Charles N'Zogbia has been a pain in the arse to EVERY manager he has played under.
I am no fan of Joe Kinnear ... never have been ... but I feel for him when it comes to dealing with the Frenchman.
'Insomnia' has been looking for a move away from St James' Park for years, and he says Kinnear has disrespected him in recent weeks and feels he no longer enjoys a working relationship with the Magpies boss.
N'Zogba Problem Solved - Don't Pay His Wages!
N'Zogbia: "First of all I wish to apologise to the fans for wanting to leave the club.
"However, having been insulted by Joe Kinnear, I will never play for him again while he remains Newcastle manager.
"The club are aware that there are offers on the table for me and they should accept one of them."
We face the Mackems on Sunday and, with three quarters of the team on the injury list, this is the last thing Kinnear ... or the fans ... want to hear.
50,000 Toon season-ticket holders would DIE to wear the black and white shirt, especially against the Mackems, and here we have a player with no passion, no love for the club ... just a money-grabbing garlic-eating wimp who couldn't give a toss!
Stop his wages, and let's hope he never plays for Newcastle again.
