Kanji Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 I reckon if I had a family & was paid that well, and then managed to gamble it all away, I'd definitely be throwing myself off a bridge. Maybe he did but by cruel coincidence he landed on that boat, we'll never know. I LOL'd over this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 http://www.chroniclelive.co.uk/sport/michael-bridges-bobby-robson-offered-7471946?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter Michael Bridges has recalled how Bobby Robson offered him a new deal at Newcastle United – but had to backtrack and withdraw the offer after being sacked by the Magpies back in 2004. In an exclusive interview with the Chronicle, Bridges said: “I remember Bobby calling me to say he wanted to offer me another one-year deal at the end of the season and then a few weeks later he called me to say “I’m sorry son, but I can’t offer you the one-year deal now as I have been sacked. I honestly felt more gutted for Bobby. Robson was sacked four or five games into the following season, was he not? I'm a bit confused and this is slightly picky, but wouldn't "he called me a few weeks later" not be more like 12 or 13 weeks? Not really 'a few'...

Optimistic Nut Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Wiki says out of contract so that's feasible...though why we wouldn't have got him that summer if we wanted him is strange. Bit mad as well that after all the clubs he's had after Sunderland, it's Newcastle Jets where he's made the most appearances. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Was he still contracted to Leeds then? Contract expired at the end of the 03-04 season. Robson was sacked on August 30, four games into 04-05. I'm just utterly confused. So Bridges sat there, as a free agent with a contract on the table weeks into the new season but didn't sign it? EDIT: It has to be utter bollocks. Either Bridges or Ryder hasn't thought it through properly. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Perhaps he's saying Sir Bobby was gonna take him back before he was sacked. I.e he was a free agent without a club and Bobby was going to bring him back for another year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 But he'd been out of contract for a couple of months by then? You'd think if we wanted him, get him in July and in for pre-season, not when the season's in full swing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
midds Posted July 22, 2014 Share Posted July 22, 2014 Wasn't Robson told by Shepherd that the forthcoming season was going to be his last? Not exactly a sacking but he told him it was the end, which obviously set the dominoes in motion which lead to him getting the push a few games into the season. We'll never know tbh.
