Tom 14021 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 This seems to be mainly women and it looks pointless. I also can't understand how it is better than a regular throw in as you can't see where it's going and the velocity of the ball seems the same. It looks cool as fuck though!

JawD 99 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Aye, it was Watson like. Didnt he do it during Rob Lee's testimonial? Think it was Lee's anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut 260 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 Aye, it was Watson like. Didnt he do it during Rob Lee's testimonial? Think it was Lee's anyway. The Peter Beardsley one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smooth Operator 10 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 He did in in a testimonial i remember and he did it in a league game when he was first starting out, can't remember who it was against. I remember seeing him practicing it at Benfield, Lee Clark was trying it as well but couldn't do it but Watson was class at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14021 Posted November 1, 2008 Author Share Posted November 1, 2008 I have a very very bad memory but I doubt I would have forgotten it had I seen it first hand. Did he ever do it in a League Game? By the way in the modern game it looks to be mainly women that do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattM4 0 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 It also looks a foul throw Neither of those were. ... as an aside, the amount of foul throws you get these days is crazy though. Refs just don't seem to give a shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way in the modern game it looks to be mainly women that do it He definately did it at St James Park cos it was right in front of me in the milburn paddock, so the likelihood is ot was a competitive game.

Smooth Operator 10 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 he done it in an Angle Italian iirc also done it at Ayresome Park, and Beardo's testimonial Or Anglo Italian even, that's it, as soon as I read that i knew it was that, against Cremonese or Ascoli or some such.

Craig 6700 Posted November 1, 2008 Share Posted November 1, 2008 League Cup game at Ayresome Park was the first time Watson did it.. and they were talking about it for ages. The sort of thing he use to reserve for odd occassions when the prize wasn't too massive I guess but I think he was the first to try it. Who they fuck is Steve Howie btw?

Tom 14021 Posted November 2, 2008 Author Share Posted November 2, 2008 I couldn't care less what you think to be honest. I look forward to reading ''How To Spell Howey : A definitive history of Newcastle United'' Tedious and boring and you should be embarrassed, fall off that high horse and break your neck on the way.
