Rocker Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I think the quote you're referring to is “The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Fucking duckegg. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even more so when the worst you're doing is investing a bit to charity every month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I'm in two minds about this. At any other club I think it's a great idea. However at Newcastle I'm not sure our fanbase is united enough for it to work. Ashley's done an excellent job of ensuring the fans are divided. It's awesome that some people are actually trying to do something though rather than just moaning on a forum. I'd like to think that everyone donating to this still actively boycott's anything to do with giving the club money though, including going to matches. Donating to this cause whilst paying to go to the game every week is a bit pointless, but I'm sure people know that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are in another league (literally ) when it comes to being spineless where their club is concerned. We may be a divided fanbase but we’ve been proactive over the years with Sack Pardew/Ashley Out and the NUST etc. organising things, as well as the brilliant efforts of Wor Flags.

Aye mate, they would put anything that involves doing anything other than sitting calling Donald a cunt on Twitter “Mag behaviour”. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 They literally sat back and did fuck all while their club dropped two leagues down and were being used by two chancers who have pocketed all their money. Ironically the one man that put his own money in and wrote off any debt so they could get new owners, they hated him ha ha. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Find it amazing that we can still criticise the fans of other clubs, or take any pleasure in other clubs having shit owners and/or getting relegated. Surely we know what all of that feels like by now, and it's very shit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take no delight in the predicament SAFC as a club has found itself in as my son is at their academy, but I have zero empathy with their fans who would rather partake more of an active interest in the demise of our own club than their own, and purely out of spite and jealousy. I’m hoping the NUST’s current initiatives will have a knock on effect at other clubs mismanaged, badly owned and ran etc, to galvanise fans across the nation to finally take a stand against bad owners and reclaim their clubs back and indeed OUR game/sport.

Gallowgate Toon Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 Who gives a flying fuck about what Sunderland think? They're going to take the piss no matter what we do, so let them crack on being shite. I've pledged. I have questions around the bigger plan etc. but fan ownership is something I've long had strong feelings about for a while, and I think there are some really good people involved in NUST who will improve/tweak this over time with the right direction from fans.

Happinesstan Posted April 9, 2021 Share Posted April 9, 2021 I trust the current crew, but there is nothing to guarantee it will be the same team in 10 years. Having £500k in the bank will attract the wrong kind of people the the board. Nobody knows what Len McCluskey will be doing in 10 years time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
