FFS it sounds flippant but it was shite.

I'll never forget being shouted at by fans for joining in with the SP and AO campaign those were fucking dark days. made me have to move seat from the milburn paddocks to the gallowgate. was told i was "the worst kind of fan". as it happens, its so much better in the gallowgate anyway. Ashleyout would have a lot more support from the media this time round I feel.

got to target his precious sports direct - the only thing he's gives a shit about.

Does he f***. he's well aware of his reputation. he would do all in his power to do the best for this club, but he's absolutely at ashley's beck and call. he may be spineless and a s*** chief exec, but he does care - just not enough to resign, though.
-
charnley absolutely does gives a fuck about the club and the city. he has no power to do anything about it. he's basically ashley's bitch.

reduced to begging the likes of southampton for a loan of one of their reserves.

few complaints. we were really good and worked hard. joselu hardly lost an aerial challenge. thought elliot was poor, and manquilo often caught out of position. bizarre refereeing decision after that clash of heads mind. what the fuck was going on there? what did hernandez get booked for?

Michael Martin is a right c*** but that article is true in every word. As was said in that piece, things have been bad in the past but the difference now is that the person running the club isn't even trying to make the club successful. I wasn't around for the McKeag years and I've been unable to read too much about it apart from a snippet from the book Touching Distance. Only thing I know are best players sold for the building of a new stand, stadium in awful condition, s*** team, crowds of mostly <17,000, how different were those years to now? My dad went to games in that period and he still goes now, but he never really talks of it. Although young myself back then, they sure were awful times. The ground was old and crumbling. As a kid i remember the old leazes end being demolished and they intended to build a new stand and join it with the East stand. We got relegated. They got as far as building a small terrace with a wall behind it then the work had to stop as we were skint. IIRC what is now the Milburn stand had to be replaced after the Bradford fire. It had wooden floors and seats and really was a danger. Now we have the stadium, crowds, everything in place, just no ambition. So McKeag actually was just skint? Was he as much of a vile b****** as Ashley? My era mate and i was a kid back then and football so so much more simple back then (old git mode ) .we were s*** but tbh the fans were behind the team then now i think with the passion and to answer your question about Mckeag well i think he cared but greed took over but looking back i really enjoyed home and away with my mates . Goes to show the way football's changed in the modern day. Absolute minging circumstances the club was in, crumbling stadium, s**** team, relegations, yet fans like yourselves were still enjoying following the team. I've still got that enjoyment of following Newcastle to be sapped from me being a younger supporter (although they are doing their best to rid me of it right now, cheers Mike) but can completely understand other people's complete loss of enthusiam for the club and/or football in general. in those days we never thought we could be any better/bigger. took the likes of SJH and KK to show us a glimpse of the promised land. the truth came out. we COULD succeed.

he'll never make a loss on the toon - there'll always be a buyer out there. in the meantime its free SD advertising.
-
very good tonight - out wide and more centrally.
-
a few "get out of our club" chants from the corner tonight.
-
aarons did really well tonight. sadly sterry and barlaser were way out of their league - even against a championship club. hanley was atrocious - hope no scouts were watching. again, balls being played across the face of goal and mitro nowhere to be seen. kind of game gayle would have done well in.
-
darlow is a better keeper and miles more agile than this slob. kicking was awful, and he was hopeless on crosses against huddersfield.
-
to be honest, some of the negativity and rafa's body language during interviews must be getting through to the players.
-
saivet was definitely at the training day. took the bairns to watch it.
-
It's the radio equivalent of clickbait. Adrian Durham is an utter w***** though so it's only to be expected. adrian durham is a wanker, but to his credit he did side with the fans during the sackpardew days.
-
bloody linesman prevented a certain equalizer today.
-
harry rednapp was on talksport this morning talking about the problems with making loan deals. he mentioned the huge loan fees but also the fact that clauses were inserted so that penalties would have to be paid every time the player wasnt picked to start. fucking ridiculous.
-
good first touch, two-footed and decent in the air according to deniswisescouting.tv.uk - but then again, so is shola on there.

when the chinese takeover rumours surfaced earlier this summer, a lot were a little perturbed and had suggested the "better the devil you know" and "ashley's gets it this time" scenarios. think the sky bullshit puts that firmly to rest. we need him out of our club.
