RobsonsWonderland Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Gavin Peacock Without him and his goals I don't think we would have stayed up in Keegans first year or had the promotion year we did. Obviously Kelly and then Cole took the end of season headlines but he was a favourite of mine as a kid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newcastle Fan Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 (edited) For me i would agree with Daryl Murphy as even i forgot about him until i saw his name on the third page of this thread, he did exactly the job we bought him for and left. Danny Guthrie did quite well for us in the championship and in the season we've finished 5th under Pardew too.

IIRC he played in CM with Acuna, can't remember who against but it was a decent side, and got man of the match. And if i also IIRC, he said himself afterwards it should have been Acuna, which would have been quite right, they were both excellent but Acuna was brilliant in the game.

Jonas Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 10 hours ago, Elma said: If we're thinking totally forgotten, and can include loans, then Paul Bodin was decent in the six games he played for us. I remember one game that was played in really strong wind, he was the only player sensible enough to drill passes into players at pace. Wish I knew/could remember the game for that nuance. Could probably narrow it down easy enough, home game yeah? Boro on boxing day I think was a bit blowy. Was a weird signing because he was good for that good Swindon team under Ossie and would have been a good signing for us then, much less when we were much worse and his in the meantime having gone to a higher division. Felt quite a coup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scored a ridiculous volley in Brugge. My memory is basically every game Pardew having to swap him to right back and putting Perch in centre midfield so we had some physicality in there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt quite a coup. Yeah it was definitely a home game. I remember sitting in the Milburn stand and he pinged one down the line when everyone else was playing the ball normally and it was getting caught up in the wind. Had to be either Boro or Bristol Rovers as I missed the 2-2 with Port Vale as I was in sixth form and had a school event on that Saturday at Chillngham Castle. In my mind's eye the oppo were in red so probably Boro. Looking at those results, we didn't do that well in his six games - the last one was horrific and probably spelled the beginning of the end of Ossie. I remember listening to that on Metro Radio on New Year's Day. Charles Harrison's radio link went down and he did the first 45 minutes over the phone if I recall correctly.

Stottie Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 I've skim read the thread to see if he has been forgotten but I will say Ki Sung-Yueng Fairly standard midfield destroyer/recycler who didn't cost anything, but usually put a decent shift in, doing Shelvey's running for him. Classic Rafa signing, making the most of the little available to him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To the point when my Mum bought me a load of Corinthian figures and both of them were in the collection, I used to snap the legs etc. Crazy how they were both injury prone. Was obviously an unknown voodoo master as a kid🤣 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coffee_Johnny Posted August 5 Share Posted August 5 Paul Goddard. Never quite demonstrated his form for West Ham, but made a difference/reliable striker. Have nagging memory that he was something to do with the Boys Brigade? Nickname Sarge? (Really hope early dementia isn’t setting in!) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LionOfGosforth Posted August 6 Share Posted August 6 17 hours ago, Shearergol said: I thought Paul Kitson was decent but think I was in the minority at the time Seem to recall playing against Sheff Wed around 94 and he played up front and looked amazing for about half an hour. Then he took a ball full in the face, had to go off and was never quite the same again. Scored a hat trick against Swansea in the cup later on I think.
