Utter utter attention-seeking tool.

Plus it's the *West* End of Newcastle which is/was the poverty-stricken area!

Bloody Hell, I though those Lee Clark quotes were someone taking the piss, and was about to say how funny it was, especially the bits about brothers and sisters not getting xmas presents, which was like the '4 yorkshiremen sketch'.

Except he actually said those things...

Exactly my reaction when I read this. Just staggeringly crass

I've never been to the East End of Newcastle but I highly doubt it's worse than the late eighties Balkan war zone that Zigic grew up in.

If he was talking about Byker, then a war zone might have been preferable.

Clark appeared to reach the end of his tether earlier this season : I think he needs to jack it in for his own sanity, he seems to be running on empty, to me.
