Benfica with Souness, Deane, Minto & Pembridge were one of the sides, can’t remember the fourth team?

 

Empoli according to the BBC. Absolutely nee cunt went to it either, just over 5000.

Happy Birthday Al, now grow some balls and start thinking about your home town club rather than the money you make from promoting the PL and writing articles in the Sun. He could so much to encourage change and is just the person the supporters need to get behind to get rid of Ashley and to get us our club back. Unfortunately it doesn't look like he has the balls to upset lots of footballs vested interests and do it.

What's your favourite Shearer goal?

 

 

Classic old-style centreforward play. :coolsmiley: We won't see his like again.

 

Always gets neglected how good his passing and crossing was too. Could have got another 50 if he was on the end of his own crosses

 

Not true. His crossing ability was renowned all over.

Pre season Riverside tournament in 98 or 99

 

Think they branded it as the JD tournament. I was there on the Sunday but not the Saturday. It was absolutely shite. Remember Perez playing in goal and Stephen Glass playing for us. Other than that, nothing.

It's a strange one with Shearer.

Like most if not all of you of a certain age, he was my absolute favourite player growing up (I'm 36) and felt he represented us with pride, passion and performance.

But as I've gotten older, I've found I really rated him as a player, but not so much nowadays, as a pundit or personality. Don't get me wrong, he'll always be a legend etc - I just find that I much more identify with Kevin Keegan and Sir Bobby Robson, in terms of what they stand for, and in terms of their values and principles. Those guys I could listen to all day, watch documentaries about, read their autobiography and be inspired. Probably not the case with Shearer though. Is that weird?
