Andy Carroll / Girondins Bordeaux

[Kippax Street 1880]

Reckon Pogba might rock up there aswell

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

He played for Newcastle youth team in a FA Youth Cup semi final at the Ethiad against City - about 15+ years ago ?
Obviously a big lad, but very skillful and a real handfull.
City drew the game, but won the tie. Think Liverpool beat City in the Final ?
He was impressive and looked destined to make it.
Shame he got injured so often, but didn't he have issues at Newcastle, off the pitch when he got into the first team ?

Nothing that bad that I remember, just that he used to go out loads with his mates.

Nothing like Nile Ranger!

Fair enough about Andy Carroll.
Yes, Nile Ranger was horrific.
Trouble is, in the North East, any NUFC player can do whatever they want with very few locals condemning them.
I'm amazed how few NUFC fans have had a pop at Tonali about his betting ban ?
Think both Tonali and A.C.Milan took the Magpies for a long, expensive ride...

There are rumours about some of their players getting up to some naughty stuff recently. Trippier and Joe Elington to name but two. I’ve no idea how true they are, but as you say, they can do what they like if they’re an asset to the football club.

Resident Bordeaux supporter here :) can't wait to see the big man in the flesh when i go over in the new year.

What sorts of crowds are they getting in that division ?

(and do thousands leave early to beat the traffic ?)

 

[cleavers]

Does he still have that shit pony tail?

Had a top knot so yes probably.

Went to both legs of that semi final. In the first leg, up there, he was abysmal. In the second leg he was a real handful.

 

[Electric Blue]

Reckon he could do a job at the swamp that fella alongside Rasmus Birtles !

 

[KS55]

You have to give him credit for carrying on. He obvious still loves the game that in some ways treated him harshly.
