As a teenager watching Norwich, Bellamy was my footballing hero. He was such an exciting player to watch every week. It's so nice to hear him talk so well about Norwich City, the people at the club and the area. We'd love to see him back at Carrow Road, it's been far too long. #OTBC

We loved him at West Ham. I was only a kid when he was playing but you looked up to him because you knew he would put that shirt on and give absolutely everything. If he stayed at us he would of become a cult hero or a legend 100% but we all understand why he left.

Welsh legend

[@NewcastleUnited19801994Videos]

When you factor in how bad Souness treat him (and Laurent Robert) and took Newcastle backwards (from European Football to a relegation battle) within a year of management, Craig Bellamy came in for some unnecessary stick when he faced Newcastle. We should have "sided" with him collectively. Thankfully, the last 2 times he returned to St James Park, he got a decent ovation when subbed (playing for Liverpool) and as sub (for Cardiff). A fantastic player and it's a shame people look at a spat with Shearer over his quality and contribution on the pitch.

[@thecentralclub]

Great comment! Stay Central

[@grahamrose2987]

Well spoken Bellamy loved him at Newcastle and he's right got turned into a circus in the end. Good luck to him in the future.

This is a breath of fresh air. I grew up in Weston super Vegas ,20 miles south of Bristol. First game was City v Bournemouth, 1985, old division 3 brother took me. And that was me. Fighting with all the Liverpool ‘fans’ at my primary school - none of them having been to a game a taking the mickey out of me for following a shit team. I’m a teacher in Bristol, secondary kids, and first question to newbies always - who do you support? Que Man City, United, Liverpool etc. Second q always the same; City or Rovers? And they always say one or other! Kids just wanna be ‘in’ with a good team. The old values of one team only are few and far.

Great interview. It appears he acknowledges he was a worky ticket. If you do a 3rd (please), it would be good to ask: What really happened with John Carver at Newcastle Airport? His celebration when scoring the winner v Everton seemed to be a lonely one. Did he lose some of the dressing room after being sent off in midweek v Inter Milan (got battered 1-4) Has he seen / spoken to Shearer since the text argument back in 2005? Best moment in a B & W shirt? Cheers
