No problem right? Wrong. Owen then decided to be a little ***** and have another little nibble at the long suffering paying support of Newcastle United by stating that he’d “rather be on the bench at a top club than play every week in a poor team”. Quite understandably this has caused quite a bit of annoyance amongst NUFC fans. Here is what grotbags had to say:
“Just to answer some of your tweets. Prefer playing less often in a top team than every game in a poor team. Been there and didn’t enjoy it.”
I’ve corrected his spelling for him, free of charge, but it’s clear to see who he is referring to with that comment. It was a different case back when Manchester United came to town a month or so ago though wasn’t it.? Owen wasn’t so brave then and looked like he just spat in his pants after coming on as a second half substitute when he heard the reception that he was getting from the St James’ Park stands.
No matter, his head will have no doubt been firmly placed up his **** again soon after so he could mop up his own mess. I mean that is where he must keep his head if he was expecting some sort of friendly welcome on his return.
Owen is the king of sleaze. A risible little dirtbag who has no interest in where he plays football unless he is getting paid handsomely to do so. I’d go as far to say that he would play at any club if the money was right. Unfortunately that is how we got him at Newcastle.
You pay for what you get? Really? Not in the case of Owen who cost the club over £44 million during his four years on Tyneside. In return we got a smattering of goals surrounded by months and months of injury. You could tell when he was going to be fit again – just by taking a look at the England fixtures.
The problem is that Owen seems to be completely absolving himself of any blame for relegation when in reality, as Captain, it should be him that is carrying the majority of the can. We needed fight and motivation yet Owen could inspire neither. In short, as a Captain, Owen is nowhere near fit enough to lace Kevin Nolan’s boots.
What to do about Owen and his inane ramblings? Nothing. Simply do nothing. Clearly the little cherub was rattled by the reception he received so he feels the need to have a moan from the comfort of his own home and in his spare time. Just sit there, chuckle at him, and smile.
Or alternatively you could give the little gimp both barrels by getting in touch with him via his Twitter account @themichaelowen.
One of Booby Clingon’s favourite players of all time!
Owen makes me wretch – an absolute scumbag and rotter.

It’s easy to over-react to this one. He’s simply stating his preference, and he’s right about us being a poor team back then.
What it also shows is that he STILL doesn’t get how he carries a huge part of the responsibility for that team being poor. It’s just his psychology, and he’s never hidden it. He seems to consider himself as this little ‘extra’ that occupies the same space as whatever team is paying his bills, but is never really part of it. A hired gun.
That’s what he is, and his arrangements at Manure make sense for all concerned given that. Leave him to it.
It’s a waste, though – he could be the hero for a lower team rather than a bit-part player in the biggest, but to be honest – he just doesn’t have what it takes to do that, and I think his experience here proved that to him and everyone else.
He’ll never get why we hate him, which says it all, really. If he doesn’t see what’s wrong with captaining a huge club to relegation, then leaving without so much as a word of regret or apology…
Head firmly up ****, as you’ve said.

I’m not sure it can be as funny as the real thing. Have you seen the “Michael Owen: Brand Values” page?
Holy ****, how ridiculous is that?? 😯
Whumpie(Quote)
For those who can’t be bothered to look, it includes “resilient”, “fit and healthy”, “devoted”, “committed”, “sincere”, “enthusiastic”, and…
“charismatic”.
Holy. Fucking. ****. 😯 😆

Well at least we now know where the other 2 stripes have gone! 😛

Does just look like a cheap training top, wonder how much they want for it, no way would I pay more than about £15 for that! Bet Ashley wants about £45. 😆
I liked the new home strip though.

yeah, it’ll be 45 or 50. I want an orange away!

One of, if not the biggest c*nt in football. Making him captain was a ridiculous idea to begin with, but he’s really shown how snide he can be after he got what he deserved at SJP, absolute bellend that bloke

re. Owen
Im amazed they’ve offered him another year. Out of him, Giggs and Scholes I think the wrong one has just retired!
I think CLF might have been the start of the end for Fergie. 🙂
DJG(Quote)
He did try in some games when he wasn’t injured but…. we shouldn’t have signed him! and shouldn’t have made him captain! I blame the club as much as him.
DJG(Quote)
Owen peak as a footballer at 18. Only at United due to his interest in the horse’s.
Johno Toon(Quote)
DJG-Aye, freddy was an absolute muppet to go in for him, and on those wages, ridiculous. Making him captain was a joke. Also re the brochure-page 18 and 26, who the **** does Owen think he is? Shearer?

said before what will the players he played with think,hes saying they were *****,hope they stick one on him,bloody dwarf

“Indeed his period under Kevin Keegan in 2008 was one of his happiest and most productive spells in football and he was within days of signing a contract which would have kept him at St James Park for the rest of his career when keegan left the club abruptly ”
I suppose Keegan leaving did do us a favour then

Whumpie the last line in that article is as good as any I’ve read in The Daily Mash:
“Owen is said to be disappointed by Capello’s response, a reaction which has unfortunately torn his left anterior disappointment cartilage”

whumpie at 12. That isn’t really true is it?
I really can’t believe I used to actually like Owen and think he was the heir apparent…

Jobey07@13….I bet Owen regrets creating this brochure…..
But there again….the bloke has absolutely no scruples…money is money at the end of the day…..
Munich Mag(Quote)
MDS: Sadly, yes. There is apparently no limit to the quantity or quality of utter batshit that PR people can produce.
Go to the link on post 13 and look at page 12 of the brochure.
Oh, and it includes “good looking” too. So is Pippa Middleton’s ****, and at least that made it 100 paces without breaking anything. Better movement too. Not much width, but perfect balance and excellent in support. Made one want to get into the box…
(Sorry)
Whumpie(Quote)
That brochure is pure comedy. How deluded and full of himself is that man.
agreed whumpie- also impressed by Pippa’s…umm… fitness.

toonsy: ‘I’ve corrected his spelling for him, free of charge … ‘
Pedant. Just think of all that time and energy he puts into updating his twitter account and you pick on something as inconsequential as his spelling! Shame on you, toonsy 😆
