Big Geordie Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 I would have gone, but with cash being tight and things the way the are at the club at the moment, I'll make do with watching on Sky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Wonder what kind of crowd will turn up, many ST holders give these games a miss and a high percentage of charvers and kids get in, could be fun Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 I know, was trying to make light of our team on the pitch. I'm going to give this one a miss I think, will sit in and watch it in the house or in a pub. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mowen Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 I've got a feeling the League Cup game against Pompey was our lowest attendance in a competitive game since reaching the premiership.. about 26k. Reckon we'll break that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

abcdefg Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Early League cup game, it would be barely half full anyway let's face it. Not planning to go, not for a protest, just because I can't be arsed. I don't court misery (it finds me anyway). Might change my mind and go anyway, but my feeling is no. Sod's law states we'll batter them when I decide not to go, but that's all good. As the chant goes, I'll stay at home, watching The Bill. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Logic Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Boycoutt!! We've ripped the piss out of that banner but the more I see that spelling the more I think that it wasn't a mistake. Am I giving them too much slack? I think it was deliberate, just not very good. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 I'd go because I'm used to a bit of masochism supporting Newcastle, but I'm at work until 8 so can't make it. Though given the current situation, I'm not exactly devastated that the decision to stop away has been taken out of my hands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toptoon Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 I don't understand the point of not going now? He says he's got the message, what would you be trying to achieve by not going? He has reportedly asked for over £400m for us. No one will give him that but he'll stick it until he gets what he wants and that could take years. With 50k in the ground, he'll be getting cash in to hold the stance. A low crowd will hit him in the pocket and with the team performance what it is (no confidence with no leadership at all) we'll drop behind 4th bottom and with the prospect of a relegation, loss of Sky cash, sponsorship dropping off and the threat of a massive number not renewing for next season, his price will drop to an amount where someone will take the punt on us. If you look at the programme, you'll see the sponsors pulling away from shirt sponsorship etc already. The guy who sponsors Viduka's shirt was called 4 times last week to take on additional sponsorship. He refused and threatened to pull the plug on his current deal unless they backed off. We need things getting tight for Ashley to cut and run. I think you're over estimating your importance to the club, in financial terms. Think your missing the point Eldiablo. If one or two do not go Ashleys not going to be very out of pocket. I'm not going either and if 30,000 like us don't go, then the club will be devalued bit by bit. Ashley asking for £400m+ is a complete piss take of the highest order and if people can't see Ashley for who he really is now there is no hope for them. I say boycott in order to devalue the club and therefore the amount Ashley can reasonably charge. If he starts losing money he'll want to cut and run quicker.
