Baggio 0 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) Closet Souness supporter! "The vast majority of Rangers fans that I met, at the time, during the 80's, were in awe of Souness. The insisted that he was "the greatest manager going" or he "had turned the club around" all the usual comments..... At the time Liverpool appointed him to ressurect their former glories...and a fair few scousers thought he would do it on the basis of winning a 2 man league in Jockland.....and a fair few Rangers fans did too as well. Further down the line...who was at the Newcastle v Liverpool game, the 3-0 one which was the subject of the "bribes" allegation....who remembers the Leazes End singing "Souness for sunderland". I do. At the time, I was completely convinced that Souness v Keegan was absolutely no contest. We had the best manager by far, the one who was going to take us places, and the scousers had boobed and been totally deceived by his record and achievements in a league of no competition. Over the years, circumstances have proved differently. While personally I think Keegan has never been the same since he left us, and if he had stayed the sky would have been the limit, Souness has gained experience, adapted his approach to players ie management style and became IMO a top boss. How good we will see. As I posted last week, his treatment of Craig Bellamy is a test. Does he wash his hands of him as people like Wilkinson and Trevor [blow your nose] Francis did of Cantona, or will he focus him and manage him like Ferguson. It's up to him, just as much as it's up tp Bellamy. Both of them want to be the best, so they both now have the opportunity and the platform and it's the crossroads for both of them, as they say." http://z7.invisionfree.com/toonchat/index.php?showtopic=1228 Edited March 19, 2007 by Baggio Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44796 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 I wouldn't have thought it possible for LM's credibility on here to fall any further. I was wrong. Oh dear. This is fucking HILARIOUS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spongebob toonpants 3992 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 And theres more..... Leazes agreeing with Gemmil sensation here QUOTE (Gemmill @ Dec 23 2004, 07:11 AM) couldntWah wah. Robert whines to the press and everyone leaps to his defence because he's "trying so hard" etc. Souness's comments to the press re Robert are ill-advised and unnecessary but I'm sick to death of Robert and his half hearted attitude towards this club. Kissing his badge is not enough. If he was putting in the outstanding, match-winning performances that some on here see every time he takes to the pitch, there wouldn't be a problem between him and Souness. Neither of them should be going to the press, but take that out of the equation, and banish from your mind the fact that poor put-upon Laurent is being called names by his boss, and he simply doesn't contribute enough for the wealth of talents that he has. And he hasn't done for a long time. I think Souness is probably just as sick of that fact as I am.

nufc4ever 0 Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 (edited) It is perhaps churlish of me to post this: http://www.newcastle-online.com/nufcforum/...98634#msg398634 This poor looking situation the club is in right now will correct itself over time if it turns out that Roeder is a good appointment. If he isn't and it doesn't, then I believe Fred should go. Edited March 19, 2007 by nufc4ever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
