‘I still can’t stand them’ – Newcastle legend Alan Shearer has no regrets over Manchester United snub
Alan Shearer has taken a swipe at Manchester United, claiming he has no regrets about rejecting a move to Old Trafford.The Newcastle legend and all-time Premier League top scorer, who was twice courted by the Red Devils, says he still can’t stand the club.Sir Alex Ferguson famously tried and failed to sign Shearer, first in 1992 when the striker opted instead for Blackburn, and again in 1996 when he joined his boyhood club Newcastle.Shearer subsequently missed out on one of the most successful periods by any English club in history, and one fan on Twitter asked if he has any regrets.Shearer is arguably Newcastle’s greatest ever player1

The Match of the Day pundit responded, presumably with his tongue firmly in his cheek, saying: “NEVER! I couldn’t stand them then and I can’t stand them now!!!”Shearer has previously admitted he had been tempted by Man United on both occasions.Ahead of his final Newcastle game in 2006, ironically against the Red Devils at Old Trafford, the England Legend said:“Of course, I was tempted to join Manchester United, but I do not regret either decision. “I had a magical time at Blackburn, winning the league. And I completed my own dream of playing for my home town club of Newcastle.“I have memories I will hold forever and a goalscoring record that makes me extremely proud.“Come the final whistle on Sunday I will shake Alex Ferguson’s hand. He is a man you cannot help but admire for what he has achieved in the game.”
