Shearer On Shearer The Story

Alan Shearer has justified the status he once held as the world's most expensive footballer by scoring more goals than anyone else since the launch of the Premier League in 1992. Shearer is the first player since the 1930s, the heyday of the bustling, robust English centre-forward, to score more than 30 goals in the top division in three successive seasons. His tally of 34 goals in 1994-95, the middle season of his outstanding run, helped Blackburn Rovers win the championship title for the first time in 81 years. 'Alan is a player in a class of his own,' Kenny Dalglish, the then Blackburn manager, said. 'He lifts the whole team and turns draws into victories. In a word: priceless.' John Barnes, the England winger, described Shearer's value to his team as 'incalculable'. Shearer stands alone as the leading goalscorer in the history of Premier League. Between 1992-93 and the end of 2004-05, he scored 250 league goals for Blackburn and Newcastle United. His outstanding form during the mid-1990s had raised his value in the transfer market seven-fold in the space of five years: from £2.2 million, the fee Dalglish paid Southampton in 1992, to the £15.6 million fee Newcastle United invested in 1996. Shearer has been transferred twice in his career: the first of his transfer fees was a British record; the second was a world record sum for a footballer. It was widely reported that Blackburn refused to sell Shearer to Manchester United earlier in 1997 for fear that his arrival at Old Trafford would make Alex Ferguson's side unbeatable. Jack Walker, the millionaire benefactor at Ewood Park, even offered to make Shearer the player-manager of Rovers, at the age of just 25, in a last-ditch effort to keep him at the club, but the lure of Newcastle United proved too strong for a player who had supported the club as a boy.

Kenny Dalglish Blackburn Rovers 1993 1994 "The Boss"

 Blackburn chose the right season to win promotion from the Second Division. They went straight into the new Premier Division after winning a Wembley play-off final against Leicester City. The last Premier spot was not decided until 25 May, more than two weeks after the Cup final. Rovers' David Speedie was brought down in the penalty area, and Mike Newell scored from the spot for the only goal of the game. Blackburn's appearance in the top flight will be their first since 1966. There were two ironies in their achievement. Their late chairman, Bill Fox, as president of the Football League, had fought tooth and nail against the new Premier League, which his club were now joining. And Kenny Dalglish, their manager, who had been lured to Blackburn by retired steel magnate Jack W'alker, with the help of £5.5 million to spend in the transfer market, found himself returning to the pressures of the top divi-sion, which had forced him to give up the Liverpool manager-ship only 15 months earlier.

Ewood Park

 Crystal Palace strode triumphantly into Division One amid amazing scenes when Ian Wright scored a stunning winner three minutes from the end of time in the second leg of their promotion play-off at Selhurst Park. Wright's carefully placed header capped a magnificent performance from Steve Coppell's team as they clawed back Blackburn's two-goal advantage from the first leg. In a contest that could not be bettered as a sporting spectacle, Palace remained true to their season-long philosophy and gambled on attack. It was daring, painfully exciting, but above all successful. In the frenzied atmosphere. Palace benefited from an early break, when the prolific Wright scrambled home his first goal after Pardew's cross had caused havoc. Only the heroics of central defender Hendry kept Blackburn from disintegrating, but they stayed ahead on aggregate until just after the interval. Atkins needlessly brought down McGoldrick, anil Madden converted the penalty to set up the eventual dramatic finish.

Liverpool, League champions and First Division leaders, were within a minute of an inglorious FA Cup exit. Blackburn Rovers, 19th in the Second Division, were leading 1-0 when the ball squirted out of play on the left flank of their defence. An obliging ball-girl returned the ball to Steve Nicol, who threw it to Ray Houghton. His cross went over Gary Gillespie, who was baulked by a defender, and flew agonisingly off the foot of Blackburn right-back Mark Atkins into his own goal.

Rovers Return The Team That Jack Built

 Alan Shearer enfile les buts comme il accumule les surnoms. Helmet Head pour sa coupe de cheveux en forme de casque remain, ou encore Chink , parce qu'il resemble a un asiatique lorsqu'il sourit. Son pere prefere l'appeter Smokey. C'est le nom d'une marque de chips au bacon dont Alan Junior est particulterement friand. Bientot, Newcastle United, le club de ses reves, fait du pied au jeune Alan. Celui ci se presente a la journee de detection et se place... dans le but! Il n'y avail pas de gardien, ce jour là. Bonne pate, il s'est devoue. Pas vraiment le bon moyen de se mettre en valeur... Essai non transforms Alan ne baisse pas les bras et decide d'abandonner sa scolarite. Tout pour le foot. Et tant pis si ce n'est pas a Newcastle. Southampton, modeste dub peu enclin a s'offrir de grandes stars, recrute a l’époque beaucoup de jeunes talents.
