LeazesMag 0 Posted October 5, 2005 Author Share Posted October 5, 2005 Don't you think they've been in the papers enough over the last few years? 43258[/snapback] I don't know. What I mean is the only person who talks to the press is Souness. Is this healthy ? At other clubs, players talk to the local press. The conclusion is they are being prevented from doing so, which is pretty daft and isn't enforcing discipline or showing trust, it's just treating them like kids. If he is so confident he has signed the "right sort of players" why doesn't he let them? And no, even Bellamy didn't gob off to the press, it was Robert who did that. If one of those rapists turn out to be one of our players though, thats Souness claims totally in flames though eh ? As he also keeps saying the spirit is so good [disgraceful allegation against what he was left by a vastly superior manager and person, discussed elsewhere] it would be nice to see if some of the players came out and said in fact this was true......

shakermaker 0 Posted October 6, 2005 Share Posted October 6, 2005 footballers interviews are bit crap though aren't they...years of being taught how to handle the press,not wanting to say anything contraversial(lest it should upset a sponsor),which footballers do we think would actually say something worth listening to anyway. lets start a lets keep football on the pitch campaign,boycott any companies that use footballers to advertise,boycott any papers that have footballers columns,tell the publishing world we dont want autobiogs of kids who've barely started their careers,let match of the day know we tape it then fast forward only to the action,missing out all the hansenesque crap.(i feel better and cleaner for that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donaldstott 0 Posted October 7, 2005 Share Posted October 7, 2005 As far as I'm aware there's been no change of policy... Generally a few players are asked (by the club) to give an interview a couple of days before the match. Each media generally gets a different player. Players for post-match interviews are requested by the press. Very often they are turned down Dyer/Bowyer/Bellaz/Robert/Pievert/Bramble/baba/Carr were/are pretty unlikely to agree to them. I can see Emre/Zoggy slipping into this catagory So you get the club sctratching around for a player to put forward for interview, and most of the time you'd get your good old pro (Shearer/Shay/O'B/Hughes/Speed/Jenas/Taylor) coming forward both pre and post match. I would see Owen and Parker slipping into this catagory. So the press won't use the interview cos they've heard from those people too much. I did notice that Baba gave a pre-match interview for Pompey, by my reckoning that'll be pretty much the first since he was unveiled in january..

It just seems that Souness is always talking to the press, and telling us how good the spirit is at the club [which I resent because I see it as a jibe against Sir Bobby Robson who he would be a lot better off trying to learn from]....but never mentions the results !

Still think he is out of order though insinuating the spirit at Newcastle under Sir Bobby was "not very good", when Souness actual results on the pitch are nowhere near as good as Sir Bobs..not to mention the direct insult to him ....

LeazesMag 0 Posted October 10, 2005 Author Share Posted October 10, 2005 While I agree about Fergie LM, you weren't talking about results in this regard. 44441[/snapback] On the contrary Alex, I always have...my beef with Souness is that I have absolutely NO confidence in him at all. [Apart from him being a fuckwit, bully, egotistical wanker, chickenshit coward who put his personal agenda before his job which is to produce a winning football team for MY club, who I would have quite happily watched Bellamy hit him with a hard hammer in return for assaulting him on the training ground, for selling my favourite player at Newcastle who carried that mantle because he is the sort of player I want at Newcastle ie he has talent combined with complete desire to win all the time on the pitch where it matters and no I don't give a toss if he carries baggage or not when he performs like he did on the field] However, if a manager like Alex Ferguson came in and sold Craig Bellamy for football reasons, I would trust him..the same as when Keegan sold Cole.
