Heron Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 haven't you ever heard the saying: being a minority of one doesn't mean I'm necessarily wrong? Was my clumsy attempt at referring to it. I do think the past 13 years (a footballer's lifetime) suggests that you are in the wrong on this one. FFS, a half century of goals in nearly 300 appearances. Nar, that's new to me like...but fair enough. I've not said at any point he is our best striker fwiw, I have merely stated that he has as much right to stake his claim as our centre forward at present as Cisse.

Vinny Green Balls Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 and given how much he just ambles around, he may play to an older age than Stanley Matthews. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted August 28, 2013 Share Posted August 28, 2013 So just 29 more appearances before Shola overtakes Jackie Milburn to enter the top 10 NUFC appearance makers ever. Another 2 seasons averaging his current amount for the last 3 years (30ish games) should see him just about in the top 5. 2 more seasons you say ? fuck that. <a href="http://reactiongifs.com/?p=13496"><img src="http://www.reactiongifs.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/abyss.gif"></a> Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deuce Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 If he must play at all, I've really got no problem with Shola playing against the minnows. He should never see the field in league play, but he seems to play okay against weak* opposition. *League One or below. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Would be interesting to see his goal scoring record purely against non-Premier League teams. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest icemanblue Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 No one is saying he's suddenly great, or deserves a start on Saturday. But, if he hadn't come on, I doubt we would have won. He made a big difference, and scored, so he deserves credit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a big difference, and scored, so he deserves credit. Always the way with Shola. He's an asset in those sort of games. Wouldn't dream of laying into him after that. Would like to know what words were exchanged between him and that pale, bald cunt towards the end. Shola was laughing his tits off then suddenly was irate.

Guest firetotheworks Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 I'm beyond being able to give him any credit whatsoever. Any striker that's a back up, or in this case a starter for a premier league team, should be scoring against lower league opposition. I have every problem with Shola, at every level playing for us. There's absolutely no excuse for him being a Newcastle player anymore, let alone one that's starting, or even back up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettNUFC Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 Big Sam was on same train as me yesterday, wondered why he was going but West Ham journo reckons he was there to watch Shola. Nothing more pleasing than seeing Shola in the flesh, fair play to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 29, 2013 Share Posted August 29, 2013 He is what he is. The fact he's here is reflective of ongoing mismanagement, but he can do a job in these kinds of games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it does. I'm not going to give a Premier League starting, or even back-up striker credit for doing his job against Morecambe, funnily enough.
