in a summer of change, in a summer of clubs moving forward, in a summer of players and managers calling it quits and call time on their involvement in football, we are absolutely going backwards and have this dimwit in the club getting involved in thinking he can outdo some of the best managers in the world right now..

 

We have seen Man Utd appoint Moyes

Martinez at Everton

Mourinho at Chelsea and Abrahmovic actually making a huge u-turn to bring him back

 

we saw the greatest manager in English football retire

Jupp Hynckes win the Champions League and retire

We saw players hanging up their boots because they knew their time was up, Scholes, Beckham, Owen, Neville, Harper (left the club)

 

and what do we do? Stick with Pardew and then appoint this old, mentally ill guy as a director of football..Not sure if I can take anymore of this s***..

He's going to make a point of signing lower league players to prove his genius. Why get a good freebie when you can splash a million on some unproven bloke from Barnet? He'll at that price we can buy a team full of them and reduce the wage bill. We'd also be in a good position for the start of next season in the Championship.

I'm so apathetic about the fixture list today, the majority of fans around the country are looking forward to it I just can't bring myself to be happy with football given the situation we are in.

 

I can take Pardew staying, as much as I wanted him out, I gave him credit for the 5th placed finished, blamed him for the near miss last season there is an argument to stick with him. Kinnear however, just makes no sense at all.

 

What player would want to sign for us given this tool around? The only hope we have is that a player sees us as a big enough step up to endure this creep.

Lee Ryder thinks this will have all the fans singing Pardews name now in support of him over JFK  :lol:

Just as you think that we've hit rock bottom Llambias resigns and we pull out of a perfectly decent transfer.

 

Wonder what tomorrow brings? Has to be a sale of a player.

I'm kind of not surprised to see Llambias go - but it's still a shock. I think Pardew will walk next and in the coming days. He's been very quiet and I imagine is seeking legal advice. It's Keegan v Wise all over again (although not to the same extent) Ashley must be laughing his tits off.

The post that was quoted was rough around the edges, but the content was correct. Ashley knows people will turn up regardless, which is why he pleases himself. A bigger message would be if people started staying away from games, but unfortunately I think there is too much apathy inside St James. In that people will be unhappy, but won't vent their displeasure - probably for fear of what happened at the Hull game, after Keegan walked. Civil war almost broke out amongst our ranks after that game.

 

Could always be that Ashley has worn people down and that the more vocal (in the main) are the ones who don't go to games, such as myself.

 

I think you'll find, BG, that the fans over 45 will be the ones most likely to boycott - a large proportion have witnessed both bad and good times before SJH and KK took over the club and then afterwards.

A large percentage of younger fans will not remember those days and in any case, Ashley has been very successful in brainwashing quite a few fans into thinking a mid-table place is where we should be - no better.

It has always been this way really, because fans who went in the 50s when we were FA Cup kings stopped going after the shenanigans with Eastham etc at the start of the 60s and the usual board interference at that time.

Noticeable that many of those posting in the Chron and Journal, vowing to scrap their STs, were older fans.

 

Agreed. Like you, I lived through the 'board wars' and when I speak to others (particularly the younger supporters) about the danger we have found ourselves in during Ashley's tenure, I get called a Keeganite and an old fuddy-duddy. They will find out the hard way.

i've turned the corner now, it's sunk in that we are the comedy sitcom club, you couldn't write this shite

 

We are never going to win anything under any of this regime, thats owner to players, so i'm going to embrace this for what it is and have a good laugh.

 

    honestly if you are looking in from afar at our club, it's funny as fuck, its unbeliveable, its quality viewing its a nightmare we should be on jeremy kyle.

 

  all i know is i'm waiting for the next press conference with baited breath, god knows whats going to happen

@LeeMarshall9

Off to meet the @nufctrust to discuss the last 48hrs before another to discuss the next @NUFCFansUtd meeting. No hiding. Lots to talk about.

 

Fair play.
