Holden McGroin 6366 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 We've seemingly accepted his crapness and embraced him as a cult hero now. I think he is an excellent championship striker but not quite good enough to be consistent in the PL. He has done well to make a career at the top level. Fair play to him as well. He seems like a top lad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADP 0 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 We were saying at the weekend, it's like someone has finally taught him how to turn with the ball. Like it's taken him till the age of 32 but he's suddenly gone 'ah..I see.' Basically, aye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essembeeofsunderland 811 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 He's playing for his final contract and a testimonial .If Harper deserved one then Shola does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10543 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 Lets not go crazy. He's still a very limited player. However, he's playing with a maturity, intelligence and calm assurance on the ball we've not seen before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1208 Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 I think it's very nearly the time that the east stand gets renamed the Shola Ameobi stand. He could then go on to replace JFK as DOF and eventually when he's become a multi billionaire (possibly through some Back To The Future style invention of a time machine bringing back a Grays Sports Almanac) he buys the club, invests hundreds of millions on the squad, wins us a league, FA Cup and champions league treble and finally he becomes life president and gifts the club back to fans and sets up trust fund that provides £100m a season in transfer funds. All this while being president of Nigeria (after leading the line in their successful 2014 world cup bid) and being knighted! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on previous summers this will eventually translate into no players in and shola on a pay for play contract. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 If Shola even comes close to signing a contract then it's pretty clear where this club is headed, if we didnt already know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4281 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 If Shola even comes close to signing a contract then it's pretty clear where this club is headed, if we didnt already know. I've been saying for years that his continued presence sounds a death knell for the club and any season where he is within touching distance of the team is an automatic write-off.

Dr Gloom 21559 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 strikers that don't score goals are the future. like a new signing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21559 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Ryan Taylor will be a like a new signing though to be fair oh, definitely. and jonas returning from loan. those two plus shola signing a new deal means we only have a couple of new faces to bring in, and we can use the proceeds of the cabaye sale to fund the transfer fees, wages and agent fees of any such deals.

OTF 7163 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Let's hope the last chapter has been written in his book at Newcastle United. There's been a few odd paragraphs of brilliance in there, but for a tale of that length the plot failed to develop at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaddockLad 16721 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) I saw him score in the Nou Camp in the champions league. And the Bay Arena. Been shite since then mind. 13 seasons Edited May 11, 2014 by PaddockLad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howay 12496 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 After shouting Dowd down today he should put on that "whyaye man" costume and become a leader in the anti Ashley movement, he's good at yelling at fat cunts as he's the first man to get through Dowd's thick skin.

ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 I have a feeling he'll either sign for somebody local or retire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aimaad22 3999 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 He should find himself a championship club, have a couple of 15-20 goal seasons. Go out on a high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClubSpinDoctor 0 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Boro might take him. He's been reluctant to move out of the area in the past, he's probably made more than enough to retire now. I hate life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
