Ameobi showing he is as good a pundit as he was a footballer. Shola Ameobi talking on Sky Sports before Tottenham match: “You look at the amounts of money you need to pay to buy superstars now….Mike Ashley has come out and said he hasn’t got the funds to do that…to compete with Manchester City and Liverpool. “He is a businessman, and unfortunately for the Newcastle fans, he wants to run his business in a way that is sustainable. “Credit to Mike Ashley…because you look at the likes of Aston Villa, and these clubs who are struggling financially. “The one thing that Mike Ashley has done for Newcastle over these last ten years, is to stabilise the club – where the club is running itself and we’ve got no debt. “That’s credit to Mike Ashley but obviously fans of a football team want to progress year on year, they want to see big players. “We can be quietly happy with our business… “I know behind the scenes Rafa Benitez would have been fighting tooth and nail to get the players in but I’m just delighted that we have managed to get seven players in because the squad was light. “They needed players and Rafa understood that. “The turmoil will have been there because he will have been screaming to get players in and thankfully it’s happened in the last week or so.” How to become an ex cult hero in one afternoon. Muppet.
Did you ever see him on MTV Cribs, or something like that ....................dear ****ing me .................... thick as ****ing treacle and taste in decor like Liberace!!
Except the hundred plus million quid that the club 'owes' the bloke that owns it!! These pundits really do talk ****e!!
“I’m just delighted that we have managed to get seven players in because the squad was light.” So Shola how many extra players did we end up with in our light squad?
These ****ers really are thick as pig ****. How can you not even spend, I dunno, half an hour just on Twitter and get yourself informed? Embarrassing. Crap footballer, worse pundit.
I think he's just licking arse with him being a free agent and us able to sign free agents (I think we can?).
A true Geordie God, with every right to his own opinions. If you don't like what he says, tough ****ing luck. Perhaps the Manager and Captain should be rounded on next for issuing that joint statement with Charney.
Meh. Was he a geordie legend for anything other than the almost hipster ironic celebration of his ****ness? Oh and the fact he's meant to be a fan, which he evidently is not.
Your opinion not mine. I respect Shola, more than I respect most people's opinions on here. What a load of bollocks to say he's not a fan. BTW, maybe you should look a bit more in depth into Shola's recent status with the Club.
I was just successfully winding you up. And nah, what fan is behind Mike Ashley's running of the club that isn't pouchy, pouchy.
Have to say I thought he spoke very well,which was a surprise to me,made some good comments with insight,don't think he deserves some of the comments on here but everyone has the right to an opinion,( and I hate fat mike )
well **** me. I'm so wound up, i obviously have so much to learn on the the art of wumming. Speaking of Pouchy, weren't you one of the little sprats that kept on jumping into his net day after day. Thank **** I have an expert to help me out.
You need to have a word with Heed mate. He knows the way around these forums... He’ll keep you right...
Nah, been out over the town since 11. Besides anyone who says a bad word about Shola should be HDQ, but in a gibbet and the burnt at the stake for good measure. If by some chance they're still breathing, the guillotine would be a good way of ending things.
Shola stole a living from playing for us. He was utter garbage as a player. As for his comments, everyone is entitled to their own opinion but what a knobba!
