Village Idiot Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Can you explain me what's the deal with the renaming? Is Newcastle seeing extra coin from it (it's MA's company afterall so I doubt it)? I have read that's mostly and "ad" for other companies to to get a sponsor that actually pays for it.

Jill Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 My seat shamefully empty. Think any protest could benefit from more local coverage though, spoke to loads of people before the game who had no idea anything was happening as they don't go on here/other forums/facebook all the time.

I'm sure if we continue this at every home game, then things will kind of start to snowball more people will start to sing and the press will run with it. I think the songs need to be cleaned up so the TV can run with the story as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

My comment was directed at who you were questioning - Ashley apologist. It's amazing that people are still just sitting back and letting this goon, steam roller them. The good thing about today was it's just the start, and what a start. The eyes of the media are well and truly on to us after today. Eventually even the apologist will get caught up as this whole protest builds and builds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest michaelfoster Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Oh I agree with you. My comment was directed at who you were questioning - Ashley apologist. I stood up when they were singing Stand up for St James Park as everyone else did. I think the protests outside the ground were full of chavs wanting media attention, and you wonder why we look like a bunch of tw*ts on Sky. I also think the chants inside of the ground should of waited till after the game and everyone should of put 100% effort into supporting the players, not 75% supporting the players & 25% Ashley out chants (what happened to the mass sit in btw, job well done there) The Ashley rapist banner was childish and cringeworthy, bringing in your dirty bed sheets with Ashley out is not going to make him want to leave, he was probably just laughing tbh. Its funny that if your not threatening to boycott Ashley and call him all the names under the sun your labeled an Ashley Apologist, i want Ashley to leave so we can move on but im skeptical on Barry Moat as he comes accross like he doesnt have a pot to piss in and i hope NUST get their hands nowhere near the club, as it will go tits up.

Superior Acuña Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 I went to Milburn reception after the game. It's true that a lot were charvers and most were very young. At least they were doing something - why is it only the youths? You'd think they'd be least bothered. I thought the stand-up/sit-down chants were good. There were some I didn't join in with about Ashley dying, and Shearer in. Also didn't like Peterbrough players getting stick, but overall, glad they were there. Started at reception, then suddenly people started running up towards where the cars leave. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pav Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Also for anyone still in the ground when the banner was took etc, were the chants loud? Seemed decent up there since the place was empty and all the noice was just bouncing around the empty stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 It's easy to attack others for protesting (particularly youngsters) when you aren't prepared to do anything yourself. What is it with some folk? Customers and not supporters, IMO. Content to watch whilst the club is pulled down around them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was still a mixed crowd but alot of kids. Can't really say they were there to be on TV, there wasnt any cameras around by the time I'd made it down from the LC yet all the kids were still there. Cringed at some of the stuff they came out with but at the end of the day I'd take that over nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im going to most home games ffs, im also got tickets for Barnsley next month to support the lads. Some people need to get their priorities right 1. Support the lads for 90 mins with minimal protesting/anti ashley chanting 2. Do your protesting after the game Why you judging me for not going to protest after the game when you said earlier that you went straight home, at least i went to see what was happening.

Big Geordie Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Foster - I went to the protest before the game, and headed home straight after. Two reasons, am not well and I wanted to see the bairn before she went to bed. I did my bit today. I'm just bemused by the amount of apathy towards the situation that there is out there. Too many people who might whinge to their mates, but when push comes to shove they take the buggering off Ashley with no protest. That's whats wrong.
