Owen is a geordie
After months or in fact weeks of hanging on the hope of signing Owen, we have finally achieved what was first thought as a unrealistic target. Similar to the Rooney bid we had last season.
From Nufc.com --
Amazing scenes at St. James' Park today as Michael Owen became a Newcastle player for the next four years and signed his contract that contains no get-out clauses.
Owen said all the right things as a very negative press conference was handled well by our smiling new no.10 with Freddy Shepherd having to intervene at one point when an ITV reporter pushed Owen on whether he would stay more than a year.
Inside the stadium a packed Sir John Hall stand waited for the striker to appear in a black and white shirt although early arrivals had a brief glimpse just after 11am.
He duly arrived on the pitch clad in the home kit just before 1.00pm and in front of what must have been something like 15,000 fans, he was interviewed on a hastily constructed platform.
When i first got the news, i was so over the moon. Dreams turned to reality......
