Why is Rob Lee remembered as a Premier League great from Kevin Keegan’s Newcastle?
I've been thinking about fish happiness. What about it? That how you catch so well. Even though we have the same gear and the same promises, and the boat
goes
in the same water, just like these fish would hook me, not the other way around. How do they know who's in the other hand? Am I so obvious? Don't think
too much. Easier said than done. Motonet. No player seems to be finishing the season stronger than Robert
Lee.
Rob
Lee is a gem.
The final episode of the series, gentlemen.
Enjoyed it again, have you? Yes. Shall we do another? As always. Shall we do another? Yes.
Yeah, we'll do another.
Please.
Good news is, we've only got a three-week break until the next series kicks off. It's better, isn't it? It's exciting, isn't it? It is. Rob Lee. Absolute
Premier League great for
me. Icon for me of that era.
Yes, us growing up.
Yeah. That Newcastle team. Liverpool-Newcastle games. That Newcastle team. Kevin Keegan. Is that the most from one
particular team that we've had on? That Newcastle-Keegan? I don't know if it is,
but I think it's the most memorable.
Yeah, I bet it's not far off, by the way. I bet we've had seven, eight.
Yeah.
Yeah.
And another first name, last name, as you pointed out earlier.
Rob Lee. It hasn't been intentional, but this series, can you name any?
Charlie Nicholas. Mm-hmm. Charlie Adam. Graham Scott. That's just this series. That's
just this
series. That's mad,
isn't
it? Yeah. But before we get him in, we've got to say a massive thank you to Batano, who sponsored this entire series. And there's a whisper. on the next series as
well. Oh,
excellent. Because they've been unbelievable
for us. They have.
It was during the World Cup and everything. There's a link in the description if you want to get yourself involved. The best bookies around, in my opinion.
We will be back. in three weeks short and sharp
if you're missing us though Patreon there's a link for that in the description
as well
there's I don't know how many 300 episodes that you can listen to the back catalogue
if it weren't for Patreon you wouldn't be getting Rob Lee for free no there you go exactly that's how important and heroic you
are
no Patreon no Rob Lee no Graham Scott and others with the same name Charlie Adam and Friday Club still going on on Spotify We never stop fucking grafting, do we? No, never.
Mine has had it easy.
Shall we get him in?
Yeah, let's get him in.
We might have ain't done here, Rob, but is it true that a Newcastle fan made you sign their Mrs Dildo that she had nicknamed Nobly? I wish that was true, Rob. It's a beauty.
I love
it. Get Nobby out. Seven on it. That's a good start.
I don't know where we go from here. God, I wish that was
true.
You got a few tips earlier, didn't you, John? Yes. I've been told to ask, in no particular order, Boots and Ray Wilkins and limousine with Warren Barton.
Oh, my God, yeah, yeah. Have you had Warren on yet? No. Yeah, don't mention it yet. That
would be a bit of a deflect,
that. We can't mention it yet. Ray Wilkins' one was... People ask me who was the best player I ever played against, and I played against some fantastic players, but Ray Wilkins was the... We played QPR at home and I just started playing for England. We've been playing about a year, I think. Doing pretty well for England, doing well in the Premier League. Just signed a Diodora contract for new boots. So I took, would you believe, John Barnes' Diodora contract off of him. So he says, signed for Diodora. And I always used to wear black and white pumas, always. And I had these Diodoras of like a yellow stripe on them sort of thing. And I remember dancing around the change rooms and Keegan's going, and I said, look at me boots gaffer.
He said, yeah, look good. He said, make sure you play well. And I went, no. Playing against Ray Wilkins. I said, he's 50 if he's a day, honestly. I said, I'll be fine today. Guy on the pitch, honestly, I could not get near him. He put Les through twice. They were 2-0 up, half-time, and I'm having a stink. I'm trying to kick him. I can't get near him. Well, yeah, you know, when I think he's going to have one touch, he has two. When I think he's going to have two, he has one.
