So anyway, then that was in the January, and then in the June, I went on pre-season tour to Chicago, wasn't it?
You probably weren't there further than three, Scores never left anywhere more than three hours away.
So literally, Newcastle come in, and at the time, Sir Bobby was a god of football, I really loved him.
They had Shearer there, Clive at there, Shea Gibbon there, Jonathan Woodgate, Kieran Dyer, Jermaine Trier, a really good team.
And they were playing in the Champions League.
And so what you're getting at, your question there, and also I just had my first child, Jersey was born, and it was only really two and a half hours away from home.
So I'm thinking, I'm away three nights a week with football, with European games, and that's to be a bit not too selfish with the family as well.
So that was a big decision as to why I went as well.
Obviously, Newcastle was a brilliant attraction for me with the fan base.
But it was the fact that it was only two and a half hours away from Manchester as well.
So for me, it did...
It was a little bit of both, I wanted to be still playing football at a really high level, but I also wanted to be alright with the family.
And me and Scorsi are homeboys, I've lived in Manchester all my life, from the day I was born till probably the day I die, so that part of it for me was big as well.
Yeah, you can't.
You've got to get them on the boat.
Come on, stop being so English.
You can't just take your pit bull on a fucking...
You have to have all the rabies jabs and all the jabs, more injections and stuff like that.
You have to take a picture of the dog, though.
Shut up on your knee.
