Did Cantona get on with Cole? Van Nistelrooy wasn't a fan of Young Stepover Ronaldo?
Cole & Sheringham didn't get on. [edit: just realised they're in the linked article. :) )

Shearer and Keith Gillespie didn't get on, don't think he got on too well with Lauren Robert either

Remember that game well. The Villa-players were so shocked that they didn't bother going in attack for the rest of the game, I think they were 3-1 up before the incident happened.

I think they've made up recently? And I doubt that there was hatred — just a long alienation due to their mother/Bobby's wife conflict
Yes, very probable there was more to it decades ago that has healed since.

Never seen that. I don't get it. Cole wasn't happy because Teddy wasn't happy to being replaced by Cole? The crowd seemed pretty happy.

EDIT: And the lack of handshake?
Pretty much. He said he was excited and nervous about making his debut(it means everything to him blah blah blah) and then when he didnt get the handshake or words of encouragement he wanted his feelings were hurt. He actually said hed rather go for drink with razor ruddock than teddy he hates him that much. And the funny thing is, if you look close enough it looks like he did get a handshake. Well not a handshake, more like a hand tag. I might be wrong and its just the swing of his arm, but it looks like he got a tag. To me anyway, kinda hard to tell.

But yeah, 15 years of hatred over that. I say 15 years because at the time of the interview it was 2010. They might have made up since then, but I couldnt tell you if they did.

Keane vs the entirety of our squad could probably count around when he left.

Didnt know that about Cole and Sheringham on England duty. I always thought the story was that Sheringham blamed him for a goal we conceded, and told him so in the centre corcle when they went to kick off again and it then went from there.

Supposedly Sheringham used to give Cole advice whilst playing. . . . which Cole did not like at all.

Sturridge and Suarez. They argued a few times on the pitch and I don't think they ever liked passing to each other.

It's very easy to tell from the reaction of players when they score who doesn't like who on a team.

Some players, who are near the goalscorer, don't run to celebrate with others or when they do so it's clearly half hearted (leaving aside goalkeepers here obviously)

You usually have to watch a goal a few times and look for the obvious hidden evidence.

Ribéry & co vs Gourcuff. Ruined a whole world cup for France.

When we got back to Manchester the manager pulled the usual, you’re a disgrace to the club blah blah blah. I’ve heard that a few times, I was like what about Denis he was late for the bus.”

:lol:
“The next morning we slept it out, I was rooming with Denis Irwin and we were late and Denis was going mad. You think he’d been caught in bed with someone.

“We were like 5 minutes late for the bus and I was packing me bag and me hand was sore and I said ‘I think I was fighting last night’ and he said we’re late for the bus and I said feck the bus, Denis! Jesus Christ man. He was panicking over the bus his image was tarnished.

i think "1 player vs. whole team" is a different situation, no? Plenty of examples for that. At Bayern, we had Andi Herzog, or Jupp Kapellmann who were mobbed by the gang.
It's not a whole team in this case, more like 6 or 7 harassers on one side and a few to defend the guy on the other.

I can understand Cole being peeved. It's just standard protocol when your substituted to high five your replacement. It's not his fault you are being substituted.
Surely the player coming on should also be able to realize that it's not necessarily anything personal, just a playing being frustrated to come off? If that's really the whole story of why he hated (hates?) him that much, that says more about Cole than about Sheringham.

Bowyer and Dyer supposedly never had any kind of long standing beef, just some horseshit that spilled over from the training grounds and obviously being rattled down 3-1 to Villa at home. Granted Lee wasn't the most well liked anyway.

On the Gillespie/Shearer one. . . . Gillespie reportedly threw a punch at Shearer in a bar in Dublin and missed entirely because he was pissed.

Shearer had a go back and then invited Gillespie outside for a man-to-man. . . . Gillespie apparently walked behind Shearer, then realising Shearer was going to give him a beating he went and hit Shearer from behind as they approached the door. . . A melee then ensued.
