The decision which Direction to roll inverted had to be made quickly too!

Actually, Neil initially rolled the wrong way before he figured out what was going on, but then corrected his mistake and figured out that the broken wing must always in towards the ground in both roll in and roll out with a broken lower wing attach point and the need to carry enough G loading to keep it in place.
I do think that Neil's flying in that accident is one of the most impressive pieces of airmanship I can imagine
