Good man Stephen Ireland... (5 Viewers)

[Cormcolash]

Apparently he's got death threats now. Either that or Roy Keane was on the phone to him trying to sign him.

 

[тхеодоре кацзынски]

Death threats are a bit much,the man's obviously emotionally unstable.

 

[Cormcolash]

Maybe they just said they were going to feed him to the sharks, not realising he has one swimming about below his living room

I'm crying, reading this.

So have you finally given up defending this lunatic then? I haven't got the energy to dig it up, but I remember us agreeing that time will tell who was right on his Ireland walk-out debacle.
Fuck this knob end.

 

[Hector Grey]

he's a card, that lad:

Newcastle's Leon Best and Stephen Ireland have issued an apology to the club and its supporters after being pictured at the Tup Tup Palace nightclub in the city on Friday evening.
The pair had been ruled out of Saturday's game at Stoke, which Newcastle lost 4-0, but accept going to a bar was "inappropriate".
A statement released through the club read: "Although we had both been ruled out of the game at Stoke and didn't travel with the team, we realise that going out to a bar was inappropriate ahead of Saturday's game and we fully regret doing so.
"We were asked to have our photograph taken and we removed our shirts as a tongue-in-cheek joke between friends, but of course the resulting coverage in the press suggests a far different night out.
"Whilst our actions were wrong, neither of us had consumed alcohol and we were out for only a very short period of time.
"However, with the team having an important game at Stoke the following day, we should never have put ourselves or the club in that position."
The Newcastle manager, Alan Pardew, was asked about the incident after Saturday's game and said: "That is a situation I have to look at on Monday morning. It is news to me. It is not an ideal situation when you have a game on Saturday, even though they are injured. I will look at that."

I thought everyone in Newcastle went to the pub and took their shirts off on a Friday night.

[Cormcolash]

Hahaha fucking hell, trying to drag Leon Best down with him too it seems!

 

[Hector Grey]

it's beautiful.

 

[Hector Grey]

but seriously folks, why the fuck are they apologising? what's the world coming to? would rodney marsh apologise? would bowles?

jessies.

 

[ratmonkey]

They should really have used the "we're sorry if some people are upset" type apology where you apologise for other people being retards instead of apologising for what they're upset about.

 

[Jerry Twig]

Leon Best is apologising through shame...the shame of being caught out with Daddy Dick.

 

[Hector Grey]

that's some shameful shit, alright.

but seriously, what wanker gets upset at that?

 

[washingcattle]

4-0 to Stoke. I'd be upset with the pair of useless cunts.

I wanted to ring Mikel Artetas neck when his red card lead to us losing 4-1 to WBA and I love that little spaniard. Imagine having to look at the pink obsessed, bald tossers gurning twatism while knowing he did fuck all to stop Stoke looking like a real fucking team.

yeah, cos he and best weren't available to play. seriously, there's a load of professional footballers at newcastle, a few of whom took to the pitch against stoke. it's a load of bollocks if you ask me. it would be differnet if they were shit on the picth and acted liek they didn't give a fuck, but this was before the game, and while they were both injured. it's pc gone mad, i tells ya.

 

[washingcattle]

Ah I didn't know Best was out.

 

[Jerry Twig]
