It was amusing when the news broke ..but hey..at least we didn't make it up.Perhaps our discussing it here helped make it happen.. I liked shearers comment on the news that he was famous for being a footballer and now that was behind him and management was what he wanted to be known for now.. if I could find a quote I would insert that .. does anyone think it would be good here or on the newcastle page a section on these eight games..perhaps the team he chooses and the result and so on..what do you think?and a comment about the officials waiving the fact that shearer hasn't even started his pro badge ..

Isn't he still offically newcastle manager or are thay managerless? Beacuse hes working out a new contract. (this is as of June 11 2009)
== Playing career statistics. ==

We've been seeing the playing career stats changed by varied IPs recently, and they often stay wrong for a while - the following is '''what they always should be''' - it's league and cup goals only. Most often, the Newcastle goals field is changed to 206, which is his total in all competitions. Sources: [http://web.archive.org/web/20080206025703/http://www.nufc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Profiles/0,,10278~5962,00.html NUFC.co.uk], [http://www.soccerbase.com/players_details.sd?playerid=7218 soccerbase] and [http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/shared/bsp/hi/football/statistics/players/s/shearer_1350.stm BBC stats].

If it's league and cup goals only, why have you only put up league goals for his time at Newcastle? He has has scored 148 newcastle league goals in 303 league games. He also scored 26 FA cup goals in 36 FA cup games.

So his actual totals are 169 goals in 339 games? <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/193.128.223.67|193.128.223.67]] ([[User talk:193.128.223.67|talk]]) 15:29, 7 August 2009 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Regarding this edit... ( expand final day situation) ==

This edit [[http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Alan_Shearer&diff=prev&oldid=292212504]]. In my opinion the article is about Alan Shearer and the expanding of these facts is not relevant to his biography, they would be more relevant to the corresponding teams pages.

== more honest reflection of alans style of play. ==

Hi Toon.
I notice you have removed one of my insertions here.[[http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Alan_Shearer&diff=292136825&oldid=292061663]]. As I remember it was discussed in the talk and I inserted it after some small degree of consensus in the discussion.Here is the original edit from way back on the 7th of March, since when my edit has been stable and unchallenged.[[http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Alan_Shearer&diff=275694732&oldid=275694118]]
and here is the corresponding story that goes with the insertion, for some reason it wasn't inserted ( I don't think ) Have a look and see what you think. [[http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/n/newcastle_united/4400600.stm]] what you have left now just says he was well known for his style of play but leaves me asking ...well what was his style of play? ([[User:Off2riorob|Off2riorob]] ([[User talk:Off2riorob|talk]]) 15:32, 25 May 2009 (UTC))

:Yeah, I remember the discussion we had, but I remember that we didn't reach consensus to include "aggressive and old fashioned". For some reason I didn't pick up on it being inserted until yesterday. I agree we need to say something which describes his style of play, but to me "aggressive and old fashioned" has a negative pov on it, and it's not supported by the sources in the body of the article, which actually describe him as 'classic' Centre Forward (subtle difference from "old fashioned"). Perhaps "physical style of play" would suffice, what do you think? – <span style="font-family:Bradley Hand ITC; font-size:15px;">'''[[User:Toon05|Toon]][[User talk:Toon05|<span style="color:blue"><sup>(talk)</sup></span>]]'''</span> 15:40, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

:: I could go with something like that... aggressive and old fashioned is a bit neg pov.. what about... a strong centre forward with a classic style of play.? ([[User:Off2riorob|Off2riorob]] ([[User talk:Off2riorob|talk]]) 16:10, 25 May 2009 (UTC))
:::Yeah, that sounds good to me. – <span style="font-family:Bradley Hand ITC; font-size:15px;">'''[[User:Toon05|Toon]][[User talk:Toon05|<span style="color:blue"><sup>(talk)</sup></span>]]'''</span> 16:16, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

== Lead ==

The lead should mention something about his managerial career shouldn't it? Or do we have to wait until he does something notable? [[User:Spiderone|Spiderone]] ([[User talk:Spiderone|talk]]) 08:21, 3 July 2009 (UTC)
:Done. [[User:MickMacNee|MickMacNee]] ([[User talk:MickMacNee|talk]]) 10:32, 3 July 2009 (UTC)

== Recent addition ==

User sir stanley seems to have added some expansion, it looked uncited to me, I don't know enough about shearer to say if it is correct or if it is actually covered by any citations here, looked at stanleys edits he seems to like adding content but is not so bothered about citations, could someone a bit more knowledgeable have a look, I left stanley a note but as yet have got no reply.

== What is the point of this paragraph? ==

"Blackburn have been a thin shadow of their former selves since Shearer's departure. In four seasons, his 112 league goals helped them finish fourth, second, first and seventh in the Premier League. In the 14 years since then, the closest they have come to matching that fine form has been two sixth placed finishes (although they have lifted another major trophy in the shape of the 2002 Football League Cup) and they even spent two years outside the top flight following relegation. All through his remaining career at Newcastle, he was often regarded by fans and journalists as the former player that Blackburn Rovers most needed back in their side."

Just seems to be having a go at Blackburn. Could just as easily have something similar below the Newcastle part of his career <span style="font-size: smaller;" class="autosigned">—Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/194.75.129.200|194.75.129.200]] ([[User talk:194.75.129.200|talk]]) 14:00, 25 August 2010 (UTC)</span><!-- Template:UnsignedIP --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

== Daily Mail story ==

In today's ''[[Daily Mail]]'', [[Gabby Logan]] denies that she has had an affair with [[Alan Shearer]], or that this is the subject of a UK [[Injunction#UK_superinjunctions|super-injunction]].[http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1384058/Gabby-Logans-fury-false-claims-affair-Alan-Shearer-got-injunction-hide-it.html?ito=feeds-newsxml] Perhaps we can all move on now.--'''''[[User:ianmacm|<span style="background:#88b;color:#cff;font-variant:small-caps">♦Ian<span style="background:#99c">Ma<span style="background:#aad">c</span></span>M♦</span>]] <sup>[[User_talk:ianmacm|(talk to me)]]</sup>''''' 10:59, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

== Goals to Game Ratio ==

In the first section it mentions his goals to game ratio as 0.667 yet the numbers (whether you include all goals or just regular season) are around 0.51. Where did the 0.667 come from? [[User:Boston2austin|Boston2austin]] ([[User talk:Boston2austin|talk]]) 16:03, 25 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi,
I am contacting you to ask if I can make a modification to your page. With the introduction of the new Premier League Hall of Fame. I believe a valid inclusion to Alan's profile would be for him to have an Honours section below his "Team Managed Section" in his profile which would include his induction in the Hall of Fame, further attributing to his greatness as a Footballer. As a case study in American Sports, the same formula is used on different athletes profiles on their designated Wikipedia Pages if indeed they are selected as Hall of Famers.

Hi, I am contacting you to ask if I can make a modification to your page. With the introduction of the new Premier League Hall of Fame. I believe a valid inclusion to Alan's profile would be for him to have an Honours section below his "Team Managed Section" in his profile which would include his induction in the Hall of Fame, further attributing to his greatness as a Footballer. As a case study in American Sports, the same formula is used on different athletes profiles on their designated Wikipedia Pages if indeed they are selected as Hall of Famers.
