Harry Spewell

Post by Bennyfishel »

Aren't you guys glad you got rid of Spewell?..we have him back in Australia because no one else will have a bar of him,and he is back in his old ways of saying he is injured if he decides he doesn't want to play in any particular game,he did this many times at Elland Road and I once read it where he hit and missed so many time whilst at Anfield that in the end it cost Liverpool around half a million pounds per game whilst he was there,and the same again I believe when he was at Galarasara(spelling). I reckon he is the biggest bludger I have ever known in sport and personally I wouldn't pay him out in washers...THE BEST MOVE LEEDS UNITED EVER MADE IN THE CLUBS HISTORY,was when they got rid of him.

what is the obsession in still going on about Harry Kewell ?????? Get over it , if the clubs in the A-League still want to pay him his wages while be injury prone that's the club fault not Harry's . His 35 and is finishing of his career .
Love him or hate him , in his prime he was 1 of the best Premier League players .

The beginning of the end for us when he left (not because he left, just 'when' I think), he wasn't a mallingerer when he was a Leeds player, though he was a prat :mrgreen:

Because he was (and still is) the biggest bludger in any sport I have ever known,....as far as I'm concerned his career finshed when he left Liverpool. Injury prone my arse,he suffers from a bad dose of "IDLEITUS".SPEWELL AND HARD WORK ARE BITTER ENEMIES.

So you reckon he hasn't been injured much the last couple of years ? you haven't followed him closely then... explain how he is a bludger ? Do you know for a fact that he doesn't show up to trainings or what is your definition of a bludger ? cause you sure don't make sense in your assessment of him , have you medically assessed him to say there is nothing wrong with him ! he's just bludging .
He was the driving force in Melbourne Victory campaign 2 seasons ago before his Mother in Law fell ill and left his final year contract in Australia to follow his family.
You can be upset for the way he left Leeds to Galatasaray from a fans point of view , but he sure doesn't need to give you an explanation as to why he has done things the way he has (after all it's his Career).
The same with other players you might be fond with that has represented Leeds e.g Beckford , Becchio , Snodgrass that have moved on , or you think Van Persie has to explain to Arsenal fans why he left the Gunners for Scum ?, you think they need to explain to you why they have done X,Y,Z ? of course not ... Football is a Business and until you realise that you are going to continue to be a hater , Loyalty barely exists .
Good luck to Harry I know how hard he has worked as a kid to get to where he got , your not always going to please everyone.

Isn't it about time we dropped this?

For good or evil, Kewell is part of our distant past now, there is no more point in rehashing arguments about a player who left us 10 years ago than there is about detailed discussions on the relative merits of David Healy and Robbie Blake, both more recent but also irrelevant players.

Ignorant sh1t that he is. Were it not for his wife he would have totally blanked my lad many years ago. That was before his departure and it gave a strange stench about him then.

As to his present situation, I don't give a toss tbh.

That is what I reckon Harry Kewell is in our past let's leave him there.

Maybe Spewell doesn't want to play because his team (Melbourne Heart) coached by John Aloisi has played 16 games this season and have still to win their first match.
