Jay Jay Sea Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Maybe this thread should sit within the'Media slag Toon' type of thread but I was listening to Steve Curry of The Daily Express (Chief Sports Writer) on Sky Sports News and his thoughts about NUFC. I can't recall word for word what he said other than "Newcastle United FC is a joke" and this was based on the fact that we'd appointed Kevin Keegan, Mike Ashley is a joke standing amongst NUFC supportes with his black 'n white top on and we are an even bigger joke if there is any truth in the rumour that we are interested in David Beckham. Does anyone out there actually concur with this chaps thoughts? Are we a complete joke? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

For such a small, joke of a club, we seem to be getting mighty BIG news coverage! It's amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I wonder what all these media people will say if this turns out to be a success? I am sure some of them will back track big style. I don't get all the stigma with Mike Ashley spending times with the fans? The guy has ploughed millions in the club if he wants to soak up the atmosphere with the rest of the fans so be it. I don't think it reflects badly on us, our chairman the head of our club is in the Directors box he is the face of the club. I can't remember too many criticisms of Matthew Harding watching the games at Stamford Brigde with the fans, infact they used to bring that up as a positive spin "man of the people" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest elbee909 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 The Daily Mail / Daily Express - practically supported the Nazis back in the 30s/40s, didn't they? They're ones to fucking talk about backing the wrong team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 I'd have thought the fat twat would be far more concerned about the size of his fucking gut. That and the fact he has to wipe the shite from around his mouth every 2 minutes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

manorpark Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Living in London, I learnt we are the Cockney-based ("national" !!!) press's (in sport particularly) favourite targets. They do not consider they ("national" media) are actually OUR media as well, at all. They are so parochially Cockney-based . . . If you compare this to how some 'people' behave in their normal day-to-day life, about other people who are bigger/better/whatever, than them? What do they do? They 'criticise' them and 'lie' about them, whenever they can. Sound familiar??? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crumpy Gunt Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 We have to accept that NUFC have provided the (Southern) Press with all the ammunition they need which ultimately makes their backslapping articles all the easier for them to write. Sadly we have an image that is totally self inflicted. Ashley now must break that trend. Personally I'd rather NUFC were the most hated Club in the country because that would mean upsetting the recognised order of things - where the 'big 4' are the be all and end all for the soft Southern wankers. Siege mentality required. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 its just annoying that the majority of stuff appearing in the nationals is bollocks, so we turn to our regional paper, and theres a monkey in there also writing bollocks.

Benwell Lad Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Sad thing for them is no one cares what they say, no one buys papers any more they're just given away free all over the place. Curry wasn't exactly made for TV either was he ? Can't understand Sky giving the fat cnut airtime really. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So hypocritical of people to say we're not a big club, yet we're always being talked about and brandished across two page spreads in the papers.
