What post war record does Alan Shearer hold (not to do with goals or scoring)

[Polly1958]

My son thinks the answer is that he was the first multi million pound player (15 million pounds)?

[wallacia]

my guess is,the only ex newcastle player to manage the club and get relegated.???

[bobthebandit]

Only player to win a league medal (Blackburn) and stay only one season with the club?

[tali1]

Polly1958 is closest so far :)

[bobthebandit]

Is he the most expensive English player to be transferred between clubs?

[mark01]

Worlds most expensive player at the time

[another-view]

Did he mangae to eat 50 pickled onions in a minute?

[tali1]

Yes mark01 is right - BUT ALSO he is only post war BRITISH player to hold that record

[mark01]

Forget 'British' player tali1 - he's ENGLISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bobthebandit]

Im not sure if I am correct, but doesnt Rio Ferdinand hold the record for being the most expensive British transferee at �30 million?

[lesblue]

Yes,bob, but Rio's transfer never broke the WORLD transfer record, which is the point tali1 was trying to make.

Shearer once bought a round of drinks in the Pacific Bar in Newcastle. Everyone was so shocked the place was closed down in a week!!!
