Support is doing what’s right. Refusing to tolerate and fund the whims of a toxic bully is right no matter how effective you think it is. Thick and thin is all when and good when you’re taking sporting chance. We don’t deal in that.

Shut it, tit.

For a lot of people you are asking them to admit that their weekends are built around a complete waste of time in logical terms. Easier for me because I live miles away and it’s more apparent it’s a waste of my time and money. We’re just starting to grapple with that on a scale that matters. I understand the feeling behind ‘he’ll not stop me’ if not the logic.

There was talk of cheap sports redirect tees being done for a couple quid and sold at cost to wear at games.

Various: Mike Ashley in talks with Sheikh Khaled bin Zayed Al Nehayan

Lets hope. At the very least he's shone a massive negative spotlight on himself. -
This is nonsense. You don't just fight everyone who disagrees with you unless they are an outright problem. If 75-90 are against we've fucking had it.

I'll eat him for free. -
I have to say this sounds like a terrible idea for reasons you’ve alluded to.

Rafa has been a cult on here for some time. It’s a combination of our situation and his ability which in light of the situation is incredible he’s still here (so all situation really) He’d be under far more scrutiny if we had a proper owner I’m sure, but it seems you can’t say anything negative as all you’ll get is that it’s the situation and Ashley is to blame...which is hard to argue with as he has created it, but sometimes you can do more with the hand you’ve been dealt rather than just keep blaming the dealer. Rafa has been screwed left right and centre any fool should know and see it. I get the 'just keep blaming the dealer' argument, and the obvious and perfectly correct his squad isn't good enough because of Ashley, so what can he do. My point and i reckon others on here is, even if Rafa had spent £100m i would still comment on a sub, the timing of one or a certain tactic or approach, a poor starting pick etc as that's football. And what i love to talk about, scrutinise and study more than anything else. Well, that's ultimately being spoilt by him n all. I suppose hyper sensitivity is partly from this bullshit narrative attacking Rafa and people want to defend him to the hilt. Also I'm finding it hard to see the relevance of the on pitch stuff so everything is viewed through the other lens. Sad but there you go.

Going in late for the next TV game should be where they go next imho. Obviously the cameras would pick up on all the empty seats, but the match would have to be delayed for health and safety reasons which would impact on TV schedules. Keep doing that on televised games, and Sky/BT would stop putting us on the telly which deprives Ashley of his advertising. Walk in on 11 minutes to signify the number of years he has been there. It'd be a great start towards boycott if we could. I'd knock minutes significance on the head tbh. Just stick to 15 as a benchmark.

These methods have worked in the recent past - difference is this season the manager has been supported even less, the politics have been laid even more bare with tensions whilst other clubs have strengthened not only in personnel terms but also through the drive of being first season in the premier league, boards and fans pulling in the same direction and just being bothered about being an actual football club. You can't ignore that context - it's far more of a factor than what sub could have been done or a formation.

Seems to lack guile. Jury's out for me.

Worse than last season? When similarly some people couldn’t see a worse squad in the big bad PL. Others have strengthened. We’ve stood still.

Remember when this was done before? Was is shite. Another level this. Class.

Get it organised then. How am I going to start that alone when I live 250 miles away now too. The likes of the magpie group could easily out that out. Meet outside the gate and up Stowell street at 2.30pm half hour protest and don't go in the ground until 3.15pm Have you submitted it to them? -

Bishop Depends on what kind of man he is, he would never cut him loose because he can’t financially. If he was a true friend though he must surely be telling him, Mike, ge rid of NUFC. Doing that would relegate him and his business dealings back to the pages of the FT and rooms of courts and make him in red top parlance, yesterday’s fish and chips wrapping paper. Yesterday’s news! If his PR is anything to go by he’s a fossil in waiting anyway. KP ot MA?
