Ronaldo Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 David Kelly. I cried when I found out we'd sold Kelly. Soft bastard. Though I must admit, I filled up when I heard Killer had gone to Swindon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mimifrench Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Can you tell me please who apart from Shearer wore the number 9 for Newcastle ? It represents something special for the nufc fans, isn't it ? (I mean the number) Bizarrely enough this was the top result when I Googled it: http://www.newcastle-online.org/nufchistory/number9stats.shtml Since Shearer there's just been Martins and Carroll. Carroll had the honour of wearing the Newcastle number 9 shirt and he decided to go to Liverpool ? What an idiot he is (or probably is) ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Revolution Number 9 Posted June 19, 2011 Share Posted June 19, 2011 Yep. Especially considering he was a local lad, so he knew what it meant as much as anyone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

alexthegreat Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Can you tell me please who apart from Shearer wore the number 9 for Newcastle ? It represents something special for the nufc fans, isn't it ? (I mean the number) Jackie Milburn Andy Cole Les Ferdinand Alan Shearer Obafemi Martins Andy Carroll edit: sheesh, forgot about Supermac! Albert Shepherd: Shepherd was known for having a ferocious shot which on some occasions even carried the goalkeeper over the line as well as the ball. He was also noted for being a very charismatic and playful character. At half time in an away match at Notts County with the score at 0-0 he asked the Newcastle officials if he could leave the field of play early so as to catch a train to Bolton to visit his family. Newcastles' then Chairman Joe Bell, himself a popular and jovial character, told Shepherd that if he scored four goals he could leave as soon as he liked. Shepherd duly scored four goals in the second half and according to the sports writer Arthur Appleton, "developed a sudden limp" and asked the referee if he could leave the field of play. Shepherd was allowed to leave and soon after caught his train to Bolton on time. (Arthur Appleton "The Hotbed of Soccer") Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I think on a goals per game basis it was Cole - who was never that loved But the rest of them on that list were all great strikers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
