Vale Sam Newman

“People have a right to say whatever they like about me, or this show or people on it."

Alrighty then.

He looks like an old leather handbag with a pineapple in it and I would be happier if he died.

Speaking of leather handbags full of pineapples, Keith Richards will outlive Sam Newman.

If only Geelong were still playing finals, they could have worn black armbands for him.

Sadly, both Sam and the show became victims of modern PC culture. The show is now a shadow of its former self as a result and it is about time to put it out of its misery.

Namure I mean manure.

 

[SwampCreature]

Did a lot for football, a long time ago. Helped people enjoy it a different way.

Those days are long gone now. You can’t fight time.






Anyway that’s my opinion of Bay 13. What’s all this Sam Newman stuff?

The show was never cool, edgy or funny in a non-PC way. It was always bad, and relied on poor jokes and F-grade pub tradie banter to attract a stupid audience.

Now that audience have purchased Netflix subscriptions.

Nice attempt at resuscitation by Eddie the business king, maybe try investing your time in to something with upside - like your family!

I'm pretty sure people just watched The Footy Show because it was all that was on TV on a Thursday night.

Plenty of other shows for Sam to be a part of when he leaves the Footy Show. He would fit right into this one for instance:

 

[Andrew Birch]

The Herald Sun's Soozie O'Brien on hearing of Sam's retirement

Love the footy show. Sad times indeed.

bullshit it became victim of the same old channel 9 crap about flogging dead horses 20 years beyond their shelf life. The fact that their are neanderthal who still pine for Hey Hey to come back and laugh at Sam is irrelevant. These are the sort of people who wear footy shorts at the pool.

what a shock ! lol

 

[Art Corvelay]

Smart decision by Sam to get 9 talking about the shows future sooner rather than later... but not sure the overwhelming outcry supporting the show will come.

why am I not surprised

I didn't even see his farewell speech as I was watching The Front Bar and going by the ratings so were most other people.
