Sonny Nickle smashed a player's Jaw but I bet you still shouted for him, cant have it both ways. As I said He wont be the only one. You ask any player and they will tell you he is a tough Lad. Barrie Mcdermott for One says in his book that he is.

Carney basically asked him the same questions over and over again.

Carney: So how did you feel after you caught?
Newton: Well i let my mum down, i let my dad down, i let my wife down, i let my club down and i regret it.
Carney: How did you feel after you got the letter through your door from the drugs agency?
Newton: Well i let my mum down, i let my dad down, i let my wife down, i let my club down and i regret it.

Thats a rough idea of how the interview went, same questions over and over again, with the same response from Newton. Boring.

I wanted him to ask about when he took Long out and other incidents through-out his career but it was basically the same thing over and over again.

That's a little OTT!

You'll have to watch the mighty tony stark don't give you a warning for trying to get around swearing by using **.

After all this is a family site and young kids read it.

I hope my little lad don't ask me what Sh*thouses means!!!!

In his prelude to the interview Brian Carney said that he expected that many people would not be happy about about the interview with Terry Newton, and so it seems.

I quite enjoyed it, but I watched it as I did Longs, and that's probably the difference between you and I.
I would have liked Carney to dig into the Long incident at the JJB, but it was all about the drugs problem.

The programme was not about about making Newton a hero, it was about a man admitting the mistakes he has made. If you can't be bothered watching it then I don't know how you can comment.

His book is a very good read, you should give it a go although I suspect with your red vee specs that won't happen.

JLM23, you made some excellent points.

Me and my dad watched it as Rugby League fans, and before it came on we said this could be an interesting watch, expecting him to go over Newtons career, as well as obviously the drugs problem but they didn't. It was the same questions over and over again about the drugs, with more or less the exact same answers from Newton. It got pretty boring to be honest.

Fielden is on next week, that could also be interesting if they go into the Willie Mason incident.

From a mod too, will [uyou[/u be getting a warning for this swear filter dodge?

Yep, the mighty tony stark will be on his case.

Tony is a true rlfans hero.

I have requested to be notified when the warning has been issued. Won't count on it like.

No chance any warning will be given from one cod to another.

Yes it was a bit repetitive.
Get hold of a copy of Newtons book, some of the questions that you want answered are covered in there, the Long incident, Barry Mcdermott, Ricky Bibey and Millward.

What's about bibey?

Read it you tight sod. (Is sod a swear word on here

)

It was an incident with the then coach Stuart Raper after the "boys" had gone out for a beer.

Toilets?

That's ok then, as long as other players do the same!

Where Have I said it's okay? Just said other players will be caught. I'm pretty convinced if it had been a Saints player who had been caught and not Newton a lot of Saints Fans on here would be saying the exact same.

Yea, but, this is Die Die Terry!

Bloody hell Rogues - are you on 10% commision for each book sold?

I didn't buy it , I borrowed it.

I could tell you what he did at the Leigh Presentation evening a couple of weeks ago in Haydock if you want!

Mr Millwars et al were not very happy!

I think the point here that some are trying to make is that for Terry Newton to be called a Super League Superman is like tyring to call Ben Johnson an Olympic God.

I won't pay money to read Newton's book, I'd like to borrow it though.



I know of the Bibey/Raper story though and I've seen him get up to all sorts on nights out (Bibey). He dragged someone out of the queue of a Wigan club once and gave him the 'People's Elbow'

indeed - if SKY want to broadcast drivel like this then it is entirely up to them. However, they should do it as a separate feature, or a separate programme.

It is an insult to the players who have previously been featured who are true "supermen of super league" to be compared to this cheating waster.

Er, what is?


Well, Mr Producer, I really don't care what the aim of the programme was. I didn't watch it on principle. I've watched all the others as I generally enjoy hearing the stories. But I refuse to add to the viewing figures for a programme which is giving exposure of any kind to a cheat.


Nothing to do with my red vee specs. I won't buy his book for the same reason I didn't watch the programme on Sky.

Let's hear it then.......
