Cajun Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 My problem with him is that he gets dirty with shirt tugging and using his elbows and so on which might cost him more suspensions than this one, he's been very lucky to escape many bookings this season. I am curious if you actually watch matches. Seriously. Every CB at every level tugs shirts, uses elbows and plays physically at some point in a match. All the way from Carles Puyol and Gerard Pique to the Sunday League cloggers. Get a grip man. Learn the game and then possibly people might take you seriously. He just does it when its unnecessary. It's not only me who thinks it to be honest, every single match the commentators are saying that he's getting lucky not to be sent off. However, it feels pointless to argue with you since you're god almighty who have taught everyone about the game. And honestly how much do you value people who take you serious on a football forum? You're probably a fat bastard who sits infront of the computer and have nothing in life. Cheers. Oi fuck off I haven't even said anything! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magpie Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20101203/williamson-agrees-long-term-deal_2281670_2236438 Newcastle United have agreed a new five-and-a-half year contract with defender Mike Williamson. The centre-back has been a near ever-present in The Magpies' solid start to their first season back in the top flight, having also been an integral part of the promotion-winning side of last term. He only arrived from Portsmouth in January of this year, but his performances have been such that the club have acted to tie him down on a longer term deal. Williamson, 27, said: "Playing in the Premier League with a club like Newcastle has been a dream for me, and I was delighted to agree a new contract to continue doing that until 2016. "I've played in the lower leagues before, so to get the opportunity to play at St. James' Park every other week - and grounds like The Emirates and Old Trafford - is fantastic for me. "Me and my family have settled here quickly and it's great to know that we'll be staying here for a long time to come." Chris Hughton added: "Mike has been outstanding for us since he came here. He was somebody who I tracked for a while before we got him, and he has perhaps exceeded even the expectations we had of him. "He has a brilliant attitude and in my opinion has been one of the best English centre-backs in the league this season. And I thoroughly believe that his best years are yet to come, so we're thrilled to have agreed the new contract." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Five and a half year deal. why does it matter if he is not a big wage which i would imagine he wont be? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Good news. But 5 1/2 years seems a bit much for a 27 year old. Got to wonder if the timing has something to do with the Taylor situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ObiChrisKenobi Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Entering the supposed 'Prime Years' for a defender, I can see him improving as he starts to believe in himself at Premiership Level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan_Taylor Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 4 would probably have been long enough. Can we sort the manager out now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beren Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Good business on semblance: 1) No chance of leaving on a free at any point in the future 2) Wage (presumably) commensurate with someone who can't think of themselves as demanding an established top-flight CB salary Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minhosa Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Happy with the contract extension. He's been value for money and seems like a good bloke to have in the squad (i.e: very solid, steady player and character to boot - he doesn't look like the type to be whinging to the press and/or causing general disharmony when he gets dropped). Good move. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Good news, he deserves it. He is the type of central defender who could play until his mid thirties I reckon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ElDiablo Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Sure the reported fee was more around £1 million. Which is a total steal tbh. For someone who couldn't get a game for Portsmouth? Wake up. You really are clued out. How can you expect to be taken seriously when you know so little. Unless you are a WUM - in which case, well done. I know loads.

IIRC, Williamson couldn't get a game at Pompey because his fee would have risen had he played - so they couldn't afford to play him ahead of their impending financial struggles.

Guest BlacknWhiteArmy Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 5 years? I think he's steady enough and all that, he's a decent player, seems a bit long a contract however Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 5 and a half years!? Crikey. Good news he is tied down but that's a bit excessive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 Seems a bit long, but glad were tying down players like Mike for the foreseeable. He's been really good so far, wouldn't have looked wrong if we spent £5m on him and with his best yet to come its a comforting move for us to know he's here long term. Sort out Taylor and really CB wise this is the strongest competition we've ever had in the prem imo. Just wish Colo wasn't on such a stupid figure while being in his late 20's.

Guest Stephen927 Posted December 3, 2010 Share Posted December 3, 2010 It's a lengthy contract but I can't see him being on much more than £30,000 a week. There'll no doubt be a good deal of interest in him from his showings so far, makes sense really to protect the interests of the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
