As excuses go...

...this takes some beating from the Wycombe manager. Lose 8-3, blame the fifth goal and then moan about the blatant penalty!

 

"The first half was no fluke. Everything we did was quality. And that fifth goal was not deserved.

 

"The referee gave them a penalty but he didn't book my player or send him off. Don't tell me that goal didn't matter. It was the goal that finished our team.

 

"It was a rubbish own goal and a deflected shot for the equaliser. They got the breaks. The scoreline was unjust in the end."

Sounds like it's been lifted straight out of the Chris Kinnear handbook <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

What about Graham Souness... Blaming their training ground surface for the amount I think hamstring troubles newcastle have had this year...

 

WTF...? <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Billy McEwan's said similar things about York's training ground.

Newcastle's problem is simple, crap Manager, crap Chairman, never should a Club like Newcastle be allowed to carry on like this, i met him once and what a person, Bobby Robson should still be in charge, what a person really the BEST.

Every time I hear what a hard uncompromising player Souness was I always think of the little boy who ran away home because the legendary Bill Nicholson had upset him as a youngster at Spurs.
