    But many (if not all) could have been even better paid to accept a lucrative transfer rather than sticking to the club they support.

    But could have easily made more elsewhere.

    To be honest, with KK, KD, SBR and CH no matter how bad the performance I never turned on them. I saw their players letting them, the club and the fans down.
    Players... if they put in a ****e, lazy performance where they can't be arsed... I beel like **** at them. They get more in a week* than I do in a year so it boils my piss when they go all 'moussa' on us.


    *for Jakarta read 'they get more in a quarter'

    Don't forget Fredor in your comparisons. Despite the potential draw of appearing for the mighty Sunderland on the Premier League board, he also decided to stick with his beloved Toon, regardless of what division they are in. Credit where credit is due. <applause>

    Can anyone shed any light on the issue of why Shearer's statue stayed unfinished for some time.
    AS mentioned that Newcastle put a hold on it for a while for some reason.

    I thought it was paid for my the Shepherd family. I'm not sure the club had anything to do with this statue as it's not on the club's grounds?

    Googled it yesterday. Shearer said something to the daily mail about Ashley binning it after Freddie sold him the club.
