If they don’t want to be anti Ashley either that’s fine, there’s a a real opportunity to be. There’s little to put faith in club side however because it’s all of these lads backs so I would advise them not to be surprised when this kind of stuff happens.

The flags are amazing but Yorkie is right.

I envy those who take such pride in wilful ignorance...I really do it must be so much easier than actually challenging your own viewpoint regularly.

You're assuming a buzz. There's no malice intended against those in the fans groups, just against the the letter. I don't think the opinion of a random user on an internet forum should really matter to those involved unless there is an ounce of truth in it. In which case, maybe it'll be helpful in the long run. It won’t be because it’s just pisstaking. You need to learn what constructive criticism is in that case.

The fan groups are 'failing' because the drones are saying everything they do is pointless, and therefore won't take part. Yeah, so the fan groups should really make it a priority to educate the drones. The drones don't read the broadsheets. What have they been trying to do since they started? What do you think the open letter that you've just ridiculed is about? Trying to ramp up pressure by educating those further afield about the state of the club. Absolutely. How one track minded can you be not to see that's the aim? Do you honestly think its aimed at him directly in terms of getting him to spend? It's open because his shareholders, sports media. business and fans will see it.

W Quit moaning, you are getting exactly what you pay for. Your money is funding this, you know exactly where it’s going! In fairness his point is ‘if Rafa is on our side he needs to be open with us - regardless of politics’ rather than where is my money going? That’s just stupid. Of course Rafa is on our side. Question the owner where your money is going, take it up with him. Not happy? Don’t put your money into the club. I mean, it’s not as if the manager sees any of it to give YOU a decent team to watch. Be grateful you will likely be spending your money to watch PL footy next season and not Championship footy. You want an answer from Rafa? That’s it right there. It’s not that stupid is it? I mean we’d all love it if Rafa toreca strip off Ashley at this point and a lot of people will take his no comment as to carry on regardless.

Published simultaneously across three of the nationals. It will get attention which is all it is designed to do. What are you doing to fight for the future of NUFC? Another open letter is both pointless and pathetic Criticising fans who are doing something about it is worse It just isn't, is it? If you're getting upset at my post then maybe you have reservations about the letter as well cos ultimately, if you genuinely believe in the strength of the open letter then someone mocking it really shouldn't matter. I strongly believe it isn't going to make a jot of difference and my flippant post happened in part because the letter is just another example of noise and no action. People shouldn't be afraid of making criticisms of how the fan groups are going about their business. The litmus test is really what the match going fans think and well basically, the fan groups are failing. Ultimately it’s about how Mike Ashley reacts. Criticism is not valuable if it’s constructive. Yous isnt.

Of course you can but part of a collective. Mass abstinence was organised for people and it was rejected so they are back at square one. Getting press across 3 national newspapers is anything but pathetic. It’s the same thinking that criticised the banner outside his house because ‘he wouldn’t see it from the other side of the wall’ I suppose metoo was just a hashtag n all.

Published simultaneously across three of the nationals. It will get attention which is all it is designed to do. What are you doing to fight for the future of NUFC? There has been plenty of noise making in the last 6 months. Unless the fans who still go to SJP wake up and stop going, nothing will change. Down tools lads. The message is out there now! The prophet has spoken!

Everything seems too ineffective or a waste of time. Of course he’s not going to sell based on a letter or a line protest but news flash - a lot of people don’t know what’s happening outside of the NE and any iota or pressure however incremental is worth it. It doesn’t even matter if he doesn’t see it - bishop will, his shareholders. This myopic thinking is infuriating and you can stick your smilies up your arse.

People went to his home and it was going too far. Do anything like this and it’s too ineffective. Anything people do seems to be shrodingers protest.

Ronnie F. Radford looks like he's just shanked the younger version of himself here.

I’m calling a shirt pull there. Is he predicting his own sending off?

Oh poor Syrette

Peter Beardsley buried the evidence in his garden Dog dirt.

Even if its a joke, just stop it.

loz looks like the lad out the black mirror ep. Checks out.

close to home, bigger club than us, willing to spend? The big club argument only holds water provided it thinks that way - plenty of ‘smaller’ clubs have ambitions we’re not prepared to aim for or match and the UK isn’t a big place.

I suppose local lad is important in terms of you being more willing to forgive this club being an absolute shot show whilst playing for it.

Cock our hoop more like.

Aye I've been banging this drum for years, he's unbearable, way worse than any of the others. https://www.theguardian.com/football/ng-interactive/2018/may/01/david-squires-on-peter-drury-commentator-what-is-football-if-not-for-dreaming
