Always does everything to the letter of the procedure, has no charisma but still tries to inspire people with no conviction using something read from a self help book, always wants (or forces themselves) to talk to as many people as possible but rarely have anything interesting to talk about. Hate them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like he's got something and is very earnest and intelligent. Off to see their League Cup game against Barnsley on Wednesday night, looking forward to it.

OCK Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) Sometimes I like to make myself feel miserable as a Newcastle fan by thinking of the players we let go before they got a chance.

It’s not the greatest XI, you could arguably put in Carrick over Beardsley due to recency. Shows we haven’t produced much at all in the academy in over 30 years. You could also put Vuckic or Bigrimana in there but then you could say they did get a chance. Wonder what happened to all those highly rated youngsters in Carr’s time, Oliver Kemen, Zamblera, Aaron Spear etc. The fact not even one of them made it to any decent level shows how poor our youth set up has been.

Not like he ever went onto being a PL-standard player. Same with Orr; the limit very much mid-table Champo. There's very few CBs who I regret us losing tbf, so if you've chucked them in to fill gaps in the team I wouldn't argue. There's probably only Distin I can think of but wasn't that on him rather then us not wanting him? Can't remember. Was a bit of a shame that Bassong was here when he was, but again he never exactly pulled you any trees in his career. Yanga-Mbiwa another one who was just here under the wrong regime maybe? Just looked him up and looks like his career went to pieces, only 33 but been without a club for a couple of seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was an article the other day on the BBC Sport site that had a load of images to represent and portray the 30 years of the Premier League and one of them was this: I'm absolutely, 100% glad that tackles like this are no longer part of the game (as that one in the above video should be) but there's just that small part of me that can almost admire what's happening, which is probably not the phrase I mean, but when it's Eric Cantona coming up against Peter Reid, what is it that we're reasonably expecting to happen? It's almost majestic how Peter Reid leaps like the out of place and out of time salmon he is. It encapsulates the ending of one era and the start of a new one as Cantona glides by (hopefully, I assume). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
