    "The wealthy 22-year-old returned to his hometown of Gateshead for Newcastle United’s biannual boxing dinner where his former club were raising money for local charities.

    One of the items up for auction was a Newcastle United shirt signed by club captain Kevin Nolan.

    After being involved in a bidding war Carroll came out on top – paying £900 for the Magpies shirt. But instead of keeping it for himself, the kind-hearted Liverpool striker handed it to the person he outbid."

    If he'd given to me I'd have spat in it and give him it back...

    Wow, giving away £900, that must be killer out of the £80,000 he earned last week.

    Awww it really warms your cockles hearing lovely stories about that ponytailed bellend. He could give a kidney to a blind orphan i'd still think he was a money grabbing cocksucker

    Nolan looks after Carroll. I reckon he came up with this to make Carroll look good, gave him one of his shirts and told him what to do.

    £900 from his £80,000p/w? What a generous man, lets all welcome him back with welcome arms.

    This, for the average man it's quite a generous gesture but from him it's nothing. No doubt he had double that in his wallet

    This was posted earlier, if it's the original Chronicle article - does anyone else find it convenient that the report is all straight from the mouth of his bum buddy & self-appointed voice of the fans, Steve Wraith?
    I wonder if he's moved into the PR industry instead of the fanzine one!

    I still like the guy so much so that i questioned if being a scouse twat might be ideal for me. Great gesture from a great player. He'll certainly be welcomed back by me.
