Goog show this afternoon with Packie Bonnar, Quinner and a few others. Mick Byrne got very emotional talking about the respect he has for Quinn, told us that Quinn was looking after the Irish down and outs that were in London in the late 80s, great bloke, did Roy Keane once refer to him as Mother Theresa? I had never heard about this before but it only adds to my respect for him. He also said he was a virgin till he was 21 because of the mullet, only joshing surely but he's done fairly well for himself in that respect also, some bird that Gillian, someone throw up a recent photo!

Did Quinn say who he lost his virginity to?

Does Quinn ever shut up. He was meant to be co-commentator on that Newcastle v Man City match yesterday and he never stopped jabbering from start to finish.

I have to say I like Quinn as he comes across as a very genuine person willing to accept any opinion and hold no grudge. Didn't hear the show but had I know Quinn was on would probably have tuned in for a while.

He was happy to play the "Mr Sunderland" card for a few years until he was sacked there. Then goes back to becoming a cheerleader for city...

As a former City and Sunderland player, I'm sure he has an affinity to both clubs.

He wasn't sacked, he stepped down.
