"BLOODY RUBBISH!" FROM THE TABLOIDS 29-1-05
It looks like the popular Craig Bellamy is leaving our Geordie brethren for Birmingham. David Gold;
"This is the biggest financial outlay we have ever made and it shows how serious we are. I think this will turn out a bargain signing, even though the fee is £6m."
Shows how serious you are? Shows how "Bloody Rubbish!" you are more like. I wouldn't give the Geordies two bob for a load of "Bloody Rubbish! like Bellamy. Mind you he'll fit in well with Heskey because he's a bigger load of "Bloody Rubbish!" £6m and £45k a week wages for a player who feigned injury? I'm not surprised Birmingham have gone "Bloody Rubbish!"
The Mirror make a big thing about the backing that Graeme Souness received from the club;
"Souness was backed by chairman Freddie Shepherd and club captain Alan Shearer..."
Well that just proves what everyone has known all along- that Alan Shearer really does have the power at Newcastle. What a "Bloody Rubbish!" way of doing things. I'm not surprised that the club is in the "Bloody Rubbish!" mess that it is in when a member of the playing staff has to approve everything that goes on. "Bloody Rubbish!" the lot of 'em and if I was connected to the North East's second best club, I'd be ashamed of the "Bloody Rubbish!" carry on that goes on there every week.
******************************
Kevin Blackwell appears to have the backing of his new chairman;
""It was great to get the chairman's backing and it was interesting the amount of people who applied for the job, even though I was still in it. Now we can start looking forward as a club. I can look to improve the team and I think we need four or five more players."
"Bloody Rubbish!" man! You need eleven new players and a new manager. As for the amount of people applying for the job, well you always get a load of "Bloody Rubbish" managers who've just been sacked applying for jobs on the off chance. Peter Reid for example. Oh sorry, they had him, didn't they. And he was probably the most "Bloody Rubbish!" of the whole lot. Maybe they should try Terry Venables? Hang on, they had him as well and he was "Bloody Rubbish!" for them as well. What about Howard Wilkinson? He's on the dole at the moment after doing a "Bloody Rubbish!" job at Sunderland? OK, better keep Blackwell then. For now.
******************************
One good manager came out fighting this weekend. Micky Adams;
"I need to see an attitude and standards on the training field and if I do then I will be happy. I am not prepared to accept mediocrity."
Micky. A question. If you're not prepared to accept mediocrity, then why did you join a load of "Bloody Rubbish!" like Coventry City? Must have been a straight choice between that and the "Bloody Rubbish!" job at Leeds, I imagine. Fair play in that case and I hope they put the "Bloody Rubbish!" Geordies out of the cup today.
******************************
Alex Ferguson on today's FA Cup showdown with Boro;
"I don't think it has any extra significance because we lost a game on Wednesday."
Do you really expect us to believe that load of "Bloody Rubbish!" Fergie? This is United's last chance to win a trophy this season as they can write off their Premiership and Champion's League chances right away. A trophy-less season for Manchester United means it was a "Bloody Rubbish!" season for them and so Boro should not get lulled into a false sense of security today. If we play as well as we can, we can do it. Win this and we could be on our way to Cardiff again. Lose and it may be us saying it was a "Bloody Rubbish!" season come May. So it is quite significant really.
******************************
Gary Neville tries to use some psychology on Boro;
"Steve McClaren is a brilliant coach, one of the best you could ever wish to play under. He is doing a great job at Middlesbrough and one day will probably go on to do even greater things at another club."
We're not falling for that load of old "Bloody Bubbish!" at all. The comment was clearly designed to undermine Boro ahead of the FA Cup clash but we're just not buying it. If Gary Neville wants to start the mind games then he better take some more lessons from his manager, who will no doubt dissuade him from coming out with "Bloody Rubbish!" comments like this.
******************************
But pick of the crop today comes from Ryan Giggs;
"We were too good for Chelsea."
Well that just has to be the biggest load of "Bloody Rubbish!" ever spoken by any living person, ever. The final score was Chelsea 2 United 1, so how can you have been too good for them? There'll no doubt be even more "Bloody Rubbish!" coming out of Old Trafford tonight when Boro knock them out of the cup. They'll probably say that we won because they were too good for us. Or something equally as "Bloody Rubbish!"
And finally, today Boro travel to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United in the FA Cup fourth round. Our FA Cup record is "Bloody Rubbish!" and always has been. Here's a good chance to start putting it right because it's about time Boro brought the FA Cup to Teesside.
More "Bloody Rubbish!" by Harry Haverton coming your way next weekend.
