midds Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 As a signing it's barely worthy of venturing an opinion tbh. He's been signed as a last resort if they lose 2 keepers between now and May and almost certainly won't even play for them. The only positive of him signing is it highlights the absolute retards (a) that follow both teams and (b) can sort of use the internet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawK Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Agent Harper, you have been activated. You must ensure the Sad Mackem Bastards go down. Mission 1. Crock Defoe in training, good luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
triggs Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 No brainer for him. Gets to live in the area he's lived his whole life, probably won't even have to play a game and a pathway into coaching Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karjala Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Didn't he get a chance to leave us for a starting spot elsewhere when it was him and Given, but he preferred to sit on the bench for us and get paid well for doing jack. Remember him being a bit of a bell-end at the McEwans Centre college parties in the late-90s/early 2000s too. Watch the daft cunt have the match of his life (he's due at least one) against us to send us down, saving 5 more shots from Misstrovic. This board will still love them both.

WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 Who gives a fuck, man? 40 years old and he's still picking up a decent salary. Fair play to him and more fool the mackems for offering him the gig. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

newsted Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Not bothered about this one bit and can't understand why you all are. He's just doing his job. He's always seemed quite measured and sensible and he's doing the right thing imo. Calm the fuck down. Jeebus. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 The Harper hate has reminded me of the run in he had with sned on a plane Sat over aisle from Steve Harper on flight to Faro on Monday. He spilt fizzy water all over himself which allowed me to comment on his dodgy handling and offer him a tissue. He has little sense of humour and came across as quite aloof. Probably shouldn't fly Jet2 if you're not prepared to engage with the riffraff then. Harper's well known for taking himself waaay too seriously. The elbow drop notwithstanding. As he opened the bottle of carbonated water which sprayed all over him and the seat back in front I gave him a tissue and jokingly commented, "I'll say nothing about your handling". He snapped back, "It had nothing to do with that!" Laugh a minute. That's fairly similar to a story I once heard about him at the golf club. Bloke needs to sort his attitude out or his Mrs will be off cheating again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsted Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 So he's actually a bit of a shit, then? Fuck me, he always seemed sound. I must be a poor judge of character. I'll re-evaluate my position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueStar Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 With all the things you could be upset about supporting Newcastle United, I'm amazed anyone has the energy to be even the slightest bit bothered about this This little chap gets to cheer him on too http://i.imgur.com/fG3eHzv.png Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 Have no issue with Harper, he's free to do as he pleases. If ISIS FC played in the north east he would play for them given the proximity. I wouldn't want to miss a pen for them mind and what kit would they wear? Probably green camouflage home shirts and black with white trim for away.

St1pe Posted January 23, 2016 Share Posted January 23, 2016 What I don't understand is that if his desire is to move into coaching why wasn't the club he's supported and played for his entire career offered him something? I know you can't do it for every ex player but for someone like Harper I think he deserved it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
