    Have any of the boards been undeserving of the stick they've got, like?

    Can't accept that at all like, it's effectively just giving someone the license to fuck you over and over again and saying "ah well, could be worse".

    Paul Dummett

    The most reluctant corner kick ever taken? Of course it hit the first man too

    I have most definitely enjoyed Burton.

    Looked and sounded class, much more positive protest than any other I’ve been to. More please.
  6. Isn't he in too deep with him? Owns half of KBA, doesn't he?
  7. What have I done? Didn't even tag you! I'm looking forward to the protest, but I'm still keen on seeing us win tomorrow. Think the two can go hand-in-hand, for the time being.

    Fabian Schär

    Think he'll be decent once settled, as well. Definitely think Fernandez is the short-term answer though.
  9. I'd like to see... Dubravka Yedlin Lascelles Fernandez Dummett Shelvey Diame Ritchie Perez Kenedy Rondon However, there are doubts over Yedlin (late return from international duty), Shelvey (only just returned to full training, but Benitez is optimistic), Ritchie (still not back in full training), Kenedy (still suffering a bit with a groin injury but in full training) and Rondon (late return from international duty). Be very surprised if Yedlin, Shelvey and Kenedy don't start. The worst-case scenario looks frightening, though... Dubravka Manquillo Lascelles Fernandez Dummett Ki Diame Murphy Perez Atsu Joselu Fanks, Mike.

    Fucking whitewash, as expected.
  11. It'll win Liverpool the league then everyone will be at it.
  12. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/45405476 Fucking love stuff like this, revolutionising the throw-in. Of course Andy Gray has already piped up saying it's a load of shite.

    Think this more or less makes my mind up that there needs to be a very simple website where people can upload pictures and descriptions of various problems with the stadium. The site could auto-report them to the relevant people and we could then hold the club accountable for sorting them out.
  15. McCarthy, McClean, Brady, Long, Arter, Maguire All the big guns, basically.

    I went along to the meeting last night as an interested observer and think I'm probably going to try and get more involved in helping The Magpie Group after hearing what they had to say, but also after just having a few chats here and there with other supporters outside of the group who have been looking for an outlet to go after Ashley. Basically, I was trying to have a wander and chat to some of the older groups of blokes in attendance and the passion they still have to get Ashley out is staggering, although sadly the majority had given up their tickets despite having gone for decades. They still turned up and were keen to go to any and all future protests, though, which is pretty fantastic. The majority I spoke to heard about the meeting via NUFC.com too, so fair play to Biffa and Niall for publicising it - makes a huge difference. At the end of the night I told some of the lads from the group itself that I'd try to see if there was anyone from N-O interested in helping them out, so here I am... Is there anyone on here who didn't/couldn't attend the meeting but would be keen to get more involved? Not necessarily just in protesting/doing anything in and around the city, but helping in other ways? Giving advice/ideas, providing contacts in local businesses who could be useful, helping with online content/social media, etc.? They were also pushing their newsletter, so if you just want to sign up to that you can find it on the top right of this page (and I've added it to the OP as well for ease): https://themagpiegroup.co.uk

    I guess we can't afford to worry too much about whether there's a buyer. Personally that's the reason I can't see Ashley going, because he'll always want more than a sensible buyer will be willing to pay. But I suppose the campaign can't afford to worry about that, the job is to make Ashley's life so uncomfortable that he might eventually be more motivated to sell, and therefore the pool of sensible buyers can be bigger. Exactly this, and by definition that is doing something.

    Some fair points Benwell, although I do think you’re missing the bigger picture with what the group is trying to do. As an aim at the meeting last night, people seemed to be in general consensus that getting Ashley to get fed up enough to sell the club at a reasonable price is realistic and achievable. At the minute there’s no way he sells unless a truly insane offer gets made, that’s narrowing the pool of people with clout you’re speaking of even further.
