LeazesMag 0 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Are you blaming the board we didn't get him like Leazes? Howay man. We went in for him and didn't get him. Ambitious bid on the part of the board that didn't come off. Plain and simple. The way you try and make everything into an old board v the new board thing is canny tiresome like. I'm not basing it on anything other than we didn't get him, and the comments that Mort has made for some months now don't fill me with optimism that they will go for the players that a club like us ought to do. As I said, a statement or two of the intention to get into the top 4 and the aim to win a trophy or two would be more helpful, don't kid yourself I'm the only one thinking like this, because I'm not. There are lots of supporters out there who don't come onto these message boards. Do you know why he chose Spurs instead of us, he did spend time training with us didn't he ? This wasn't a statement of intent? I give up to be honest. Different to Rooney ? He chose Spurs, we didn't get our man. He didn't choose Manu or Chelsea instead of us, he chose fucking Spurs man !!!

Guest alex Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Souness was a class Newcastle manager btw. When compared to many of those pre-Keegan. Well I wouldn't go that far. Arthur Cox, Gordon Lee and Joe Harvey were miles better but I suppose putting him alongside the likes of Bill McGarry, Dinnis and Ardiles would be fair. I wasn't being entirely serious, believe it or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ewerk 26550 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 don't know where people keep getting this story from, I suspect its a case of someone spreading it, and people beleiving it because they want to. Whats your opinion on Abramovic wanting to buy Shevchenko and Mourhinho not ? Does that make Abramovic a shit chairman/owner ? Basically, assuming its true and nobody knows it if is or not, if every chairman was shit on account of interfering, there would hardly be any who were any good at all. But don't let that stop you from continuing to think NUFC were the worst run club in the world despite qualifying for europe more than everybody but 4 teams. I wouldn't suppose you are basing it on Souness accounts of him not being allowed to buy a couple of players he wanted, because we all know he's an utter shite. I wouldn't believe a word Souness said, SBR on the other hand has spoken of Shepherd's interference in transfers. And whilst I don't agree with Abamovich's interference in transfers I don't think the signing of Shevchenko impacted on the rest of Mourinho's 'budget' as he seemingly had an open cheque book for a while so the point is moot. I don't want to linger on the past, I'd rather focus on the now and the future. Keegan has a budget (and a seemingly considerable one at that) and has already spoken about how he is free to spend it as he wishes. It seems he didn't want to spend too much of it on this player yet Ramos was, that's the end of the story as far as I'm concerned, all this talk of how the board has/hasn't backed him is irrelevant at this point in time.

Hadrian 0 Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 FURIOUS Kevin Keegan wants an explanation after losing out on Croatian star Luka Modric. Newcastle boss Keegan was convinced Modric was all set for Tyneside only to discover Spurs had sealed a £20million deal with Dinamo Zagreb. After parading Modric at training this week, Keegan was raging yesterday at the Geordie's team hotel before the 2-2 draw at West Ham. West Ham 2, Newcastle 2: Click here for full report and picture special Tottenham 1, Bolton 1: Click here for full report and picture special A Newcastle source said: "It was difficult to calm Kevin down, he was furious. "It's a major embarrassment as Kevin felt getting Modric would have been the perfect message to Newcastle fans." Striker Modric has been a target for top clubs including Chelsea and Arsenal after his form for Croatia in their Euro 2008 qualifying campaign.
