If people don't like my style, then I can't do anything about that. I have been like that since I first entered into the game and it hasn't done me bad in the past, so I am not going to change now.

People are very proud of Newcastle, very proud to come from here. This is a working class City and they just want to enjoy themselves and live life to the full. They work all week, pick their wages up at the end of the week and they spend it over a weekend by having a good time and watching the football. That's our life.

The FA Cup means a lot. There is a real passion here for the competition which you don't get elsewhere. It's a love affair. It's part and parcel of living up here. People might think I'm daft, but I'm not wrong I'd rather win the Cup than the League.

You have to go out onto the pitch feeling good about yourself. That can give you that extra 30 per cent.

I always dreamed about scoring at St. James' Park. I fancied my chances and the ball flew into the net. I was ecstatic.

I've got two girls. I like to play golf. Apart from that there's not a lot goes on in my life. So I am boring, aren't I?
Alan Shearer
Image
When I was a young boy I wanted to play for Newcastle United, I wanted to wear the number nine shirt and I wanted to score goals at St James' Park. I've lived my dream and I realise how lucky I've been to have done that.
Alan Shearer

I like the tag of being the world's most expensive player. It's an honour and a privilege.

At times they don't like you to kick them and they feel you're not allowed to kick them.

One accusation you can't throw at me is that I've always done my best.
Alan Shearer

I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well.

First is first. That's the way I was brought up. Second or third are nowhere.
