I think 40 people is pretty respectable given the circumstances. As Stiffy has pointed out, and I think as the reaction to NUST’s non-involvement shows, our fans love the idea of a protest just as long as it is exactly what they want and doesn’t actually require them themselves having to do anything. People would be shitting themselves in much the same way had they actually got involved in yesterday. Out of curiosity how many people kicking off about NUST on here actually bothered their backside to go to the protest?

Maybe they could’ve done but I think the protest is pretty inconsequential now. It doesn’t make sense to get so wound up about it. I’m usually pro-direct action, and I’ve always been a big advocate and participated in the stuff we’ve done in and around the stadium against Ashley. This is totally different though. It’s a legal matter. I don’t think it’s that important.

I have some degree of sympathy with NUST. The reason we’ve had dozens of fan groups over the last decade is that - speaking frankly - our supporters are hysterical children who flip their lid the moment any one of these groups does something that they don’t agree with to the letter. There’s no small amount of it on display in this thread for example. Someone needs to do the boring stuff. Someone needs to try and liaise with the club, try to get them to improve the match day experience etc. I assume that since the takeover is now in the courts, far beyond the stage where a fan group could influence the outcome, they’ve decided they’re better off focusing on that stuff than wasting time having a massive paddy.

I must be blind. I think the home shirt is canny. Grandad collar and big stripes are a winner for me. The only thing spoiling it is the eyesore of a sponsor.

I’ve seen their viewing figures. I refuse to believe hundreds of people have been asking for this.

It’s definitely Raylor he’s referring to. Stevie T was more likely to lick a TV screen than smash it.

How anyone can look at his track record - not just in our takeover(s) - and think he’s anything other than a total gobshite I do not know. Dodgy as fuck.

I’d take a bleb of pre-cum.

Give your head a wobble you silly bugger. The problem with Stone Cold Steve Daftcunt isn’t that he has the same views of Tommy Robinson. He probably doesn’t. It’s that he’s such a shameless self publicist he think it’s fine to platform the dickhead.

Is this the old legal strategy of making as much of a nuisance of yourself as possible in the hope the other side get sick/run out of money?

It’s mental is what it is. I’m generally quite positive about the takeover happening eventually, but I think Keith is a massive self publicising bullshitter. In which thread do I belong? Or do I have to split my time equally between the two threads? If you can’t handle reading opinions that might not exactly align with your own the internet might not be for you.

Let’s not go full RTG.

It’s a Super Soaker full of Fukushima water. At first you think you’re just wet, but give it a decade or two and boom - thyroid cancer.

I could make my peace with gay murdering despots but I draw the line at Tories.

Robinsons announced as our new global fruit cordial partner.

I’m just bitter because I’m gluten intolerant.

Not necessarily on here, but there are definitely chunks of NUFC Twitter that are going to be very disappointed when it turns out NDM is actually just really into sourdough.

“Nick DeMarco is sending me coded takeover messages via the medium of bread” is De Clerambault as fuck lads. It does not reflect well on our fan base that this is widely accepted as fact.

Definitely. Perez gave the game away yesterday. They’re scrambling around and if the governing bodies hold their nerves and sanction them as threatened they’ll lose their nerve.

A fear of being left behind? It just takes one or two of the clubs to pull out and the entire thing will fall over IMO.

I’m not sure how they can. The governing bodies are in damned if they do, damned if they don’t territory but giving any sort of meaningful ground on the SL is signing their own death warrants.

Parody account lads.

Yellow Metro line. Just hovering over Simonside as we speak.

I’d like to be optimistic about this, but I just see it as Ashley grabbing the opportunity to lay off staff and use the ownership question as a convenient excuse.

Not if we’re going to keep trying to turn him to a wing back. I think he’s good going forward - decent turn of pace and probably one of the better crossers of the ball at the club. I’d keep him around providing the dickhead in the dugout doesn’t expect him to spend most of the match defending.
