The Bruce argument is now irrelevant. You are actively supporting Ashley by giving him your money.
Nah, I'm not.
I'm not backing the owner, I am backing the manager
You are funding the owner and accepting his shitness..
So for 3 years you didn't back Rafa?
The owner was given an opportunity to change how he did things. Rafa had given us all a bit of hope again. He was showing us the way things could be if he was supported, and presented that plan to the c***s in charge. Instead Ashley and Charnley decided to reject Rafa's plan, sack him off and return to their previous plan of doing and spending the absolute bare minimum to stay in the premier league and maximise the exposure of Sports Direct and associated entities. By appointing Steve Bruce they've shown us that they have literally zero ambition for the club beyond staying in the league and finishing 17th.
It has now reached the stage that if you buy a season ticket you're effectively saying that you're alright with Newcastle United being nothing more than a marketing strategy for one of the biggest c***s in the UK. You're buying into how he runs our football club. You're choosing to gloss over the fact that he has systematically destroyed everything that was ever good about supporting our football club.
This isn't our club any more. Stop pretending it is, and stop giving the c***s your money
I agree with all of that apart from the 'If you buy a season ticket you're effectively saying you're alright with Newcastle United being nothing more than a marketing strategy'
Sorry but that's bollocks, you can want an owner out but still go to games, not having that.
I'm not happy with how the club is being run, ofcourse I'm not, im as p*ssed off as anyone that they didn't do enough to keep Rafa.
But just because you still want to go to games, it doesn't mean that you're supporting Ashley.
Supporters shouldn't be made to feel guilty just because they want to go games and actually support the team.
If you buy a season ticket you are absolutely complicit and happy with the way Ashley runs the club. You are enabling it.
There is literally no other way of looking at it. Apart from delusion. You are deluding yourself.
Looks like we'll have 45k+ deluded supporters next season then?
,
Yep, sadly. Maybe one day they'll wake up and realise supporting this club while Ashley remains in charge is a total waste of time and money.
