Stu Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Just been on Osborne Road having some quiet drinks in Spy with friends, who should appear in the George Hotel restaurant...? Our number 9, Obafemi Martins...with some greasy Mediterranean type (not Enrique!). Our intrepid reporter forewent his self-respect and approached the 'famous' number 9 for his take on the game... James: Can I have your autograph? Oba: No problem James: How many goals are you going to score this season Oba: <laughs> James: At least 40? Oba: I won't score as many as Michael James: Howay then, 30?! Oba: <laughs> James: Who has Keegan got in the pipeline? Oba: <looks dismayed> *silence* James: Well what's the Argentinean like? Oba: He's good but Guthrie, the Liverpool one, is really good James: Thanks, have a good season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedro111 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Did the source ask him if he was actually 21 or 28?........... and if he is good or is he shit?.......... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Tomorrows papers Martins last sly DIG at Owen before heading off to Gunners! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Heneage Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 For those who laughed I were being serious. My mate who I've quoted on here, well one of his mates who I became friends with, is good friends with Martins and was with Babyaro. So it may have been him upon hearing description it wasn't hes the opposite of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Tomorrows papers Martins last sly DIG at Owen before heading off to Gunners! no, you misread, he wasn't doing the gardening at the George Hotel, he was enjoying a meal in their outdoors restaurant area. Sorry for the confusion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Did the source ask him if he was actually 21 or 28?........... and if he is good or is he shit?.......... Nope, but Martins did ask if the interviewer was 12 or 22. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 That's weird that he doesn't think he can score more than Owen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stozo Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 That's weird that he doesn't think he can score more than Owen. Thought Allardyce was a crap manager but I do agree with him that Oba is a "scorer of great goals not a great goalscorer". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, but Martins did ask if the interviewer was 12 or 22. the interview is 23, a legal professional within Newcastle. He pulled no punches! Hard hitting stuff indeed. Apparently, the main feedback was that Guthrie is a lot better than 'expected' in training Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 So even the players expected Guthrie to be shit? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
