Shush Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 We will re-sign him on a one year contract come end of summer when we haven't made he the real signings we need up front and nobody in the top flight has offered Ameobi a thing. Will be like a new signing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 One of the worst players I've seen play for us. Good riddance. And I thought you were a decent lad. I'd be a bit more charitable - played through an injury to get us in Europe under Roeder, seems a sound lad, good professional, doesn't use swear words, etc. However when you look back at it, we've been watching the guy for 14 years now and he's had us tearing our hair out for a huge proportion of the time he's been on the pitch. His place in the squad has generally been a waste and prohibitive to us getting new strikers in. Hardly his fault, but delighted to see the back of him. Pretty much this. I remember stories of him having very painful (cortisone?) injections just to get through games and his hips being completely fucked years ago so I don't really go along with the lazy stuff, just not capable of doing much running. Fair enough you could say if he knew he wasn't up for it he should have just jacked it in but how many of us would quit playing for our team and getting paid very well for it? He also seems very religious (and a bit deluded) so I honestly believe he thought he offered us more than he really did. He'll never be a player I will look back on favourably because of his brilliance but I'll always respect him being a local lad who did what he could even if very limited for the team.

The College Dropout Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 One of the few likeable things about NUFC has just left the building. Tbh while we continue to harbour no ambition I would rather we do it with Shola Ameobi than without. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 If he gets a testimonial it should just be a 90-minute penalty shootout. Against Sunderland. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 25, 2014 Share Posted May 25, 2014 It should be a past Newcastle bench warmers XI (Harper, Wayne Quinn, Bassedas, Lua Lua, Perch, Obertan, etc) v a combined UEFA Cup XI from teams such as Lillestrom, Metalist and the like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sempuki Posted May 26, 2014 Share Posted May 26, 2014 The longer no-one (i.e. Hull) picks him up the greater the chance he will be back to save the day on a one year contract. Unless Ashley has this planned all along and does not want to pay Shola his summer wages. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
