Sorry if I upset you or anyone else mate. As far as I'm concerned, Ear Ache was taking the piss & I was standing up for my club. As far as Quinny is concerned of course I love the bloke & am saddened he's gone.

Why does every thread end up with insults being traded? Banter's okay, but most people resort to abuse. As for the OP, I and I'm sure many, many others will be eternally grateful for everything he has done. Thank you Niall!
Thank you,Niall,for all you have done for our club.Good wishes for the future and enjoy your well-earned time at home with your family.
They should rename Sunderland Niall Quinn - Why? Because he sums up people from the area. As an exile in Bristol there are no better people than those from the Sunderland area - his passion for the club and the area says it all to me. He is the best thing that has ever happened to the football club. I wish him all the best for the future but I am very sad to see him leave the club - it is like a very bright light going out. With all the negatives that are in football at the moment - he is a massive positive. I will never forget the time he paid for taxis for the supporters stranded in Bristol - would any other chairman do this - I guess we all know the answer to this. All the best to him - we will never see his like again.
Niall Quinn - He arrived as a footballer, turned into a saviour and leaves as a legend. Thank you Niall, you are a true great.
Know excatly where you coming from. Sir Niall is a Legend 1 of my Hero's a genuine Man but one of my Favourite memories is this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M2NovNBn6Qo
