Starting his San Lorenzo patter again. Bye.

 

Tbh the Colo I'll remember is the quality one we had for a few seasons following previous relegation. Shame it's ended this way.

:thup: lovely defender to watch when on form

No problem with him getting a new deal at the time. The length of it was wrong and that he remained first choice for much of it was wrong.

 

He signed a new deal last summer.

 

Awful decision.

Shit....forgot about that one, I was thinking about the previous one.

Same old, same old

 

Interviewed by a radio station in his native Argentina last week, Fabricio Coloccini has once again spoken of his desire to rejoin former club San Lorenzo.

 

Echoing previous comments, Colo confirmed that he had a verbal offer from the Buenos Aires club and wouldn't consider joining anyone else but needs to "respect the people of Newcastle" (or at least the ones on Barrack Road still paying him).

 

The 34 year-old defender remains under contract at Gallowgate but hasn't featured since the arrival of Rafa Benitez - officially sidelined with calf trouble.

 

This latest declaration of love for the club he played at in 2001 hasn't been universally reciprocated by their fans though, especially those witnessing his fading powers via Premier League matches on TV:

 

"Stay in Newcastle and eat fish & chips" is probably our favourite response from them so far....

 

Colo's comments came as San Lorenzo faced Lanus in the final of the Argentine Championship. Given that San Lorenzo were thumped 0-4 though, it sounds like he's already signed for them....  :laugh:

Wrecked what should have been a massive legacy at NUFC. Not sad to see him go, which isn't how this should have ended.

 

This. Well said.

 

It's a shame because we all remember how much he used to be loved.  To be fair, the club firing his best friend for having cancer probably played a part in his disillusionment.

Didn't he sign this contract after his best friend was fired? A year and half+ after he was frozen out and kicked out by the manager that tried to sign him to Palace? :lol: great best friend

Exactly. He tried to force his way out of the club long before Jonas had cancer. And then signed a new 2-3 year deal a couple of months after the club refused to offer Jonas a new contract.
