Praha06 Posted September 3, 2008 Author Share Posted September 3, 2008 newcastle? Aye, maybe the Toon board have given up on persuading "King Kev" to forgive them and come back to the table.

Jambosimmy Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 and they tell us we're in turmoil. WTF is going on in English football. this seems a strange one imo. Apparently curbs was not impressed with the sale of George Mcartney and Anton Ferdinand. It seems the Icelandic Owner maybe involved more than people think.

Captain Canada Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Think he resigned because Ferdinand and McCartney were allowed to leave against his wishes and Ljunberg was released. They also have a foreign director of football who influenced decisions. Basically he wasn't allowed to manage the way he's used to, just like Keegan and some managers at a well known Scottish club - can't think of their name at the moment!

Didn't he sign for West Ham over Liverpool. Obviously playing for a team with at least a chance of winning something was not a huge factor in his wifes decision.

Gavsy Van Gaverson Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Not exactly surprising. He signed duds last year like Bellamy, Neill and Dyer all for big money only for them all to pick up injuries straight away. West Ham have also recently started selling players without him wanting to let them go, so when you combine them both it is probably for the best that he leaves.

Seymour M Hersh Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Engineered his move to West Ham based completely on cash knocking back Liverpool. Seems little shifty to me. I don't think he did engineer anything. The dafty that took over at west ham offered some outrageous weekly wage (c?90k iirc) which was about ?40k above what Liverpool were offering.

Yup thats about right i remember him being offered a ridiculous wage not sure on those figures tho. Gee eh Liverpool for ?30k a week and may not get a game or ?60k a week with West Ham TAXI !!

Jambosimmy Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 some folk need to cool hteir jets on here.. jeez!!! Its prob got nothing to do with any of the players and simply the fact the the owner has more of a say in team matters and who he wants to bring in etc. its common knowledge these days that this does happen not only at tynie but chelsea have had the same problem with shevchenko. Look at newcastle now too. where the hell did that come from. Any chance of an autograph from lucas?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dafty that took over at west ham offered some outrageous weekly wage (c?90k iirc) which was about ?40k above what Liverpool were offering. At the time, it looked like it was a done deal that Neill would go to Anfield and then came the sale to West Ham with the player alleging that Rafa hadn't spoken to him making Lucas apparently feeling unwanted. Rafa said this as nonsense and in the below link hints that Neill was a chancer - something that receives added weight when it turned out that West Ham were offering double the weekly wage than Liverpool (60k v 30k). http://www.premiershiplatest.com/news/liverpool-boss-rafa-benitez-refutes-luca-55860.html Personally, to me it showed a lack of ambition on Neill's part and somewhat of a lucky escape for Liverpool who in the end, didn't end up with someone who was clearly not ready to join a club of this magnitude (18 league titles and five European Cups before some Man Utd soft lad weighs in with the usual Theatre of Dreams nonsense).

Lack of ambition maybe but in the short life span of a footballer someone says to you eh before you goto that team for 30k a week are you interested in ours for eh 60k a week. Im sure most players would have a think about it and see the retirement fund increase 100%. Im not saying all players would do it but i think alot would.

N User Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Just saw a bit of a Curbs interview on SSN. Sounds VERY similar to what Romanov does(/did?) at Hearts. Curbishley with little control over players going in or out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh yes.................I was sitting at home rather ****ed with a hibs mate of mine and I decided to wind up some people on kickback. It worked. Thanks. I am personally getting a bit hacked off with the many pesonal vendettas that are clogging up threads. Can I suggest that the pair of you bitch via PM's and give the rest of us a bit of peace. If you want to go on the wind up can I suggest that it may be better not to tell all on JKB that this is what you are up to as I am sure the mods will take notice of this and take the appropriate action. before I forget. I think that Alan Curbishley is a very good manager who will only be out of work for an extended time if that is his choice. If he wants to get back quickly I am sure it won't be long before various positions become available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im sure most players would have a think about it and see the retirement fund increase 100%. Im not saying all players would do it but i think alot would. You would hope that in Neill's case, he doesn't squander the retirement fund as many of his ilk have. After all, say for argument's sake that Liverpool had not lost the 2007 European Cup Final to Milan. Neill would probably have been part of that team had he joined. If his pension fund was blown in later years, that medal might well have been a nice little life-saver to auction off. All hypothetical of course as events turned out different but I'll wager that when watching that Liverpool v Milan final, something would have been gnawing away at Neill that he could and should have been playing in that match and will probably never get that chance again.
