They aren’t mutually exclusive

Unfortunately you'll always have people/fans who will have swallowed his bullshit and think he's saved the club, sadly for them they'll never see the reality. Lot of good points being made but the amount of sheep within our support right now is just sad to be honest. I give up after over 40 year of being a season ticket holder because I was not going to have that fat cunt taking the piss out of me and the club a moment longer. My view if I can do it after the years of support I gave then anyone can. Twenty year ago something would have been done but not a chance nowadays. The club is at its worst stage since the McKeag days and even then he had an excuse not being loaded. Now this fat cunt is taking the piss out of the manager, the players and the support whist laughing his cock off and decimating the club. But will we see the support unite and really make the point hard, to the point and at every level- not a hope in hell. Everyone is making fantastic points and suggesting great things to get rid of him. You just know though as has been said, a hardcore will just think Ashley is right, as mental as that seems despite all the evidence to the contrary staring them in the face. I very much doubt there are many, if any, that think Ashley is in any way "right". Plenty will still attend/support, but they are doing in spite of Ashley, rather than in support of him. Whilst silently doing it...I shouldn't knock because everyone's heart is in the right place but it's mental cognitive dissonance.

Have had similar rankles with a much more sound set of Cov fans before. It's not a race to the bottom and he's clearly a monumental tit.

Bite into some realism Richard, you are an irrelevant, whining cheat who managed to fuck over a career in credible journalism with all the knowledge of NUFC that one of your average knuckle nits possesses.

I hope you’re right. He needs to act completely contrary to pardews enabling.

It's just such a shame that they don't get it at all. I remember listening to it after we best palace at home last season and they were legit saying we were going to finish top 6. It's great that they're positive about the club, but surely they should be using their podcast to highlight how shit things are at the moment and the need for coordinated fan action to try and apply some pressure on Ashley. Meh I like listening to it and they often have a decent balance but its the same problem; they all socialise through it and I think Alex even alluded to his life being better with the NUFC games than without it and you can appreciate why they want to keep upbeat. I get that. Still, it's all well and good but they know that all this talk of building and being stronger with Rafa is pretty moot. The one lad on it was more vocal about it. They aren't money grabbers and I don't want to misrepresent but they have a paid platform for the pod now and that brings with it a certain politics to consider. But only fans pay them, nobody else. And a very small minority I imagine, the main podcast is still free. Yeah thats fine. I don't subscribe but they are clearly making big things about becoming a bit of a broadcast network for the wider fanbase and I can see why that would have them reticent to put out 6 pods a week with the kind of agenda the likes of some of the protest groups advocate.

When the players protest it’s probably a sign

Good God we criticise the mackems but there's some magnificent specimens on that clip FFS Absolute brain dead brainwashed apathetic idiots FFS totally thought that was Beardo. No chicken wrap

Taught farage didn’t it? Proper cunt factory by the sounds.

Yeah I'm really excited for our game & seeing the new lads get their first run-outs at St James' despite the best efforts of our owner to zap the spirit and feel good factor from the club. That said I won't be buying tickets or anything else. Some of the new players I like the look of but I’ll not pretend there’s anything being built here.

Still loads looking forward to the excitement of match day somehow

If not this something abysmal is going to happen

Hoolietastic

Even given our bias, it’s apples and oranges mate.

We've been saying that for nearly 10 years and yet here we are still second guessing his ownership of NUFC. I know right. I mean we jumped the shark a long time ago so literally nothing surprises or shocks me but being this 'frugal' is the only logic I can apply to the madness. Whilst, knowing he gets a kick out of getting his own way.

Oh mark my words, his extraction will be of the sepukku rather than surgical variety. Ripping the plaster off indeed.

I do think he's (MA) got some sort of exit plan at the back of his mind these days. The non-spend going to pay off the debt etc.

What's the story there, btw? Same as arsenal...stadiums cost a fortune to build in London. A genuine reason...how novel.

Jesus Christ in case you haven’t noticed, this isn’t a normal situation, the club has been hi-jacked by a parasite who is abusing it for his own personal (and spiteful) agenda and is relying on us to still go the games to prop up the pretence of us still resembling anything like a ‘football club’. It’s not about negativity, it’s aboit saving the club from destruction! Saving the club from destruction? Are you kidding me? Nee wonder the mackems I know laugh their cock off. What an absolute load of shite. My father in law is 76 and said to me if he didn't go because he wasn't keen on the owner or the transfer policy or the colour of the strip or that we sold Macdonald / Beardley / Gascoiogne (delete as applicable) then he would have went to about 3 seasons in 60 years. What would you say to him? Or my 18 year old who has know nothing other than Ashley? Sorry Son, you can't go? Bollocks. For one, and because you keep mentioning them for some reason. They can get fucked. They've watched their club go from laughing stock moment to the next without so much as an excuse me and some of them spent more vocal effort defending the likes of Adam Johnson. Taking our cues on expectations on that basis is a non starter.

Wondered when that would come up.

If you go the match you’re cunt and can’t criticise If you choose not to go you’re a cunt and can’t criticise. It’s almost as if some people miss the point/issue at hand entirely and can only come at things from their own myopic viewpoint?

It's the height of fucking ignorance. Loaded, morally bankrupt crook casting broad stroke bullshit judgements on what paying, hardworking blue collar punters should expect for a kings ransom out of their wages and the time they give every weekend. Who the fuck do these people think they are? Honestly. Fat hippoheaded no mark.

Oof. Cop that gibbon mitts

The new shirts and their branding can do one quite frankly, playing on heritage and successful eras whilst the club tries to carry itself like nothing of the sort. Same with it’s members gifts last year. It’s one long slap in the face
