Toon Legend Insists Owen Will Walk Out On Newcastle!
Last updated : 16 December 2008 By Footy Mad - Editor
Ashley said this week "I have no regrets at buying Newcastle United" ... but almost 50,000 Toon fans who visit St James' Park every home game seem to have massive regrets that the former Spurs fan chose Newcastle as his "new team"!
Les Ferdinand (talking to Setanta Sports): "There is a lot of talk about Michael Owen at the moment and I think like most people that he will go.
"I would love him to stay at Newcastle, but Michael Owen has got to think about Michael Owen and his career and Newcastle do not look in great shape from the top down at the moment.
"They are starting to get some results which I am pleased to see, but the structure does not look quite right at Newcastle. There is a lot of turmoil at the club at the moment."
Owen has only made 51 appearances in three and a half years at St James' Park, while Sir Les made 81 in almost HALF that time (before Freddy Shepherd sold him to Spurs).
