Robster Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 I don't want to see any professional footballer injured... it's a stupid thing to celebrate. Yes, it makes us feel smug as we knew it would happen eventually - makes us look a bit pathetic though IMO. Thats all a bit wishy washy to be honest. Its not as if we are celebrating him snapping both legs in half rendering him unable to walk for the rest of his life. The guy has sustained yet another niggly little injury in the circumstances which appear to be similar to those that made NUFC fans cynical of the little shithead in the first place. He deserves nothing less than total contempt from us - balances out for the total contempt that he holds for us. You think he didnt laugh when Blackpool beat us last week ?

Thespence Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 This is almost a shame. It was funny seeing him stay on the bench, game after game after game. Bit like Oba then, who seems to have free pass from Newcastle fans but at least the players at club spotted the fans favorites as frauds when it came to head after Leyton Orient game.

Shame these iron men haven't spotted Butt as a fraud They were dealing with talented players who just gave up playing for the club we support not clapped out players who at least still try. I don't think N.Butt can be knocked for the way he goes about things but his ability & legs have gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted October 1, 2009 Share Posted October 1, 2009 not going to get into a debate about that again. Anyone bringing up the Leyton Orient game as a positive thing needs a slap though. The worst players on the pitch that day are still here by all accounts. Martins had 45 minutes coming back from an injury and won a penalty so the effort couldn't have been that minimal.

TRon Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Souness forced Bellamy out of this club for peanuts and spent £17m on a player who couldn't give a flying fuck about us at the end of the day.

tmonkey Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Souness forced Bellamy out of this club for peanuts and spent £17m on a player who couldn't give a flying f*** about us at the end of the day. What a disaster that business turned out to be when we look back on it now. Also a major mistake - buying this crock of s*** who thought himself too good for us for £17m instead of £8m on a desperate-to-sign-for-us Anelka. Might be a bit of a bitter "told you so", but as time has proven, Anelka has been the much, much better striker on the pitch and far less of a mercenary prick on/off it. No doubt there are some who'll still claim that he'd have been an "accident waiting to happen" if he had signed for us, or "poison in the dressing room", notions based on thin air and tabloid sensationalism, but that's football for you.

KaKa Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 To add insult to injury Anelka is a player who I can't ever remember being injured. Phenomenal athlete in that sense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Didn't Souness want Anelka and Boa Morte or something, but Shepherd wanted Luque and Owen? I'm sure I read that somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Here: Newcastle spent vast sums on transfers during Souness' tenure - including the signing of Michael Owen from Real Madrid - but the Scot refuted the suggestion he was fully backed by then-chairman Shepherd. "I would argue that point because at the end of the day my first choice was (Nicolas) Anelka and (Luis) Boa Morte. "I was told, when I spoke to the people in Turkey, when Anelka was for sale at that time, that he could be bought. But I was told he wasn't for sale and couldn't be bought. "So instead of us spending the £12million there, we bought Albert Luque for £10million and Michael Owen for £16million." Asked whether those were his decisions, Souness said: "No. I was told Albert Luque would cost £2million." http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-507987/Souness-Id-return-Newcastle-heartbeat.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
