Michael Owen returned to the Anfield dressing room as a UK and Ireland XI took on an International XI in a Hillsborough charity match—and he immediately found himself being mocked for his injury-prone status.
In his time at Newcastle, if you include wages (£108,000 per week), transfer fee and add-ons ... every goal Owen scored for Newcastle United cost the club £1.3m!
The striker retired at the end of last season from professional football, but clearly, the old jokes haven't.
Someone put a set of crutches next to Owen's strip in the dressing room.
