Shearer's homecoming in 1995...

"They definitely meant business at the end of the 1995-96 season when i had decided to leave Edwood Park. As i have explained earlier, I returned from our summer holiday with my mind in turmoil about what i should do. The Newcastle and Keegan factors were real complications because I was such a big fan of both. In the end I had to blank out the fact that it was my boyhood hero and my favourite club and make a purely footballing decision. I had to be careful, too, not to be sweet-talked by Kevin because I knew how good he was at that. He did not have to sell himself or the club to me. All he had to do was convince me that a move to Newcastle would benefit us both - and in the end he managed to do so." - Shearer

taken off Shearer: my story so far..













and.. More.. on Owen's signing..

'That was the bottom line to the whole deal, and then when you hear a manager and a chairman and supporters on the television all making it known that they really want you, then that is certainly a nice thing to hear as well.
'They were very important, but you only have to look at the club, the support they have and the players currently here to realise it is a very big club and an even bigger club waiting to happen.'
Owen, who was unveiled in front of an estimated 15,000 ecstatic Newcastle fans at St James' Park this afternoon, agonised over his decision to give the Magpies the answer they craved after Liverpool failed in their belated bid to lure him back to Merseyside.

apparently he was overwhelmed by the amount of support.. who wouldnt be. coming here is prob the best decision of his career.. the bbc provided many pictures.. and audio clips..with shearer on owen.. etc. if anyone is interested.. check it out it's fantastic.. if not i dont give a shit. IM interested.














solano came back too.. just beat the transfer window.. and im just so glad.. he's been fantastic for the club.. he was part of the newcastle team of the past which i loved.. and i just really hope he completes the equation.. this team is fantastic. i dont see why we cant succeed. all the doom and gloom from the start of the season has been erased by all this amazing news.. i dont see how things can get worse from here (:


solano and shearer

and.. this whole thing has just reminded me of a dream i've had since.. forever.. to study in newcastle. it sounds so stupid and childish.. but to me this is so much more than just a football team.. i've grown to love the sport.. but also the city of newcastle and the people.. and just maybe.. i will do something about that.. howay the lads!!
