Why Owen will never be liked on Tyneside
By Lee Ryder on Apr 20, 11 12:48 PM
So Michael Owen has finally woken up to the fact that he will be one of
the most unpopular players ever to return to St James' Park.
Well, if any player deserved such a rocky ride on his return to Tyneside
then it would have to be Owen.
Let's be fair, when Owen was fully fit for Newcastle United his goal
record stood up to the best of them at St James' Park.
Unfortunately, many people questioned just how much he wanted to be fit
for Newcastle and how much he wanted to be fit for England.
There wasn't much he could do about getting injured in the World Cup in
2006.
But it was his insistence on being wrapped up in cotton wool in the lead
up to the competition that annoyed most Toon fans in his first season with
the club.
We barely seen Owen play in the 2006/07 and it wasn't the goals that kept
coming it was the injuries.
During such time Owen's refusal to talk to the local media at length
didn't do him any favours with articles about England appearing in the News
of the World only rubbing people up the wrong way even more.
Good performances in a black and white shirt were few and far between.
He done well under Kevin Keegan, he didn't want to know under Joe
Kinnear, refused to sign a lucrative contract and then left on a free
transfer to pick up more money at Man United.
Booing should have came as no surprise to Owen.
Just to add to the debacle, Owen's new found fondness to communicate with
fans via Twitter (something some PR hot-shot will have dreamed up for him)
resulted in these comments: "From a personal point of view it was nice to get
on.
"I got a poor reception off the home fans which was disappointing.
"I was desperate to score.
"I knew I would get booed as that's what a lot of fans do, but if they
knew the facts then they may have a different opinion."
Owen added: "From what most of you Newcastle fans are saying you should
be pleased I left the club.
"If I had known that earlier I could have left sooner.
"For the record I tried my best in every game for Newcastle.
"Under Kevin Keegan I played well and I'll never forget the two goals I
scored against Sunderland.
"When I meet Newcastle or Liverpool fans they all respect what I've done
for the clubs.
"In stadiums that changes - one boos and the rest follow. By the way I'm
not looking for sympathy."
Sorry Michael, you're never likely to get an ounce of sympathy on
Newcastle.

話說大牌只需要在剩下的英超比賽出場兩次
就可以拿到他生涯第一個英超冠軍!
究竟,老爵爺會否讓他一圓追求十多年的夢想呢?
大牌今朝講想當年打比時的梅開二度
他日也會講想當年打比時的補時絕殺
可是每個人都只會記得 "May Fergie be with you,XXXXXXXX"
你千萬不要離開英超啊,讓紐卡所有鄉民每年至少噓死你一次。
