Is O'Neil a realistic option?

Seems to be Martin O'Neil fever on here today, it's a nice thought him being our next manager but will there be a feeling of anti climax if somebody like Terry Burton gets the job? O'Neil would command a large salary and some sort of budget gaurantee to bring in some tidy players, Terry Burton or some young hungry manager would be a much cheaper alternative and TG and VT have stated that they wish to run the club on a sound financial footing.

A lot of us would believe Christmas had come early if MO'N was appointed our new manager but is it really realistic to expect this? this time next week we'll all know the answer that's for sure.
