FACED with a lightning strike of flash bulbs, Martin O’Neill sat in stationary solitude at the front of the Stadium of Light’s Riverview Suite. In the room where predecessor and fellow A List name Roy Keane was presented as Black Cats boss, the newly-unveiled O’Neill showed little of the animation which will become part of his routine in the Sunderland dug-out.
The assembled hacks chuckled at the display of dark humour from a manager renowned for his charm and O’Neill continued to captivate through the remaining two hours in which he addressed television, radio and print media. O’Neill conceded the evident flaws in Sunderland’s game at present, both a lack of goals and lack of confidence, and realized they needed to be eradicated sooner rather than later.
Neither did O’Neill delude himself into thinking he would receive special favours on the terraces for his boyhood allegiance to Sunderland.
