Isn't that Jose Guillen?

In even bigger news Man United squared off with the Blackburn Rovers to a 0-0 tie.

Both Golaies were Yanks, Friedel and Howard

Bowyer has been in trouble before when he played for Leeds United, Bowyer & Jonathon Woodgate (now Real Madrid) were accused of assalt outside a nightclub in Leeds but were found not guilty in court. He is well known for being a hot headed player.

Keiren Dyer is also no angel, he was involved in a 4 in a bed romp home video the other season & earlier this season upset the former England & Newcastle coach Bobby Robson for refusing to play in unfamilier postion when injuries hit the Newcastle team. The fans have just started to worship Dyer again then this happens.

That was quite a sight to see...I couldn't believe what was unfolding before my eyes! Bowyer should never play in Britain again.

Re: 2 Newcastle United players get in a fight during a game

After the game Newcastle United boss Greame Souness (hardman in his playing days) made Lee Bowyer & Kieren Dyer attend the after match press conference.

Re: 2 Newcastle United players get in a fight during a game

Bowyer's a brit and he's extremely talented. Remember he and Kewell and other of the young contingent under David O'Leary had Leeds in the Semi Finals in Europe just a few years ago.

Sad to see this happen. But Bowyer's always had a little thug in him.

Re: 2 Newcastle United players get in a fight during a game

Always had a soft spot for Leeds, even after they had to have their fire sale to

Just loved their contingent of young guys. Bowyer, Kewell, Woodgate, Robinson, Alan Smith, Viduka, Dacourt, Ian Harte. I thought when they got Robbie Fowler they were setting up to be one of the dominant teams in England for years to come.

Loved watching them, and I was always had fun playing them on FIFA.

But they really took the nukes to that team, and Bowyer and Woodgates legal issues certainly didn't help matters.

Oh well, was a fun team to watch while it lasted.

For a little more entertainment/background, if anyone thinks the American press is hard on it's sports stars, here's a cover of the Mirror when Bowyer was having his legal troubles a few years ago
