For each body blow that Mike Ashley delivers to this club and the fans, it feels like the club loses a bit more of it's character, it's charm and respect in my eyes. It just feels now after this whole saga and the others before it that the club is completely flat and empty.
I won't back Pardew in any capacity, as I think supporting him would give Ashley the impression that his decision was justified and he'll continue this trend of stupidity further down the line if things are looking up for us. The day him and his cronies leave this club will feel like the biggest weight in the world lifted from our shoulders. The thought of our beloved club having to be associated with Mike Ashley for what could be another decade and beyond makes me sick to my stomach.
