Yup just don't get wanting us to go down. It's stupidity. Ashley will still be here milking the advertising and parachute payment for a while yet

 

The advertising loses all its value when it's not on TV every week.

 

Perhaps. Championship is on tv a lot too and lower league status didn't stop him covering Oldham and Rangers stadiums in his tacky signs.

 

No one will pay what Ashley wants for the club plus repay loan when we are in the PL nevermind the Championship. Let's stop the wishful thinking. It's not Gonna happen and not worth wishing a relegation on

Stupid to want relegation....with this team we wont get back up for a long time. Surely best to stay up ....then worry about the situation.

 

Hardly stupid. Honestly what is the fucking point of us being in the PL? What's the point? We're in for an endless cycle of shit-eating-shit with no end in sight while in this division. There's literally nothing good that can come from it. The league? Club's content with scraping by with as little effort and investment as possible, results and playing style be damned. Cups? Nah fuck those too, no money to be had.

 

Getting fucking tired of people thinking the PL is the end-all, be-all of football.

What's the point of it in the championship? You are suggesting there is a point of going in to the division where you are playing to get in to the division you want to get out of. May as well give up completely

If you accept that Mike's bottom line is making as much as possible while simultaneously spending as little as possible (which it exactly what his bottom line is), relegation will hurt him. It'll hurt the club too, but honestly who gives a shit about anything associated with this empty husk of a club at this point? You need chemo to kill a cancer.

Staying up = some hope    down = none

 

Hope for f***ing WHAT?

 

Hope not to see 11 worse cloggers starting for us.

Bang on. :thup: Can't see how anyone can have found any enjoyment watching us these past few years. Literally anything has to be better than this.

Even if Ashley never leaves I'd honestly just rather have us relegated and disappear into the lower leagues rather than remain in our current state as a constant reminder of how this club that I used to love has been turned into a complete travesty.

Those that think Ashley will leave if we get relegated again need a check. He is laughing all the way. Knowing that the crowds will be just as big every week with less expenditure and a fire sale to boot. Until someone steps in with a decent offer for the club he will stick. He's making money and will continue to make money from us.

He'll make a hell of a lot less in the Championship.

 

The way he runs this football club is completely and unequivocally antithetical to how a successful football club is run. Newcastle will never have success under Ashley unless he does a complete 180. It's just not tenable in the modern game.

Been at Gateshead Beer Festival today and met up with mate (Geordie) who was out on stag do with large group of mainly Mackems. Generally civilised conversation especially as I pre-empted any "you're shit" talk by spelling out how we now purely exist to fund Ashley.

 

But then one of them mentioned the last time we won something.

 

"50something wasn't it?"

 

"Er no, 1969, Fairs Cup"

 

Cue unadulterated bullshit.

 

"Whey that doesn't count"

 

"Even UEFA don't recognise that marra!"

 

"That's a Mickey Mouse Cup!"

 

Morale of the story: even Mackems who seem rational have a massive chip on their shoulders. Fucking helmets.

As if mackems have even a semblance of a clue about the merits of European football.

 

You should have seen their little faces when I started telling the about all the European trips I've been on. :lol:

I still can't see you lot going down. You only need one more win, although Carver doesn't seem to helping matters with his meltdowns. Poor leadership. The last thing the crew of a sinking ship need to see is the captain running around in a state of blind panic.

 

Our only hope is Hull go back to being absolute dogsh*t and we pick up at least another 4 points. I can't see it but there's always a glimmer of light after what happened last year.

Beat Leicester and you're safe. Simple as that imo.

Is this a reverse hex you are trying or something? We only need 1 win? We haven't looked like winning a point for 8 games and our 'manager' has slagged off most of our players in public. The only way Nufc aren't getting relegated is if the teams below us don't win any points. They are fighting for their lives. Our team gave up completely in February.

It's all about Sunderland v Leicester and, considering Leicester's form and the mackems' awful form against poor teams, it's not a nailed-on 3 points. They still need another shock, which tbf could definitely happen. Everton are no great shakes.
