geordieshandy 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 You were expecting Bellamy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Pathetic, really. Especially when you consider Shearers standing in the game and England connections. Think of who turned out for Pedro's testimonial... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 44888 Posted May 10, 2006 Author Share Posted May 10, 2006 It's our first team plus his only 4 mates in football vs. Celtic's first team/reserve squad. Shearer must be a proper billy no mates, or else there's been no planning put into this at all. I saw Steve Watson at SJP a fortnight ago and he was shit! I've no desire to see him again.

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Maybe the invites didn't reach Newell, Ruddock and Flowers. They are his other football buddies aren't they? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 21924 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 absolute gash tbh. especially against celtic. i expected some kind of select eleven of former toon/england team mates. at least sir les will get a big shout Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM4 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 What do you expect organising it this time of the year with a World Cup weeks away!!!! Another reason along with Alan maybe playing why they should have waited until the Summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 What a load of shite, it's an attempt to make it competitive despite the fact it'll just make it boring as fuck. Where's Gazza, Keegan, Roy Chubby Brown, and the latest up and coming boy band? Testimonial my arse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy Face 29 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 The real reason Shearer quit playing for England - no-one would talk to the boring Billy no buddies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spongebob toonpants 3997 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 I like to think I am down with the kids, but I havent even heard of this boy band Testimonial my arse. Are they any good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smooth Operator 10 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Looks like it'll be as bad as Rob Lee's, I recommend you all go to see the strippers at the Sports Cafe pre match (Natalia is incredible!) cos the match is gonna be so so shit!

It's just a shame the bar staff/management haven't got a brain cell amongst them so I have to wait 35 minutes to get served before a match. S-H-I-T Shithole!

Woodgate27 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Should be after the WC and should NOT have featured Celtic. I fail to see the connection between the big fella and the bhoys. Should have invited Blackburn, adding Bellamy into the mix would have made it spicey. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 It should have been the current squad Vs a Shearer XI, comprising of people he's played with. You would have packed the place and we got have got a few familar faces from the 90's back here...your Alberts and Tinos for example. Fuck it being a competitive game of football.

JawD 99 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 At the same time though, have you seen either recently? Albert piled the weight on and Tino's prob in jail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Tino would have jumped at the chance. He could have used it as an opportunity to traffick loads of coke. Allegedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut 146 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 Should have been a mix of past & present players. And not Newcastle v Celtic. Something like an England XI v Alan Shearer XI, with people like Batty, Le Tissier, Hendry, Flowers, Sutton, Ruddock, Ripley, Ferdinand, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Boyo 24 Posted May 10, 2006 Share Posted May 10, 2006 (edited) That's shit that like. Have a good night Gemmill...! Sorry to not see Pedro, Gazza or Batty there, & maybe Tino too... Edited May 10, 2006 by Geordie Boyo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
