AyeDubbleYoo Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Read in the Keegan book that he called Man Utd to ask about Gillespie and that was when Fergie suggested selling Cole as part of the deal. Big move to go for that like, Keegan's confidence was mad. Guess he also knew he would be backed to sign a replacement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 Really pisses me off how little Cole acknowledges his time with us and what the likes of Keegan and Beardsley did for him. He's said in the past that he loved his football up here but didn't feel comfortable with the adulation and was homesick etc. To be fair, he hardly talks about his career full stop. Even the documentary he talked more about his family, past and his attitude etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interpolic Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I can't believe that Cole only scored one international goal. Even with competition from Shearer, Sheringham, Fowler, Owen etc, he shouldve had more. IIRC Keegan gave him a run of starts and he went 9 or 10 games without scoring.

Big move to go for that like, Keegan's confidence was mad. Guess he also knew he would be backed to sign a replacement. If you watch that documentary it seemed like it was inevitable and Keegan was simply maximising the amount of money we could get. The 2 had fallen out. Cole said later on that Ferguson was the only manager that understood him, understanding him meaning he was quiet and stroppy but fundamentally wanted to score goals.

Ah interesting, there's nothing in the book about a falling out. I did find it bizarre that Keegan agreed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you here Tooj tbh, he hasn't really said much positive about us considering how we launched his career. We were still his peak imo. No one was as good for him as Beardsley was, Yorke was nothing compared to Pedro. i seem to remember saying that Cole had Beardsley and Cole as the two best players he had alongside him. Linekar has Beardsley as the best player he played alongside as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, the atmosphere at our Primary School when Keegan resigned in '97 was so bleak that anyone unfamiliar with football would've assumed there'd been a multiple child fatalities as a result of a shooting rampage.

Guest firetotheworks Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I think I'd go as far as saying that us selling Cole was my first experience of heartbreak. Everyone was devastated. Ginola was as bad because I was the only one that was gutted, so it wasn't a shared thing like Cole was. Even our teachers were gutted when Cole went.

I say this all the time but there was a geet funny joke going around which was "Newcastle are selling Cole" and the shite punchline was "Aye, ten pound a bag". Katie bloody Hedquist said to me that afternoon when we left school "Newcastle have sold Cole" and I was all like "Aye, ten pound a bag and you said it wrong". I was really devastated like, he was a real hero of mine when I was a kid. Still think Carroll leaving was worse though, was looking like a real world beater and could have been a Geordie number 9 for 10-15 years. That transfer showed you that football is just shite and means nowt really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I often wish I'd realised then how cruel football could be and just decided not to bother following it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
