News of Ex Players

Anyone seen the Martin Keown interview on the Peter Crouch podcast?



At 4:30, said, "Probably shouldn't have gone to Everton"

But the more interesting stuff, from 6:30 onward, said "there were a group of players who weren't really accepting the next group in"

Talked about a physical fight he had with Sheedy, and just after 11:00, said "Ratcliffe didn't welcome me to the club. Said he would "hang up his boots if I ever got in front of him". Ratters called him Bob (Brain of Britain) as a pisstake, followed by, "he did everything he could to undermine me". Then "years later when I was at Arsenal I helped players take my place, we're all their for the team". Mentioned that the old players at Arsenal did the opposite with new players, in that "it's our job to help you do better".

Gobsmacked at Ratters tbh.

Also, when you conceded you "learned not to look at Nev when it went in the back of the net as it was your [Poor language removed] fault". Lol.

Also that he drove Kendall home after every away match and they stopped in the pub, that he drank too much, but he kept this discreet as wanted to protect Kendall from the papers.
 

Apologies, the first Keown quote in the vid is at 4:10

Full of praise for Kendall, but not for any of the older players, bar Nev and Dave Watson.

Really does seem to be a poor team environment without Kendall. The Ratters one though, previously always thought he came across well.

Pat Nevin went on Joe Cole’s podcast and was saying a lot of the same things. Didn’t mentioned Ratcliffe specifically though

There's always been a few quotes from the league winners about them not welcoming the new blood because they weren't good enough in their opinion, our old pal Sharpy being a prime example.

Do wonder how much part of our decline their unprofessional attitude played.

Think Sharp also mentioned the bigger wages the new players were coming in on compared to those who had helped the team win the league.
 
See Dele's got a new job already...
