Gabby Agbonlahor - Why is it that nobody has asked him this massive obvious question? nufc
His specialist subject, trying to use Newcastle United to get attentionNo barrel too deep to be scraped for the lamest of Talksport pundits, which is an achievement in itself, considering the competition he has there at wind-up merchant radio.
Jamie O’Hara taking about ‘huge’ club Newcastle United and in reply, Gabby Agbonhalor declaring ‘When you say huge football club, in what way?…I wouldn’t call them a big club.’Since his comments this weekend, I have to ask, why is it that nobody has asked Gabby Agbonlahor this massive obvious question?Gabby Agbonlahor played almost his entire career at Aston Villa, turning out in both the Premier League and Championship.
As well as the brief spells in the Championship with the other two clubs, Gabby Agbonlahor was playing for Aston Villa between 2005 and 2018. In that time, Villa never won a trophy, never finished in the top five of the Premier League, never played in the Champions League. The same when it comes to the profile of the two clubs, I don’t think many people think much, if anything, about Aston Villa, whereas everybody has an opinion, good or bad, about Newcastle United. Indeed, my personal is that when talking about profile of clubs in terms of neutral fans talking about them, I honestly think only Man Utd and Liverpool are ranked higher than Newcastle United.
What of course makes this all the more notable is that these Newcastle United highlights in the Premier League era, all happened in the 14 PL seasons before the dark cloud of Mike Ashley descended. Indeed, of the 13 PL seasons pre-Ashley, nine of them saw Newcastle playing in Europe . Tottenham have only won the League Cup in the entire Premier League era but regular top four finishes have apparently entitled them to ‘big’ club status for most people’s eyes.
