. he made two world class careers for himself.
these days retired players get premier league clubs handed to them. gerrard, lampard etc. no surprise they all fail
We were astonishingly brilliant...
brilliant interview Peter well done
Brilliant interview Peter . Could listen to Martin all day . A legend and a gentleman . I was lucky enough to catch him at the Armadillo recently. Fantastic night so funny. Sad though that the 2 things that stay with him is Motherwell ( painful esp Scott McDonald scoring against us in a meaningless game for them!!) & Seville. Seville was an unforgettable adventure for all of us and we have him and the amazing team that he built to thank for it. Great to hear his stories and lovely to hear him speak about Neil Lennon in the correct well respected manner he deserves which elements of our fan base seem to have forgotten reality and are an absolute disgrace. They sound like supporters of the Govan side . Sweat blood and tears for your club and get treated so so disgustingly badly 😢
Good to see life being a bit kinder to him HH and thank you both 🍀💚
Brilliant archive. Some very solid perspective on British football history. Without John Robertson, Forest may well not have had the ultimate success they did enjoy. Personally met Lennon and Cloughie, with Robbo being my first ever hero. A real joy, this great chat. Thanks.
This is a true Celtic legend took us to a Euro final. My favourite manager in my lifetime. I honestly can see Ange making a mark like Martin the two want to win and second best ain’t good enough for them.
Brilliant interview Peter. Thankyou. Fae a Dee in Hong Kong.
As a Norn Iron young lad growing up, this man was a hero. He's pure class in all facets of life.
A True Celtic Legend .. He will always be Part off the Furniture at Celtic parkhead .
*As IRISH CELTIC & ASTON VILLA Fan* I Feel So Grateful & Spoilt Down True The Years & Apreciate What *MARTIN DID FOR* & What He Left In Each Of Those Teams/Countries He Left Each Of Those Places With A TOTALLY DIFFERENT MENTALITY That Still Seen Today💯% Even If Some Only Remember The Ending of Each Of Those Projects.
*_#ThankYouMartin_**_🙏💚💜💙💜💚_*
Would never tire of listening to MON even after forever and a day .... Amazing man
Great interview with a great man
Great interview, lovely rapport. Could have listened to it for hours. HH
Looking forward to it
Brilliant interview peter
Watched O'Neil and lennon as a supporter on northern ireland both very good midfielders
what a man 🍀🍀🍀🍾
Brilliant celtic legend ☘
fantastic man🍀
Great interview with a football legend and what an insight in to the great game.I have to wonder though about your omission of Davie Cooper from the Scottish all time Xl 😊
Massive respect. Massive.
Great interview
My favourite ever Celtic manager
Great interview....loved this. Cute interview Peter, you just let a man like Martin talk with prompts..
I’m a fanatic Celtic fan an this man oozes class give me some the best memories of my life ☘️💚🤍🧡
What a man 🍀
He’s looks very ill in the video I hope he’s ok. You’re a legend at Celtic and always will be 🏴🍀🇮🇪.
Paul i thought the very same mate.
The man is 70 years old lads. God forbid he’s Not well but I think it’s just him getting on 🍀
@@arronblack67 I hope so Arron. 🙏
I actually think he looks really lean and healthy;.
He’s not ill….he took his glasses off.
Instantly
I could listen to him reading the back of a shampo bottle and feel head and shoulders above any team in front of us
He’s spot on about the treatment of Neil Lennon.
There is a certain level of entitlement that grows within a fanbase of Clubs who are successful and that only increases at Clubs who go on extended runs like we had under Lennon,Deila and Rodgers.
This is increases further by the rise of Social Media where self appointed experts roll out their vision and expertise in Management whilst simultaneously destroying the Manager’s who’s being paid to do it by request of the Club.
The vitriol towards Neil Lennon from within the Celtic fanbase in some cases has been ridiculous.
These same Supporters still lament about the guy whom he HAD to replace due to him jumping ship mid Season.
