Martin O'Neill is one of British football's true greats. Plucked from Irish club Distillery by Nottingham Forest in 1971, the young Irishman went on an incredible football journey that saw him clash against some of the game's biggest characters. He twice won the European Cup with Forest under the enigmatic Brian Clough--though the two never saw eye-to-eye. A talented midfielder, O'Neill played for Manchester City in between spells at Norwich before ending his playing career at Notts County in 1985. As the first Roman Catholic captain of his country, O'Neill marshaled Northern Ireland's golden generation, who battled through to the quarter-finals of the World Cup in 1982, knocking out hosts Spain on the way. But football was by no means the only path O'Neill could have taken. Opting for football over Gaelic football as a youth, O'Neill was forced to curtail a law degree at Queens University Belfast to make the switch to England, although his interest in criminology had not diminished. He cut his football management teeth at Grantham Town and Shepshed Dynamo, and his stock grew as he took Wycombe Wanderers from the GM Vauxhall Conference to the old Second Division in a matter of years. However it was at Celtic that O'Neill would enjoy his most trophy-laden years, winning an unprecedented treble in his first year before narrowly missing out on UEFA Cup glory a year later. O'Neill would leave Celtic, his "spiritual home," to care for wife Geraldine as she was battling cancer. Returning to football in 2006, O'Neill is charged with taking a hugely talented Aston Villa side into the Premier League's top four.
