Coastie Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 If NUFC don't make a minimum of 15mill profit on GK then I will submit myself to the attention of enthusiastic prostitutes until death, I am that hesitant about his qualities...

Chris_R Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 2 hours ago, HTT II said: Shearer being Shearer turned up that fateful day and no-one wanted to go in goal so he volunteered and was apparently a decent ‘keeper at the time for his age, 15m quid later… From what I heard, the old "Shearer went for a trial at Newcastle and they put him in goal" story is funny, but only true on a technicality. Yes Shearer played for a while in goal, but so did everyone, because there wasn't anyone who was a dedicated goalie in that group. So they all took a turn, but just for a few minutes. Shearer played in his correct position for most of the trial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peppe Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 What does "agreed in principle" mean? It's kind of done, but not really? Can he fuck off somewhere else or is the deal in principle binding? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would also depend of FIFA/UEFA rules regarding contracting outside the windows. That said, it does seem to happen a bit, so must have some kind of standing.

Be hard on the brother (four years older). He's already had to watch Garang go past him in the Oz NT set up and then he'd be sitting on teh bench hearing the crowd sing his brother's name. Mind you, I hear they're very close and that when Stuttgart signed Alou he told them: "You've signed the wrong Kuol. Garang is better than me."

I like the recent interview after his Oz debut when he says he called his brother and said "what happened mate?" in a strong Australian accent regarding beating him to the NT.

Groundhog63 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 As is the way with this rekindled passion for the Toon, I'm rather excited about this development. Just a bairn like but Id suspect we've beaten a few runners and riders to this one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

STM Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I associate the Australian accent with white blokes, blonde hair and hats with corks that I was surprised when he spoke.
