themanupstairs Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 Lee Clark get our other? Was 3-1 i'm sure... Not sure if it was Clarke, but yes you're probably right. And yes it did finish 3-1. Bazza had apparently bet on himself to score? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldtype Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 had a dream last night that we were 2-0 down at Bolton and Beardsley came out of the stands in the 80th minute to score a hattrick. Random. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest firetotheworks Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Remember that time against Wimbledon at home (I think) when he almost scored a spectacular goal but thought 'fuck it, I'll hit the bar and then score an even more spectacular overhead kick' Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cp40 Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Shearer's finishing + Ginola's touch and guile + Cole's movement + Lee's workrate + Gascoigne's passing + Ferdinand's bravery + Keegan's passion+ Qusimodos Looks= Peter Beardsley FYP Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EthiGeordie Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 Beardsley today in his prime would be worth £30m at least. He was one of the most skilful players I've ever seen full-stop and without doubt the best footballer I've seen playing for Newcastle United. Genuinley two-footed, amazing dribbling skills, unreal imagination and cheek, worked his socks of, very unselfish yet very productive himself, amazing stamina levels despite lacking natural athleticism (down to his sheer enthiusiasm for the game) and someone who could play anywhere in midfield or up front without looking out of place. A really nice man as well. To think our area produce such a talent... So true I wish he involves in some capacity in the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Just been watching highlights of him. When he did that shuffle it seriously looks like he doesn't know what he's doing, but he obviously does. I remember trying to do it for ages, but its really hard to try and look like you're fumbling about with the ball, without actually fumbling it and losing control.

merlin Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Def a Newcastle United Legend ; so many amazing goals apart from his other great qualities and hard work. Incredible to think that Mark Hateley kept him out of the England side in Mexico 86 until desperation forced Robson to play him alongside Lineker against the Poles.. Too many great goals to list but 2 stand out for me - his outrageous sliding tackle to win possession from a Man C defender in our final game of the promotion season of 83/84 and then he stood up and cheekily chipped Joe Corrigan from the edge of the box to out a great seal on a 3-1 win..always remember KK running back to the Centre circle, shaking his head in amazement..!! No 2 was a terrific run from almost the halfway line near the East Stand, beating 3 defenders and leaving the really quick Des Walker stranded for pace to score against Brian Clough's Forest at SJP in December 86...I knew after that he wouldn't be staying at SJP much longer, and he was sold to Liverpool the following August. He had an amazing second spell at the club too, when many thought he was almost past it - a really excellent player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may be mistaken, but i think the defender he slid to take the ball off, was Mike Gatting ( cricketer), brother. Used to stand directly over the wall at the top of the players tunnel in them days. I think he went to Liverpool, cos Willie Mcfaul,or more likely Stan Seymour, wouldnt match the money , Liverpool were paying players at the time.

nobby_solano Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 correct me if i'm wrong cos i was just a young 'un at the time but i'm sure beardsley left us in the first place for the same sort of reasons as shay has just done, sick of mediocrity and lack of investment in the team, wanting the team to do well and challenge but nowt being done about it. mind that said liverpool at the time were a great side Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
