peasepud 59 Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 He's in the papers moaning about Capello not picking him any more today. The fucking neck on the bloke - he doesn't even get a game in the Premiership ffs. tbf he'll have had more experience than many of warming a Wembley bench.

Billy Whitehurst 933 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 What an odious little cunt. Professional footballer and still reduced to snide comments like that. Can't understand the mentality, if I was blessed with ability to play football in front of a crowd for a living then I'd want to do it as often as possible.

PaddockLad 17689 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 (edited) All the old pros from the last 50 years who had as much or even more talent and who are living on fuck all or having to talk cobblers to the media to get by will probably fuckin cry if they see that comment. I've mentioned Gary Imlach's book about his old man's football career before and theres a relevent passage in it when Imlach senior signs for 3rd division Crystal Palace in the early sixties, after world cups and FA cup finals earlier in his career. A local reporter asks him if he feels its a bit of a comedown to sign for lowly Palace and the player doesn't understand the premise of the enquiry: "Stupid bloody question!"...."if you have the oppurtunity to play and the ability to play, then why wouldnt you play?" This from a player who was willing to go on strike a few years earlier to get the maximum wage (£20 a week in the season, less in the summer) abolished, which the likes of Owen have benefited from in an incredible way, the fuckin spoilt bastard.

LoveTheBobby 1 Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I'd say I hope he suffers depression when he finishes playing but can't see it happening as I'm pretty sure he's actually devoid of emotion as well as soul . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rogerbarton 24 Posted June 2, 2011 Share Posted June 2, 2011 (edited) Quite surprised by Owen's comments but they've confirmed to me that he really is a grade A c*nt. Made the following points myself on twitter: @Curu63 @themichaelowen I think he's referring to the Newcastle side he joined the season after they'd finished 4th, 3rd and 5th...and reached the last 16 of the Champions League and semis of the UEFA Cup, for whom he played 58/148 PL games...during which time he pocketed £100k/week and to whom he contributed significantly to their disastrous relegation Reading that back, it was the best way I could combine things whirring around in my head within three of tweets' word limits at 5am after a heavy night...

He's won every club medal available barring the Champions League so not that many failures. Would you be able to look at that PL winners medal and say you deserved it if you'd contributed 238 minutes to the cause? That's LESS than 3 games in total The latter half of his career has been a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, since he didn't play for us much but he's barely kicked a ball for them. Hope he crashes his helicopter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
