stevie carr's career slide

[hodspurs]

was a good player in his prime - even united was after him for awhile if I remember correctly.

best right back in the prem before his injury..

You mean Brummies? :lol:

Shhhh...nobody else knows

I've no sympathy. I'd have accepted him leaving but the parting comments were a little acidic.

On another note....people go on about Chelsea ruining talented payers (which they do) but Newcastle must be top of the table in that league.

Duff, Dyer, Bowyer, Solano, Parker, Viduka, Smith, Butt in the last couple of years alone. Most suffered a slump in form within a year or two and half of them left

I would take Solano out of this equation. He was one of the sucessess at Newcastle that made them tick. Its an insult tying him with that bunch.

 

[Bulletspur]

Possibly sour grapes, but the reality of it is that we sold him and at the time Newcastle looked more likely to win something that we did.

Lets be honest here, the only thing we have won in the last ten years is the Carling Cup, hardly the top of things great.

We have never been in the Champions League, were Newcastle have.

Modern day 'big clubness' Newcastle are just below the top four (didn't the stats prove that too?

It all comes back to the old debate. Yes they were in the CL, does that make them more successful than us? What have they actually won in the last 50 years, other than promotion into the top flight? It is a serious question as I dont know of any successes but I could be wrong.

Let's sign him back on a free and keep him as cover for Hutton

 

[Barmy_in_Palmy]

He's made so much money he won't really give a fuck what we think, he'll never have to work again in his life and still be better off than all of us. So really he's the one who's laughing.


Also, he's a ****.

Yeah I know what you mean, I just know that in recent times more people class newcastle as more successful than Spurs.

Maybe sustained success, we are better, but for higher league positions, CL qualification, then they should be classes higher.

I did hear that if we finish above them this season, then we will factually be classed as the fifth biggest/best team in the premiership.
