Don't think he did but he threatened too. Which you could argue is almost as bad I suppose. -

It's very much all under discussion still but thus it seems it will continue under a different name and maybe take a slightly different approach albeit the professionally made flags and what-not will still be made and utilized. I've dipped out of the WhatsApp group for a couple of weeks for personal reasons but I've been kept up to date by some of the lads and everyone seems as keen as ever to continue this given how much of a success we felt the Liverpool game was. Certain members of the group seem to be less willing to be involved with the Tifo style approach some of us have adopted in an attempt to be more original and sporadic whilst also saving cash. Maybe it boils down to different perceptions of what tre group should be. As certain people started this motion and it's now grown beyond expectations it would seem it is a new beast. I have made my feelings known in weeks gone by and I sense that, that may have stirred the hornets nest a tad too. I could be wrong though. -
She looks a treat in like 3 photos and then scary in others. Just for the record

They had ample opportunity to mate. The banner was painted on the Gallowgate walkway. Was hilarious this fella complaining (there was a few). I was trying to humour him and in the end we shook hands but he was kicking off about his nephew not being able to see the players warm up a few weeks back and he had paid his money so he had the right. I agreed he had the right and the right to an opinion at that. However, I said do you not see that the atmosphere has been crap for years and what we're doing is improving it. Just as he went on to get more abusive a wife shouted over and I thought "ah here we go". She said "excuse me lad, what you're doing is f***ing fantastic" and then around a dozen people joined in. So I sarcastically stepped back and sort of gestured like "well there it is". Was a bit more to it than that but as with my experience with AO it was the "haters" being overly abusive and then complaining when they got a reaction. I'll be brutally honest here and I apologise if I upset people...but I'm f***ing sick of people who go and complain about the likes of myself or like minded fans. They don't understand what level of passion, desire and work goes into this s*** and they don't understand that we aren't trained diplomats. The abuse and s*** we take at times we just have to put up with and we accept that to a degree but sometimes we do snap. But it's sheer ignorance that we are occasionally faced with that f***s me right off. That's not to day we care any more than others' either mind. This is just our way of showing it which is my point. You can slate people for a lot of things but showing a love and desire for where their from and working towards being part of "the team" is not one of them. If you wanna see the intricacies of the game uninterrupted and it slowed down and several times then f*** off and watch it on sky. The match going fan goes to support their team and goes to enjoy the atmosphere in addition to the watching the game itself. Without people prompting an atmosphere you may as well sit at home. Through my involvement with several groups and people on this forum I understand and appreciate it takes all sorts. But I'm sick of fuckwits telling my comrades (for love of a better term) that their passion is too much. It's people like these t***s killing the game. I sit in the gallowgate and my view of the players warming up was completely spoilt yesterday. Instead I was treated to the best atmosphere all season and thoroughly enjoyed myself! Admittedly I was sceptical over the idea of GF, on the sole grounds I thought it was abit cheesy and we should 'create our own atmosphere'. I was so wrong. Absolutely class effort by all involved. Thing is mate it is us generating our own atmosphere. It's completely fan run and funded with no help from the club other than providing a place to store the flags. -

Get in. Love this. Knowing the lads got Rafa chuffed is just an absolute treat -
I genuinely think he loves it here like. Obviously because of the success and everything at Liverpool probably not as much as there but he seems to be thoroughly wrapped up in Tyneside.

Over the moon with how it's been received on here and by the likes of Benitez and Klopp. Unfortunately, some absolute tosspots complained about us blocking the view of the players coming onto the pitch which we had to deal with at half time and club officials aren't happy with the use of "liars". But this is my message from me alone: FUCK THE PEOPLE WHO DON'T GET WHAT WE'RE ABOUT FUCK THE PAPERS FUCK SKY FUCK BISHOP FUCK ASHLEY WE ARE NEWCASTLE UNITED! -

Also, I think it's WorJackie on here who does the vast majority of it all. Producing, paying and organising. He's an absolute top bloke. -

It's a good message. One that many will agree with (I hope). -

Hero Benitez like.

They should pick up a few points in the next few fixtures like. Think they'll be up around 18th before Boro' beat them and they're sent back into a tailspin.

Tbf I reckon there'd be similarly ridiculous comments if the shoe was on the other foot too. Nonetheless, it is absolutely hilarious this self-perpetuating myth that they "sent us down" and it's even more surreal that they somehow think they're anywhere near on level terms with us based on current ability. Absolute fucktards. Even to be negatively biased towards us, we're relegation CANDIDATES at best but the fact we won the league that they're in surely makes us comfortably as good as the current top 6 that are there. If you were being positively biased about them at the same time you might argue they're capable of mid table. That's being like ultimately biased and down right fucking stupid. So the fact some of them think they're anywhere near level with us is utterly obscene. We have beaten Stoke, Swansea and West Ham. All teams from around mid-table. We have lost to 2nd place (arguably due to a sending off) and have lost to two teams away from home who we beat last season at least once (twice in Brightons case). That suggests there are at least 5 teams we can compete with at the bottom and that discards the notion of Bournemouth, Palace, etc. Being down there. They claim we're deluded when in fact I think we're somewhat realistic in comparison. They're utterly shagged. Not just by financial and football terms, but by their own family. Inbreds.
