Guest firetotheworks Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Not that I don't love Shearer, but in Carroll's position, I do doubt he would have stayed. The initial reason he came to us, along with being his home-town club, is that we were an outstanding team that was looking to win the title. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

quayside Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Respect means that you turn a blind eye to his 'punditry'? Oh dear. And yeah, I think I was being a little too kind describing him as 'unproven'. Judging a pundit will always be subjective. So defensive. Love it. Me too.

tommo Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 This man is a true legend. Someone who knew what it meant to wear the #9 for the club he loves. Could have played for any club in the world but always stayed with us. Compare him to Carroll the c*** who jumped ship at the first opppurtunity to a completely mediocre Liverpool team just for a few extra notes. You'll never be fit to lace wor Al's boots you judas prick. Shearer. absolutely spot on. any comparisons between shearer and carroll now seem unbelievable. pride of wearing the #9 meant so much more to him than any money in the world. geordie legend.

He was a fantastic footballer, probably the centre forward I've seen at this football club. I loved him to pieces as a player and idolise him in that respect. I was just responding to the comment that somebody made about him as "unproven coach/manager". But nope, daring to criticise a legend on this forum and go against the "norm", automatically makes you a "joke poster". I know the score, don't worry.

Guest Thump 1892 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Anybody who says he "failed as a manager" - he had, what, 8 games to turn the team around? That really isn't long enough for him to make a serious impact on the squad that had already given up. His job was basically to inject life into a corpse - and he couldn't do it. Outside of maybe SBR or The Special One - who the hell could? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dazzanufc1892 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 to be honest, hes a legend, but he severely soured himself when he kicked up a fuss because bob wanted to sell him to liverpool, eventually got him sacked when he was dropped, then supported souness as manager before limping on for 2 years to break a goal record.
