An official statement over a non-story, it’s pathetic.

 

The Luke Edwards article is believable at the very least and has potential to be disruptive to our preparations so you can understand why they issue an official rebuttal over it. The Ben Arfa story however has very little credence to it. An official statement on that just makes us look silly.

The chairman wishes to make it clear that Alan Shearer has never said to him that he would knock seven bells out of anyone.

 

Christ, remember that. :lol:

At this rate, the summer rumours are going to be a piece of piss.

 

Newcastle are rumoured to be after players A, B and C.

 

"Newcastle would like to strenuously deny being interested in players B and C" :lol:

I think part of this may well be to discredit the tabloids now, knowing fine well that this summer is going to see a oat load of rumours about each and every player at the club

If it has genuinely upset HBA then the club's decision to release a statement is bang on.

 

Still think the above article alone would suffice but yeah this makes it a bit more understandable.

I think it's about laying down the law to the media. Sport journalism, particularly the brand that the football press in the UK practice, is very reliant on clubs, players and agents for the constant stream of stories that actually sell papers. You bite the hand that feeds, you get cut off. Simple. Man United have practised it for years.

Think it's more the club trying to support our best player and keep him happy. Hope this pissed off Hatem fires up and demolishes West Ham.

 

He'd have to start first. :pardsgrin:

The most significant thing he's said in those quotes is that we're focusing on winning all of our remaining games. That's the kind of attitude I want from all connected with NUFC at the moment. Not the usual "hope for the best/over the line/enough points on the board/see what happens" crap being spouted by the manager.
