It must hurt him to watch us do well. I have to say he was a top class player who I loved watching over the years. He also gave me one of my favourite moments in going to the games over the years. Just happens to be the best game I've ever been to! 4-2 Sheff Wed in the rain. I think it was a Monday? Cole 2, Mathie wonder goal and another KK special plucked from obscurity Allen getting the third. Geordie boy Andy Sinton got both of theirs. Waddle was also in their line up and had sauntered over to the Milburn Paddock where I was to take a throw. In true vocal Newcastle fashion at the time, the fans weren't giving him the lickings of a dog and chanting allsorts. He simply turned and waved his fingers like the conductor of an orchestra. We stopped and gave him a massive cheer for entering into the banter.
Still a biased horrible Mackem now though![]()
He was popular enough when he was here, but as you say, he's still a biased horrible Mackem now.
