Guest Roger Kint Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 It's strange how certain posters can't make a point without hurling totally unrelated insults or condescending remarks. Is it because of their excessive intelligence or do they have mental issues? For gods sake get over yourself you childish drama queen, i justifiably said it was idiots who thought that injury wasnt genuine, if you want to launch yet another hissy fit on the back of such stupidity then do it by yourself, I cant be bothered with your daily bleating.

They usually want the first word and the last which would make an interesting case for pschoanalysis. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmonkey Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 Some idiots are being very harsh regarding that injury imo It's a possibility. If I saw an "injury" which looked like a player was hurt initially, but then continued to exaggerate it so that he could come off the field, there's no way of me knowing for sure whether he's faking or not. Hence, it's just a suspicion. Maybe is harsh, but hardly warrants calling someone an idiot. Wasn't there an article a few weeks ago about an ex-player who was referring to players in the dressing room not giving a shit and taking the piss with injuries last year? Can't remember who it was and whether those were his exact words, but it would hardly be suprising if that was the case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember who it was and whether those were his exact words, but it would hardly be suprising if that was the case. Well would you take Alan Shearer's word for it? "He got a very, very nasty knock on his back and he was actually struggling to breathe. They had to put the breathing apparatus on when he got into the dressing room. Thankfully, he went off to hospital and they have now stabilised him and hopefully he will be okay." For the record he missed 2 games due to that, what a coward eh? Oh and as for taking the piss? Only 5 players managed 25 or more league starts last year(fair enough some came on as subs) so any chance you are wrong? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
tmonkey Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 And that completely eliminates the possibility of Lovenkrands exaggerating his knock? For the record, I've stated it's a possibility, nothing more, which does strongly imply that I may be wrong. I'm just voicing an opinion on a suspicion I have, as pessimistic as that may be.

If he was acting hurt that day, he's in the wrong profession. Yeah he even tricked Shearer and several medical staff at both the club and hospital, still am sure tmonkey knows more from his lofty perch in the stand....... It'd be easy for someone to say "I can't breathe properly", put an oxygen mask on and sit on a hospital bed for a few hours in order to "pull a sicky", and even if Shearer suspected something he'd not do anything (in public) but back his player since he'd probably be facing a legal battle if he made any unfounded accusations in the media. It's a possibility, that's all I'm saying. I don't see how you can rule it out without knowing for a fact what the medical staff could ascertain at the time. Maybe someone of them had raised eyebrows whilst Lovenkrands was woffling down the hospital jelly? Who knows? Having mild asthma, I faked an attack once to get out of doing 30 minutes of jogging at school, and there's f*** all any of the medical staff at the school (well, just an incompetent nurse and a few PE teachers) could have done to prove that I wasn't having breathing difficulties. I fully accept that accusing Lovenkrands of exaggerating an injury is both harsh and based on thin air, and also it would be a pretty extreme thing of Lovenkrands to do to weasel out of a game when there are easier options such as pretending a muscle has been pulled. So I agree, I most likely am wrong on this matter. That still doesn't take away my gut feeling at the time that the effects of a knock that you see practically every week in football was far greater than the cause (and I say that whilst appreciating that this might have been an exception/one off/Lovenkrands might be weak/etc). Lovenkrands didn't look interested last year at times for us in my personal opinion, hasn't looked interested this season (although that is apparently due to family issues), and hence when you combine the knock + the "zomg I can't breathe for 5 minutes now" + his possible disinterest + the knowledge that numerous players down the years have faked injuries whilst with us + the reports of Shearer's training regimes being alot stricter + the notion that no other clubs really wanted to look at Lovenkrands (maybe others know something we don't), is it still too unreasonable that there might be 0.05% of a chance that Lovenkrands may have exaggerated a hard knock to the back because he wasn't up for a few touch matches and a few weeks of tougher training?

Apologies if some semblance of common sense breaks out after that but somehow i doubt it In other words, "I can't be bothered to respond so I'll resort to insults". This is a messageboard for opinions and discussion of NUFC related matters. Noone has a monopoly on the truth, everyone will have differing opinions on specific topics. You think Lovenkrands was genuinely injured, I think there's a small possibility that he may have exaggerated whatever injury he picked up, and have explained in depth why I think it's a possibility. If you disagree, then just disagree - if you want to say why you disagree, then all the better. There's little point in being pathetic and calling people names or hurling insults just because one opinion doesn't match yours, and to top it off you don't even have the decency to read a post (and then understand it) before deciding to go off on whatever tangent pleases you.

