Guest icemanblue Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I'll go along and ask him why he didn't retire earlier. I'll ask him that tonight. Going to a charity thing that he represents, he's going to be there. More than likely i'll turn into a giggling schoolboy in his presence though!

Mr. Snrub Posted September 27, 2007 Share Posted September 27, 2007 I'll go along and ask him why he didn't retire earlier. And he'll say "Because I ended up scoring 260 Premiership goals and I'm Newcastle's and the league's record goalscorer. Who are you?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
