Alan Shearer Compilation

God


Here is a great Alan Shearer video made by Newuxtreme. He left this in the comments a while back but I had trouble downloading it at first until I found it on a different server. I'll let him explain in his own words with the text taken from Shearer9.com message board.

Mega Alan Shearer Compilation, Complete Career by Newuxtreme

Hi guys this has been my on and off project since over 1 year. I have tried to make this comp around 6-7 times already using different softwares(Moviemaker, Vegas, Video Edit Magic etc.) but I've always had problems, luckily I didn't have any problems this time.

It took me around 4 months to make this movie, and so I would really appreciate feedback that you would give back in return for this movie, as it would inspire me to make more movies like this, about certain players like Beckham etc.


Alan Shearer is a living legend and is definitely one of the best center-forwards in this world, and that you can see from this compilation.
It contains lots of his footage from when he was in Soton & Blackburn as well as England.

This movie shows his career in chronological order, (year-wise).

This compilation probably contains every goal of his Newcastle and International Career

This compilation contains :-

1. Goals
2. Injuries
3. Fights
4. Interviews
5. Awards
6. Top 10 Goals

Size : 207Mb + 13MB
Quality : 512 kbps
Duration : 57:42 Minutes

EDIT : Sorry Guys I goofed up, I missed getting in an entire season, whose video is already made, not to worry I'll make that one seperately and post it here. It's his 2001-02 Season.


MegaUpload link

FileFront link. I had some problems downloading this link but no problems with the first link. This link could well contain the missing season but I'm not sure as it kept stopping downloading halfway through.

Thanks to Shearer9.com where I found the link that worked for me.

Very very impressive.

Also, while I am here, a quick plug for my blog which has a couple of great geordie songs to download.

Alan Shearer's goals

I wrote a page called Alan Shearer's goals ages ago.
I reckon there's 58 of them. The page is part of the archives, when toongoals was hosted at GeoCities and I don't have access to edit it. It looks a bit funny but the links I tested worked fine.

There's even more clips on the search page of the archives. To get a page with links that says:
"Summary
67 clips from the Premier League
6 clips from the FA Cup
4 clips from the Champions League
4 clips from the UEFA Cup
1 clip from friendlies
3 clips from Internationals
1 clip from advertisements

86 clips, 192.4 Mb = 30 Mins 43 secs in total of Shearer."


1. Go to the search page
2. In the top box that says "Search for a player:"
3. Select Alan Shearer from the drop down menu
4. Click "Go" in the top box.

I've also put up Netbusters' feature on Alan Shearer from SkySports:
1996-97, 1997-98, 1998-99, 1999-2000, 2000-01 & 2001-02

Three of my favourite memories of Alan Shearer are (dodgy quality):
Wednesday August 21, 1996 Premier League
Wimbledon (H) W 2-0 Alan Shearer (88) 379 Kb = 2 secs
Alan Shearer's first goal for the Toon

Saturday December 28, 1996 Premier League
Totteham H. (H) W 7-1 Alan Shearer (19) 2.1 Mb = 27 secs
"One against three, but the one was Alan Shearer".

Sunday April 11, 1999 F.A. Cup semi final
Tottenham H. (n) W 2-0 Alan Shearer (119) 1.3 Mb = 28 secs
The goal at Old Trafford that guaranteed a Wembley appearance.

Respect


06-04-21 God


Thanks for the memories and the goals of course.

Taken from Henry Winter of the Telegraph..
The DJ at St James' Park must find another stadium-shaking, pulse-racing anthem. Local Hero must return to its case as Alan Shearer sheds himself of his second skin, that black-and-white No 9 shirt he wore with such distinction. As the Toon contemplate life after Shearer, the only lyrics that fully capture the Gallowgate's emotions are "God only knows what I'd be without you."

Just as critics sniped that Shearer had stayed on a season too long, he responded to the brickbats and the falling curtain with a fusillade of goals: clinical penalties, cool one-on-one finishes and regrets, if but a few, about the ones that got away.

Monday's ligament trouble at Sunderland has not simply precipitated Shearer's retirement date by three games, but deprived Newcastle United of the services of their most in-form forward. How typical of the man: he went out striking fear in a rivals' goalkeeper, Kelvin Davis, who had just thwarted England's present No 9, Wayne Rooney, in his previous outing against Manchester United. The verdict on Shearer's career is simple and uplifting: he remained a goal threat until the end.

At the final reckoning, the stats scream Shearer's class: 409 goals, including 30 for England, spread over 18 years, yet it is the words, not the impressive numbers, that truly define this special individual. Words like loyalty. In the Bosman world of constant movement, where devotion can be a dirty word, Shearer fought against the take-the-money creed.

His career began at Southampton, but the Geordie nation's No 1 ambassador worked his way home, via title-winning Blackburn Rovers, where he was loved like a son by Kenny Dalglish and the late, much-missed Jack Walker. Manchester United fans derided Shearer for snubbing them twice, decisions he knew would cost him a cabinet full of medals, but the call of the Gallowgate meant more. Much more. You cannot put a price on being a local hero.

Newcastle United are his club, his passion. When the wonderful Angel of the North was erected overlooking the A1, enterprising Newcastle fans quickly clad it with a massive Toon shirt bearing Shearer's name. Because Shearer is the greatest advertisement for Newcastle: hard-working, down to earth and with a real twinkle in his eye.

So respect the phenomenal goal return, but warm to the words that describe Shearer. Words like commitment. In the age of millionaires in the comfort zone, Shearer constantly put his body on the line. Twice, he fought back from knee injuries that would have defeated lesser mortals. Amid all the understandable wailing from Wallsend to Washington over Monday's injury, it was fitting that what appears Shearer's final act in a Newcastle strip should be an attempted tackle on a Sunderland player despite being on one leg. Competing to the last.

This is a warrior who never surrendered for Southampton, Blackburn or Newcastle, and never, ever for his country. In the nervous minutes before kick-off, England players would glance round the dressing-room, see Shearer with his eyes ablaze with determination, and belief would fill them.

Other words. Like integrity. In a profession tarnished by unpleasant creatures like Lee Bowyer, Shearer represents a breed for whom principles count. Some of his distracted peers become stars of CCTV. Not Shearer, now a BBC favourite. Value-giving and clean-living, Shearer is a model person as well as a model pro.

He has his golf, his family, his friends and the respect of everyone.

People say Shearer should focus on the Beeb, gradually articulating his interesting thoughts on the game as his distance from the dressing-room grows. Yet the former England captain has still so much to offer football. He could make a good manager, although the modest dedication levels of certain younger pros would frustrate a competitor who gave his all in every game, in every training session.

Even as the sands of time ran out on his career, Shearer gave his beloved Newcastle continued bragging rights over Sunderland. For that alone, he will always be the local hero. God only knows when Newcastle will see Shearer's like again.

59MB highlights package at nearly 10 minutes long here. Sorry about the size(now there's something I don't get to say too often) but I think it's better this way what with Rapidshare being how it is and we do all have broadband now don't we? If more than 10 people moan in the comments I may split the file up tomorrow if I get the time. Possibly. :)
Once again thanks to Hippy Tony from Heaton for ripping this file for us all to really enjoy.
