I thought that as well -
Tony Gale commentating "the Sunderland end is half empty already".

Yeah he talks garbage Bit harsh on Neesy that.
-
'Doing' maybe
-
spot on Neesy
-
Probably the most positive thing I have heard from him If you believe that the secret footballer is Dave Kitson then he talks a lot about Pardew and most of it us quite revealing.

Beardsley was a great player but my opinion of him as a person couldn't be much lower...all he cares about is maintaining his own overly-comfortable life-style. Still, he has his cross to bear...MRS Beardsley.. Yes I remember a few people saying she was a dragon when they lived in Hexham in the 80s

sorry I meant derogatory speech about us

You may not have noticed but players who have come to us with a mackem connection always seem to get better treatment from us than anybody with a connection to us gets from a lot of your fans. I genuinely don't see it. Aren't Johnson and Colback both Newcastle fans? As long as the stuff on the pitch is right then I doubt anyone cares. You don't see it..? Were you alive when Venison and Bracewell were in our promotion side and welcomed from Day 1..? We also had Montgomery as GK coach for a few years, and if you go back to the 80s there was Alan Brown on loan who was very popular and Joe Harvey signed Stan Anderson in the 60s... Incidentally nearly ALL of these players thought NUFC was a better club because of the fans.... Wasn't there a story doing the rounds a while ago about Bracewell giving a speech at a mackem players wedding not long after he joined us?

It's not quite the same thing as using a child's ticket though. Apparently she accompanies two minors, so if she couldn't go they couldn't go presumably. Look at it this way too: if this was an able bodied person who had passed on their ticket to another able bodied person (for example one parent to the other) to accompany their Toon mad children to the match, because they couldn't go themselves, would anybody have any objection to that? Presumably passing on your season ticket to anyone else is against T&C's anyway? So what's the issue here then? The fact a disabled person's ticket is a tenner cheaper than an able bodied's, and the club is losing out on a tenner as a one off to a group of loyal fans, one of whom even worked for the club in the past? I`d do the same, have done in the past (Used my sons student discount season ticket)but I knew that if I got nabbed they wouldn't just grin, pinch my cheek & call me a cheeky monkey. She got rumbled, simple as that. So you would be OK with them taking your season ticket and selling your seat of to somebody else even if there was half of the home games left, also effectively cancelling your bairns' season tickets because they can't go unaccompanied. And you wouldn't think it was harsh in the slightest? Totally agree. The scrambling of moral high ground on here is laughable at times. I wonder what these people would say if it was their disabled mother who wasn't going and offered them the ticket? "Oh no mother, I couldn't possibly take that ticket, I am not disabled, therefore I would be taking such liberties as the club would be down a whole £3.50 on that ticket. I am quite disgusted in you for offering me it, and willfully trying to have me break the law in such shocking circumstances. I don't care if the kids can't go now, I have ridiculously high moral standards I must never step from". Or would you just say "Aye ok, I will take them along" Yep, too much of the Thatcher's children approach here. I'm alright jack, fuck everyone else. And what a crass generalisation from the disabled supporters association. This may have been the only time she's done it, that doesn't mean she's like anyone who does it on a regular basis.

Thats completely stupid and pretty much not going to happen. How would you keep track ffs? We only have that article to go by, for all we know he used it more than once hence the clubs reason for taking so long to look into it. Either way its the rules harsh or not. No, it's not stupid. As far as I'm aware the same stewards stay in the same positions throughout the season. Wouldn't be that difficult. If the club reply telling us that she's done it a few times then fair enough, but if sh'e telling the truth then they're idiots. Love all of this 'it's the rules' stuff. Yeah let's f*** another fan over because it's the rules, nowt like a bit of compassion eh? So does this idea of stewards keeping a mental total of all fans in their section and how often they sit there only work in the disabled section? Plus the fact you advocate 3-4 times before merely a warning, f***ing ludicrous idea but hey i am sure you offer such charity in your own business..... What about those missusing child ticket or whatever? Do they get the same leyway? What harm is there to them allowing the kids to go with someone who is able bodied? If you talking ludicrous then your scenario using the kids ticket fits the bill. Nowhere near the same. Im pretty sure it would be easy to keep your eye on the disabled section, it's not exactly fox P seat 88 in the upper tier is it? We had the same steward for a couple of seasons. I was applying rules to be 3-4 times man, I just plucked it out of thin air. If it was my business (going on what we currently know), I'd commend the steward, let the woman know it's not ideal but will be overlooked and tell her to contact the club if it happens again. 1964 - hopefully they will pile on the pressure, but it won't last as soon as they're allowed access again it will soon die off.

It's about £380, so £190 each if carer pays - £10 per game bitches - if they had rang the club and explained they would have sorted it. It is no different to Adult using kids seat although I do know of people (Mates) that have used a friends disabled ticket no probs, just going in and finding a seat elsewhere You're a special one, aren't you? They shouldn't have even bothered unless they've seen the same person there 3-4 times. Then issue a warning. Fucking idiots.

Exactly. I would want to find out what has gone wrong first, not just 'get him in''
-
We all just want a change. Pardew just saps all the energy out of me. He's a kill joy. I want to have a manager who doesn't get on my tits. I envy the f*** out of all the Pardew supporters. How it must feel to have faith in the w*** stain. Don't get me wrong mate I'm no Pardew supporter.

You have to laugh at the 'let's get him in remarks'. No-one has any idea what has been going on. Clearly something has gone wrong there, think about it Swansea have been fairly sensible with managers why would they all of a sudden brain fart? There's been something going on behind the scenes and I wouldn't be surprised if some of that Mirror article is true as it would fit with their performances this season.
