BlueStar Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Fair enough if they were voting somebody out of a committee but the man owns the club ffs. So did Hicks and Gillett, they were still forced out by fan pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

loki679 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 -£5m net spend per season over the last 5 seasons. Even if you take out Carroll we've spent a net average of £2m per season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So did Hicks and Gillett, they were still forced out by fan pressure. Minor issues like several court cases, imminent financial meltdown/administration and the club being forcably sold from under them were slightly more important than a few nasty songs from the Kop mind.

It can't possibly get any worse than this,ey? Relegation you say.... Been there before. I'd say make Ashley's life as miserable as possible. At this point, he is the one in danger of loosing the most. The club is well lost anyway... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a shocking stat Wasn't there a statement by the club days after promotion on the official website though where it said the aim of the club was not to spend more than its outgoings, develop younger/cheaper players and sell at a profit, and aim to finish around top 10? That was 3 years ago and I'm not sure what's changed since then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledGeordie Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 There has to be a tipping point though surely? If the football is dour like it is now and people start to walk away because that's combined with a criminal lack of ambition at board level. Alright it might not be a mass walk out but the tide surely will start to turn. It's clear he's not bothered one iota about the fans, the region or how the team does but I just can't see how that can last. If theres no impetus to push the team on whatsoever and now that the above has become apparent then the enjoyment and hope has been removed from the team. Surely people will ask themselves, well what's the point? I'm hardly a mode for fan movement but I would've gone to West Ham and Fulham. Right now I'm partly disinterested and partly deciding to vote with my feet by not going. Just my stance anyway, each to their own ofcourse. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bimpy474 Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I truly believe finishing 5th has clouded peoples feelings towards Ashley and Pardew. That will disappear this season though, i've no doubt about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimmymag Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 Anyone giving Ashley money either directly or indirectly need to have a serious word with themselves. They are only perpetuating the misery that the fat one is inflicting on us, and the only way to put an end to it is hit his bottom line. It's the only language he understands. I still care deeply about the club, but the heart, soul, tradition and history have been ripped out of the club with Ashley at the helm. My advice is stop going to games, stop buying NUFC merchandise and cancel TV sport subscriptions. That's what I've done, and so have many others, and more will come to their senses in time.

TheGuv Posted August 25, 2013 Share Posted August 25, 2013 I'm already looking forward to cancelling my st in February! Even if we're in the top 6 my decision won't change. I'd never ever have felt like that a few years ago. I can hardly muster an excited 'GO ON!' in attack anymore ffs.
