Glad to see you're seeing the lighter side Mike , but to taunt me with your 101 days off is just cruel.
And I'll have a large shake with that please

We're both in the same boat! I was born 400 yds from St James's, supported them since 1968, been going since 01 May 1970, have shares in the Club and a Season Ticket, yet my Pals in Newcastle still say the same to me, as I don't have a broad Geordie accent!

This was clearly the barcodes cup final, its the most animated you've been all season , apart from the Souness out campaign
It looks like Sunderland must have knackered themselves out on Friday
Well done Charles, another goal for the dream team, but another of these players who performs when its warm but disappears for the winter...

I generally think that Alan Shearer has been the best striker in the Premiership.
Thierry Henry is a phenomenal player and has a wonderful goalscoring record with Arsenal but Shearer's longevity just swings it for him.
Newcastle striker Alan Shearer
Shearer celebrates his goal at Sunderland in what may be his playing finale
He has been around virtually since the Premiership started. Not only has he put in performance after performance and scored goal after goal but he was everything you would want in a centre-forward.
Goalscoring is a very selfish occupation and, not only did he do that, but he was also a great team player.
Wherever he went, whether it was Southampton, Blackburn or Newcastle, he really appreciated what teamwork and team spirit was about.
He was at the forefront of that philosophy which is great for everybody because, as I say, he was in a very selfish position.
His record is absolutely phenomenal both for the clubs he played at and for England. He was a great striker for England.
He just did and had everything. He was strong, great in the air, had great touch and technique and, when he was in his prime, he had pace.
He was very difficult to play against and was very much a team man and player.
He could have gone to Man Utd but he chose Newcastle - I am sure he does not regret that in any way, shape or form
You could not ask for anymore from a centre-forward. Everywhere he went he was the first one on the teamsheet.
He had that competitive side as well where he wanted to win everything he played in and every great player has that quality.
I think he has been a real credit to the game of football.
The thing about his injuries is that some players do not come back from the kind he has suffered.
But he had that type of commitment and willingness to win to come back and still play a prominent part at Newcastle.
He is a legend for the club. He could have gone to Manchester United but chose Newcastle. I am sure he does not regret that in any way, shape or form.
And, it is fitting that in his last season that he broke the record of Jackie Milburn who is also a legend for Newcastle.
Newcastle striker Alan Shearer
Shearer cuts a forlorn figure after getting injured at Sunderland
The one down side of his career is that he did not win a lot in the game. He won a championship at Blackburn and got to a couple of FA Cup finals with Newcastle but when you speak to him he is really honest and realistic about having no regrets.
Why should he have any regrets? He is one of the greatest strikers of all time.
He loved Newcastle and playing for them and to score as many goals as he did in such a prolific career was probably fitting for him.
It is a harsh way to go out if the game against Sunderland is the end for him but, like he said, to score a goal against his local rivals in his final game was a great finale if that proves to be the end.
As far as his England career went, I think he looked at it and thought he was going to find it really difficult to play at his best for Newcastle and England - the one that obviously had to go was England.
By not playing for England after Euro 2000 it enabled him to play for Newcastle a lot longer than he would have done. Not only the playing but the travelling was taking its toll and I think he got out at the right time.
I played against him a couple of times when he was at Southampton and you could see at that tender age that he was going to be a great player.
You can never tell how they are going to develop but he was a handful for every defender he played against and I wouldn't have been any exception.
You look back at his attributes and what he gave to the game and it was a totally glittering career.

Fair play to him he does deserve some sort of life after serving the game at the top level for so long, it only seems like yesterday he was making his debut for Soton and bagging a hatrick.

I dred to think what the Geordies would be like if they had a real footballing hero to worship... one who maybe scored vital goals on the way to them winning the Premiership or an 80th minute winner in a cup final................
