Jack Flash Posted November 2, 2013 Share Posted November 2, 2013 Dat 5yr contract What is it with us and stupid contracts? The contract length isn't the issue, it's the subsequent handling of the player that makes it look stupid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sempuki Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 His programme notes were definitely ghostwritten again. What does he actually do apart from provoke us? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Luque Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/newcastle-transfer-news-joe-kinnear-2670971 Old news? It is as Ferguson didn't play in that game, i think it was the on loan Man Utd player who scored in the game. Ferguson played 83 minutes if it's the 3-1 over Swansea the mirror are on about Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 In fairness to Oliver, this story has been around for months and this is still the first time it's been printed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 When the story first came out, wasn't it about a game that Ferguson didn't even feature in? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groo Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/newcastle-transfer-news-joe-kinnear-2670971 Old news? It is as Ferguson didn't play in that game, i think it was the on loan Man Utd player who scored in the game. except he did play. Not saying its true though, just he did play.

Groo Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 It could be worse though, you could have an owner who changes your colours to red, wears short sleeved team shirts over his shirt and tie and tucks it into his trousers that reaches his armpits, then sacks a successful recruitemt chief and appoints his sons mate who'd been painting the stands and don't have a visa in his place. I'm hoping we can add to their misery today Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 I think the media are just going for it whilst they can. It is certainly being mentioned a lot on the radio today. I had thought that this was just one of those stories that you wanted to be true but wasn't but Steve Howey said it was true on the radio last week and I guess he would have heard directly from one of the ex NUFC lot at Birmingham.

Dave Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 What does this prick actually do other than embarrass the club on a regular basis? Oh wait, that's exactly why he was brought in. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted November 3, 2013 Share Posted November 3, 2013 What does this prick actually do other than embarrass the club on a regular basis? Oh wait, that's exactly why he was brought in. He's an example of Ashley doing things detrimental to the football club when he's upset, like Pardew pointed out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no 'why' he was brought in. Just because Ashley fancied it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Although most likely not written by him, his programme column had quite an interesting piece on FFP on Saturday, stuff I certainly didn't know anyway. It will be a huge step forward for football if it is effectively implemented and policed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that page is just the club trying to prove his worth and he is probably oblivious to the content. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Do we really think that Shepherd or Llambias ever sat down and wrote their own articles either, like? Or that our various managers/captains have? At best they'll sit down with an interviewer for the programme who will cobble answers together into a fluent piece.

In addition to that you can say the same of, with minimal exceptions, every football autobiography and every footballer's newspaper column that has ever been written. But hey, just like X-Factor and Big Brother stories, the public just can't get enough of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Actually, Shepherd dictated what he wanted in his notes. Quite hands on with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 4, 2013 Share Posted November 4, 2013 Actually, Shepherd dictated what he wanted in his notes. Quite hands on with it. Dictating ain't writing like, I've no doubt that they'll occasionally set the tone themselves when something needs saying but the idea of any of them sitting down and typing away is laughable (which is what keeps popping up re: Kinnear after every home match ).
