I wanted England job - O'Neill

7 juni 2006, 10:45

Martin O'Neill has confirmed he wanted to become England manager.

The former Celtic and Leicester manager, from Northern Ireland, has stayed quiet on the issue and it was thought that his personal circumstances may have forced him out of the running. Wife Geraldine is continuing to battle cancer, but O'Neill has declared himself ready to return to football, and would have relished the challenge of managing England.

"It is one of the great jobs in world football," O'Neill, 54, told BBC Radio Five Live. "If Brian Clough, who had the ego the size of 15 houses, had the humility to go for an interview for the England job then the rest of us mortals should be able to subject ourselves to that."