You have basically quoted what I was going to say. They were singing Only One Neil Lennon a few months prior. I get into arguments about it all the time I kept saying to people U all thought he was Mr.Celtic when we were beating Lazio etc...we had a good run until Copenhagen 😭 An unprecedented quadruple treble!!! Worldwide! He came to our rescue in our time of need. Went to hell & back for this club ( death threats etc) Could not believe the way the fans turned. The pressure he was under was so unique and extreme and he has had his battles with depression so I can't imagine how much he must still be hurting. He is always a legend in my eyes and many many more. I hate how fickle fans are and people in general. If someone holds a place in my heart they never leave it. Social media is a very deadly weapon Well said Brown HH See you on the @TheBhoycieBus 🍀🚍🚌🚎💚
What is it about Rangers fans having a deep respect for wee Martin. He was schooled by Clough ..that's a bloody good start. He did get animated along the touchline so his heart was right in it . He inherited a good few ..Larson , Moravcik class acts. He did add some quality filler ..together to give Advocat a run for the money .Pound for pound Agate springs to mind, but Hartson,Lennon, Sutton and Thompson were quality additions. Great run to Seville and in a parallel universe could have put Mourinho on the back foot . A legend for the dark side 😀👍
I love this man
sad that he had to leave celtic due to family issues but what tremendous manager and gentleman gv us fans many great yrs and trophies sad day whn he left celtic
Sharp as a tack and firing it into Peter when he could. Brilliant.
Martin 💚🍀🇮🇪
" The blessed Martin ... " 😇
Yeah could listen to this marvellous man forever and a day Hail Hail MON!!🇮🇪🍀🏴
Great guy. Pity he's run out of road as far as managing is concerned. There's many teams that could do with his experience.
Celtic was his zenit not the beginning as he thought
He's an older man now probably enjoys the free time he's earned it
For the unknowing maybe good to mention the name of the 'Interviewed by..'?
Never get bored of listening to his chat
Good Afternoon from Ardoyne Belfast HH
Crazy thinking Martin is 70 now but you forget he was 48 when he joined celtic and changed the course of things now big Ange doing phenomenal.
As he talks about Lenny I as a celtic supporter regard Lenny as a club legend with everything going south I knew he had to go but I wanted it to be of his own volition not get sacked.
💙💙
All of a sudden I feel very old
Martin is the last manager who allowed us to walk with our head held high in Europe. But Alex Mcleish managed to do well against him with a poor opponents team, which was not only disappointing, but shocking, absolutely shocking....shocking!!!!
I will do everything to bring success to this football club....that's aw we ask for Martin
O'Neill saved us as much as Fergus McCann did but wee Strachan done pretty well in Europe for Celtic
I'll never forget the shocking shocking shocking interview 😂
Neil Lennon took us into the last 16 twice ffs
Brought Celtic back to the big time!the job he done while that other mob still spending stupid money was amazing!!’He’s a club legend and will always always be fondly remembered 🍀🇮🇪
Celtic put around £30m (£47.85m in todays marketplace) into Martins team ,Lawwell subsequently spent the next decade clawing that back with Operation Zero Debt.
An approach that seen first Strachan then Mowbray,Lennon and Deila have budget slashed by comparison.
Only the appointment of Rodgers did Celtic start upping their Budgets again as spending increased by over 54% during his tenure as boss (7.3% 2016 ,33.3% 2017,14.1% 2018)
That’s how much Celtic had to spend to redress the reckless ( and underhand ) approach by Rangers under Murray.
O’Neill had it good ,very good and of course delivered.
It took a very good Porto side to defeat us in a major European Final.
A side so good in fact they won the Big Cup under Jose the year after so we caught them on the up.
I think O’Neills Celtic beats all the Celtic sides that have followed comfortably but that the current one under Postecoglou is perhaps going to be up there provided we invest in further quality this Summer.
That’s interesting when he said. “ john Robertson could strike up a good relationship with the players. But ultimately bring those stories back to me” I wonder how many modern mangers employe those tactics. HH 🍀🍀
He said that he wouldn't bring the stories back
Yeah you've mis heard, the point he was making was that Robertson dealt with stuff without Martin even having to hear about it
Class always wish he had stayed one more season but family always comes first .
