Alan Shearer Quotations | Page 2

It's been far too long that this club has been without silverware, but we've got a great chance to change that,

It was a blatant dive. There was absolutely no contact and I thought that at the time.

They weren't frightened to put a tackle in and we had to be committed and get stuck in.

I'm not selling the club to him any more. I don't think I have to - the tough part was getting him here. We all said that, if we were to get him here, he would take to the football club, the area and the people. I think he's done that. The people have certainly taken to him - not only on the football pitch, but off it as well. They've made him feel very welcome and he's grateful for that. He likes the area, which I think is a big plus.

I'm sure the public will be behind us. We all realize it's going to be a tough fight. We've got to roll our sleeves up and get three points tomorrow. We've got 26 points, we've got to have 29 by the time Saturday night comes along. Once we get on the pitch it's up to us.

Hopefully now, with the objective achieved, the players will relax a bit and you might see more style and flair.
