More tabloid rubbish

Last updated : 20 October 2003 By Martyn Elliott

The Sun claimed: “Nolberto Solano has rocked Newcastle by storming out of the club.”

Of course that would explain why Solano turned up for work on Monday morning and took a full part in training as the team prepared for Tuesday’s game at Fulham.

If Nobby was annoyed at being left out at Middlesbrough on Saturday, so what? Surely we want players who are desperate to be playing for us.


Maybe he shouldn’t have been too surprised by his omission though, as his below par performance in Breda followed some excellent displays from Kieron Dyer on the right of midfield.

The Sun also attempts to stir up the old Bellamy club versus country row again, by printing some nonsense about a falling out with the club’s medical staff.

Frankly, after a number of the stories from ‘club insiders’ that have appeared in the tabloids in recent weeks have proved to be entirely untrue I fail to see why anyone would believe anything they read in those papers.