"we were all on the march, with Ally's army"! - for sure.
2 Viewpark boys in top 11 wow. Dave MacKay is a must too
what happened to the signature specs?
In his right hand
God bless you Martin o'neil and your beautiful wife 2: Legends HH 💚💚💚☘️☘️🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🙏🙏🙏
What a team he built ! World class team from a world class manager one of the greats ,really wish he stayed on at the time but family does come first. But so so sad at the time and now. All those bullshit rumours at the time saying he was wanting to goto Leeds United 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I wish he did better at Sunderland. Still a nice man.
what type of cam are you using,,,,nothing is in focus jeez boy get it together brilliant interview sound good unlike si ferry stuff but get the cam right
Not Martin's biggest fan as he's a bit eccentric and argumentative for my liking but he's spot on the way some of our 'fans' treat Lenny and the fact he got 19 games at Forest is disgusting
Pfft Lennon wouldn't have got half the shit he has if he had a bit of respect for the fans or the job in the first place.
To this day he's not taken ONE speck of responsibility for the many failures of last season. It was Covid, circumstances outwith my control etc. The reluctance or even inability to self reflect and take ownership is an awful trait for a manager and befitting of someone who has a chronic drinking problem. Am I sympathetic towards that? Obviously but do I think someone who isn't fit for it should've been given the top job at a club like Celtic? Do I fuck.
See the difference with Ange being in. Our captain McGregor was a shadow of himself last year... The team was a shambles, a generation of youth development - torpedoed.
All because Lennon couldn't recognise the damage he was doing.
The day he takes a shred of responsibility he'll gain a bit of respect back.
TBC I mean Lennon not martin
Let's be fair he's completely right... ALWAYS!
Game has passed him by....not telling his players if they are playing until game time is poor preparation.
So true
That said gaffer he did shit the nest in some ways
How did you get 300 views in 42 mins how
It only runs for 32 minutes 😂

A rich man’s Pat Fenlon 😂
jeez boys you have been in the game long enough.......even when winning not our style wee strachan treble winner we hate winning as much as looosing
Lennon’s mate from the burger realm?
He was really freindly when I met him when I worked there,I ruined a Jim White interview with king HENRIK LARSSON too sorry HENRIK and Jim and Celtic fc
I agree with most of what he said, but not about Lennon. How could any pundit back Lennon last year with the joke of a season we had. What were they supposed to write. They have a job to do and Lennon shat the bed last year
Fuck sake pal how easy to be a critic of a man who’s given more than you’d ever comprehend for the club……anyway I imagine your sitting at home flawlessly looking back on your life so you must be doing a great job maybe just have a bit of understanding for those not as fortunate
They resorted to cheating then dying Martin cos they shat it that much from ye mo chara🇮🇪
He looks very frail , i hope he's ok
@@1888.cfc. well he looks 90 and sick
@@1888.cfc. FFS there's 70 year olds in my local been on the drink 50 years look in better health , I hope Iam wrong by way,, are you his son ?
@@1888.cfc. tell him I said hello
@@1888.cfc. thanks love
This won't be an interview Martin will be too busy kissing arse to conduct an interview
Another one who reappears when were on the cusp of glory
Maybe because he's asked?!
so no former celtic successful player or manager should talk about celtic? talk shit jog on troll
How sad a great manager in his time and that's from a fan of the enemy ,to be treated like that ,in comparison to some of the dumplings you have had in charge .
@@duncanroberts3141 I never made any comment about his managerial achievements. How often you seen him at Celtic Park?
To be fair fella I don't blame him 😜
Martin O’Neill was too intelligent to be a footballer.
I’m afraid they’re both guilty of sticking up for their wee pal here . Lennon as player was fantastic , 1st time around as manager he done well , 2nd time around the football was turgid . He shouldn’t have been allowed anywhere near the job . The reason some fans have had things to say about him , is with regards to some of his comments about fans and his failure to accept any bit of the blame for losing the league . It’s wasn’t the fact we lost the league as that can happen , it was the manner in which it happened
