O'Neill, Brian Just met Brian down the old railway track in Bilton in Harrogate where he was walking his Spaniel dog. Got talking about football because he was wearing a Southampton top. Some good stories regards his football career including playing in the Southampton team that lost 7-0 to Leeds. Nice man

O'Neill, Brian A friend of Brian's from his early days at Burnley would like to get in touch with him ....his name is Bill Pointon who now lives in North Shields.
Bill (also from Northumberland) and Brian started their playing careers together. If anyone can help I'd be very grateful.

Norman Stevens Brian was an inspiration, I played under his stewardship at Bideford FC, all he wanted to do was try and bring on the youngsters, his enthusiasm was infectious his ability was wow at our level, albeit a little over exuberant at times. Wonderful guy liked by everyone, which maybe became his managerial downfall. He will always be remembered at Bideford FC and he definitely left his mark in the football clubs history.