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted November 12, 2009 Share Posted November 12, 2009 The one 1st team striker poorer than Harewood. Utter nonsense. Agree. He's been barely used, he's played up front once alongside Harewood, our worst striker, and played twice on the left wing and once on the right wing, where he struggles. If he is used as a striker alongside Carroll/Ranger/Ameobi, he would be an excellent player for us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree with this, I don't think he's yet played a total of 90 minutes upfront since rejoining. The very limited time he has played up top he has looked quite lively and purposeful, how anybody can say he is worse than Harewodd is absolute rubbish.

You have spent an awful lot of time thinking this out haven't you? Sure you haven't got a grudge against him? In order, not sure, only as long as it took to type it out, I'm not sure as I may be a bit bitter towards him after he thought himself too good for us at the end of last season, only then to crawl back after it was clear noone in a top flight league was going to touch him with a barge pole. Just like when Michael Owen was saying he was too good for us whilst at Real Madrid, we should have told Lovenkrands to fuck off, rather than giving a 29 year old with his best years long behind him (years which weren't all that great in the first place) a 3 year contract. On top of this, there's the suspicion that he's another in a long line of footballer in the twilight of their careers coming here for an easy last big payday. So on top of telling him to fuck off after his declaration through his agent that we weren't an option for him, we should have doubly told him to fuck off when he was asking for a 3 year contract. 1 year with the option to extend, maximum two, but 3? There's absolutely noone who is going to take him off our hands if he flops, so in all likelihood he's here for the next 3 years whether we like it or not. I dislike him slightly as a footballer based on what I've seen in a B&W shirt. Lightweight, contributes nothing to buildup, has pace but doesn't use it effectively because he's not talented enough to do so, useless in wide areas, useless in the middle. The only thing he's borderline half decent at is getting on the end of chances, chances which we aren't going to create with the current squad. In short, I think he's going to turn out to be a mistake, although naturally I'll be happy if I'm wrong, and I'll certainly agree that he's not been given a chance in this division yet so I am being hasty in any judgement.

TRon Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 I think I was more disappointed in his attitude after the injury rather than doubting he suffered one. He gave an interview where he didn't sound like he fancied getting back on the pitch in a hurry. I accept he might have been shaken by the injury but usually players are counting the days when they can get their boots back on. Incidentally, I don't have any grudge/disregard/personal vendetta against Lovenkrands, I was all for re-signing him this season, I'm sure there are plenty of quotes knocking about.

As tacky as it may have been from Llambias, the letter was a response from the club after his agent had announced that Lovenkrands wanted to play in a top flight league (and declaring an interest in Sunderland).

Your pathetic ramblings are laughable tbh. You bleat about insults while post almost slanderous claims against a bloke..... On the one hand, you claim you didn't read my response to you. Yet on the other hand, you're also saying that I've failed to respond to one of the points you've brought up. How could you know if I haven't responded unless you read it? If you had read the response you clearly feel yourself too good to bother reading, I've given a listen of reasons why I was a tad suspicious about Lovenkrands' injury. It's common sense that unless a similar list of reasons exist for other players, then I've no reason to doubt an injury. I don't see what the relevance of this "discussion" is to only 5 players having played more than 25 games last year (obviously reasons include injuries and player sales). Even so, I had already mentioned Martins' "injury" prior to the Stoke game (which Shearer/Dowie also backed eventually and which had also undergone medical examination by the club's staff). As for slander, saying a football player may possibly have exaggerated an injury whilst also stating that I am in all probability wrong on the matter, is to my limited knowledge not slander or defamation. Whereas calling someone an idiot repeatedly just because they're voicing an opinion on a football forum that differs to yours (an opinion that you can't even be bothered to respond to in a civil manner - maybe because you're unable to?) is pretty pathetic (imo of course).

Guest Roger Kint Posted November 13, 2009 Share Posted November 13, 2009 You're a prize pillock. Of course i didnt read your whole posts, the same way i havent read all of that pile of crap either although i deserve a medal for suffering through the first paragraph of shite. The reason i know you havent answered about other players is because every bloody post from you is more deluded bullshit from an idiots perspective of football. The player's word isnt good enough for you, the manager's(and toon legend no less) word isnt good enough for you and the club's medical staff and local hospital staff arent good enough for you, no you just continue to trawl out pathetic nonesense about this bloke exaggerating injury to cheat our club when he only missed two fucking matches then you mince about wondering why i ask where the over the top hysteria for other players who missed far more for far less is? Seriously we get it you're a total moron, you have a serious problem with the bloke and you seem to live in a bubble where reality has no bearing now please just shut up about this pointless vendetta! Oh and if you really are as stupid as you sound to think the club told him by letter BECAUSE his agent said he would consider Sunderland then you probably should refrain from replying, you have acheived the maximum level of stupidity possible already so you would be pissing in the wind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
