  1. I'd say some of those players you mention are the reason why we went down in the first place. Course they are, I never suggested otherwise. We still need them to get us back up. What so we can come straight back down again? Some fans are more bothered about how it will look to other supporters in terms of attendances than doing it to help the club long term. The guy is cancer, he needs cutting out!
  2. If not = Still nothing spent on players = Even shitter team = More ways to piss us all off = Coming straight back down even if we do go up = Will try to sell for twice the price if promotion = Back to square 1
  3. Drag him down the dungeon and wait for Zed?
  4. Pretty much sums up my feelings and I couldn't have put it any better myself.
  5. Why all Newcastle fans should boycott Mike Ashley's plan to rename St James' Park: Simon Bird's big lunchtime read By Mirror Football Blog And the latest from SportsDirect.com Park is that Mike Ashley couldn’t sell Newcastle United. So instead he’s decided to sell it’s history. Taking Newcastle off the market last night was a blow, but not a huge surprise. Chris Hughton got the manager’s job full time - no shock there either. But here’s the real stunner. Prepare for St James’ Park to become the Popular Airline Arena. Or perhaps the Well Known Chocolate Bar Bowl. Or the High Street Bank Stadium. Tucked away at the bottom of his statement last night announcing Hughton as boss, and saying Barry Moat couldn’t raise the cash for a takeover, Ashley blundered (that word again) into making the kind of provocative, insensitive, ludicrous statement he has made his trademark as a football club owner. He tells us that the club are exploring ways of maximising new revenue streams next summer. And that means St James’ Park, the name that is, will soon be no more. Replaced by a soulless corporate label. Ashley is ready to trade more than a century of tradition for a few quid. To sacrifice the name of the city’s most famous landmarks to swell the coffers with a sum that will hardly buy a decent new striker if United do get promoted. Ask a football fan anywhere in the world what they know about Newcastle United and they’ll say St James’ Park, Alan Shearer and black and white stripes. Well, Ashley’s already cast Shearer aside, now for the name of the ground. What next? Out with the black and white, and in with an all new red and white home kit? Let’s not give the man ideas. After all this is a club who asked for potential buyers to bid via an email address in June... only to be deluged by hoaxers. His latest brainstorm will be met with the kind of anger that accompanied his treatment of Kevin Keegan in September last year. It is as if he sat back and thought: How can I rile those Geordies some more?! How can I take away a bit more dignity from the club? Does he not see that putting the name of St James’ Park up for sale, on the same night as he decided to extend his massively unpopular regime, is so deliberately provocative as to incite new levels of frustration/rage/disillusionment at his regime? Hang on a minute, you are thinking. It is those Geordies getting all sentimental again. Just like they did about Keegan. They’ll be crying on the telly next. Plenty of other clubs have successfully renamed grounds. Look at Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium, lovely place. Yes, but it was a new stadium. Actually it is a lot about being sentimental. When your club has been reduced to a shadow of its former self by the mismanagement, incompetence and lies of an owner with no more credibility, then you cling to the solid foundations of its history. The strip, the ground, the legends who have served it faithfully in the past. St James’ Park is as massive part of Newcastle’s history. Generations of families have walked to what Sir Bobby Robson used to call the “cathedral“ on the hill. My first visit to St James’ Park was in the early ’80s. Newcastle 4-2 QPR. Peter Wythe scored twice AND rescued a black and white collie dog that strayed onto the pitch. The main stand was nothing much more than a tin shed. There was a small window masquerading as a ticket office. The tickets cost £2.50 each, for the best seats. (Well it was a birthday treat.) I was actually at ST JAMES’ PARK. If your dad took you to St James’ Park for your first match, you want to take your lad, or lass, to St James’ Park to see his first match. So yes, perhaps that is a bit sentimental. But it is also about not selling out and turning a historic ground into just another corporate entity in the glitsy, everything is up for grabs, world of soccerball. Or whatever it will soon be called. I sincerely hope that finally a crazy plan mooted by a crazy owner will be defeated. Already the Geordie fans are mobilising, and they’ll vent their fury. I plan one small protest. I vow always to refer to it as St James’ Park in my MirrorFootball dispatches. I would urge others to follow suit and show any new sponsors they’d be wasting their money buying a name that belongs to the stadium and the fans. Toon fans: what do you think of Mike Ashley's latest brainstorm? Let us know by leaving your comments below...
  6. The only way we have for screwing him over is by not turning up until he feels the burden other than that hiring a sniper.
  7. Doesn't look such a bad idea know does it boys and girls?
  8. Hughton. He ain't selling us. You know I mean the fat fingered fker No I mean't hughton deal, he won't sell us. Aye it will be the Hughton deal .... its why the fat c*** has made it so public that he is there, childish prick that he is. Be funny if thousands of Charvers saw SSN and went there. Next live pictures of him being dragged out of the training ground with shit stains all up his back.
  9. Just hope we start playing decent stuff instead of the usual play shit until we go behind bollocks.
  10. Everyone of them should die like a chewyew dick up a tramps dirty salted peanuts dirt trap. unted chicken frierers Smelley emma bunton supporting long haired blonde twats. Ha ha that told the sober cunts in the bistro!
  11. Is the support for the team really effective? Ask yourself that seriously. Is the protest against Ashley really effective? Support may not have a positive effect, but it's a hell of alot better than protesting, which brings more ill-feeling. Why do you insist that not turning up is a protest? No banners, no chants but it will do the most damage to Ashley without a doubt.

  13. So 40 + thousand really has helped the team I see. Fucking time to walk out until fat cunt leaves.
  14. Players and owner need a fucking kicking if this satys as it is. Fucking disgrace.
  15. Really hope they get Ron Atkinson back on board as well.
  16. I will as it's the only option we have left. Anyway i'm off to bed. Night.
  17. Just sit back obviously. Just f*** off and stop putting words in my mouth. I'll quite happily eat humble pie if these 'protests' work, but I'm confident they won't. Not putting words in anybodys mouth. And why are you still thinking it's a protest? This envolves no banners and no chants, just don't turn up. Oh sorry, I must have missed the bit where I said we should sit back and do nothing. Of course it's a protest. You're not there in opposition of Ashley - you're protesting against him. A protest isn't just a march/leaflet campaign. Every action or boycott against him is a form of protest. How is Ashley going to know it's a protest if people just don't turn up? lol Ashley knows only money, and as soon as he thinks he's going to have to dip into his pockets again to cover the running costs he'll take the first offer on the table. But as we're covering the cost of the wages with turning up, he couldn't give a toss.

  19. Laughable, really! What do actually think is happening now? how bad does ashley have to run this club, until people don't see any other action some fan's are totally blind to the direction we are heading to Some fans are more bothered about attendances and not letting them drop below the scums. Some fans have already paid for their tickets before this shite blew up. Well yes you've already paid upfront so the club has had the money already.
