I think that Andy Townsend is better than both in his summing up but must admit I havent heard Michael Owen
happypig
Staring at the rude boys
I'll see your Owen & Townsend and raise you Robbie Savage
Redfearn is clearly biased towards Leeds players he feels connected to, but to suggest he doesn't 'know football' is risible. He a brilliant coach (not manager) who brought through a succession of excellent young players at Leeds, whilst the head of their academy.
True, and he had a rough deal from them despite which he remains totally Leedscentric which means no-one exists and nothing happens outside the city boundaries. Hence his stupidity.

You do you know that C5 can't afford real comedians
Or football pundits. I mean, who else would employ the likes of Chris Iwelumo, Clinton Morrison, and Michael Gray? (Adam Virgo apart of course, but then I am biased).
Jansson and Bartley the best central defensive partnership in the Championship . . . dear oh dear oh dear.

The two Alan's, Shearer, and Hanson (now retired), must come close.

Draft them into our squad, and I reckon they'll be fifth and sixth choice CBs.

If Garth Crooks is still on the BBC he should be enough to close this debate.
A knobber of the highest order.
pasty
A different kind of pasty
Can't wait to hear Shearer talking about us next season, IF we go up of course. The man talks utter shite most of the time.

On the subject of Leeds United generally - did anyone notice how, in the wake of their slightly fortunate 2-0 win over us, they were going to hunt us down, put pressure on us etc? Their fans and former players were all saying so. Yet somehow they don't even seem to have put any pressure on their humble Yorkshire neighbours Huddersfield, and are below Reading in the table. What can possibly have gone wrong.

The problem with players and managers who become pundits is that they're lazy and think that simply having played at a reasonable level gives their utterances the status of oracular pronouncements. Doing any sort of basic research would seldom occur to them. Examples abound, but my two favourites are Garth Crooks (I know, easy target), who was asked to find out about Avram Grant when he became Chelsea manager, and reported that he got on well with Roman Abramovich because he speaks Russian. That was simply made up - he doesn't. And then there was Shearer's verdict on Hatem Ben Arfa: 'No-one knows a great deal about him.' Actually, Alan, if you're being paid a considerable amount by the BBC, then it would be reasonable to expect YOU to get to know a great deal about him and tell us.
