Lil Mickey's Contract

Quotes from Michael Owen recently.....

“My situation has not changed we had a few meetings early in the season and it was going fine.
“Then the manager (Kevin Keegan) and a few people on the board left, one who I was negotiating with.
“Talks have not picked up since then.
“Before it gets twisted, I’d like to say that’s not Newcastle snubbing me or anything else.
“They have bigger fish to fry then sorting out contracts.
“They haven’t got round to talking because there has been so much turmoil.
“They have more important things to sort out.
“However, when Joe Kinnear got the job until the end of the season he said he’d talk to people out of contract.
“There are no snubs or anything about me wanting to leave.
“The plain and simple fact is there has been a lot of turmoil at the club and things have been shuffled to the back of the queue.”

Either Cashley wants rid of Mikey or he hasn't got a clue how to run a football club - probably both!

I don't think he cares anymore.
All that matters is we stay up. And that he sells.

Think you're right there. Pity really, as he's the only player who we know will score consistently.....
