ponsaelius Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Loads of shite spouted about Coloccini on this forum in the past like. Seem to remember even when he was easily our best performer in the Championship there was many who held a vendetta and wanted him sold, despite the umpteen players less capable of the step up in our promotion side. You'd like to think he's universally turned opinion by now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Just because I love him and have for years doesn't mean I can't be objective or criticise. I love Newcastle United first and foremost. In his first season he was OK; great games, decent games and poor games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BooBoo Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Wasn't that thread made the night we got relegated? Had to expect just a tad of hyperbole and nonsense. I honestly thought he'd the first out of the door that summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 When he was good he was very good but too often he looked slow, weak and a liability. Both him and Enrique tought me that with imports, it's never too late for them to come good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 Wasn't that thread made the night we got relegated? Had to expect just a tad of hyperbole and nonsense. To be fair, the lad was getting a dog's abuse as far as 3-5 games into our Championship season. I remember when Zurab was signed someone wanted him in the team instead. And then Malcolm MacDrunkard 'wrote' an article during December '09 stating that we 'had' to sign Matthew f***ing Kilgallon to replace him in the upcoming window.

Ronaldo Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I'm actually amazed at how reasonable and level-headed my post about Colo was, btw. I was incredibly mad during those few days. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NEEJ Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I meant it in that way - not like you're someone looking for handouts around SJP and happen to get info. Ah right i thought you meant like this geezer http://i.telegraph.co.uk/multimedia/archive/02040/newcastle-fan_2040213i.jpg This gimp was in the Chronicle comments thing about Speed. He said he was one of the best members of the Keegan era. Also gave his surname as actually being Toogood. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 There was nothing wrong with the defence that got us relegated. Most people could see that it was the absolutely shocking central midfield that didn't protect it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 Let's not go overboard. There were times that season where Coloccini & S.Taylor struggled big time and made costly mistakes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people could see that it was the absolutely shocking central midfield that didn't protect it. Nicky fucking Butt, man. What an atrocious player. Will always remember that utterly pointless overhead kick clearance, in our own half, under no pressure, against some mediocre opposition, mind.
