Both sides will act like childish dicks until this is sorted somehow, Ryder has a story about Remy thanking the fans after the Chelsea game game.

I don't think it really matters 99% of journo's write what they want anyway, regardless f what the clubs think.

I dont often pay too much attention, having not bought a paper regularly for years and years, but the Journal today had a sour look about it. 

 

The front and back pages get 'previewed' on twitter, and Mondays front page had a coloured header strip screaming that THEY DIDNT KNOW WHETHER REMY WOULD STAY!!!! and the back page main story was the same, just a blah blah blah about a situation which wont change for some time.  This is a non-story for me, in the first issue of that paper after a fine win at home.

 

Reckon it would have been all about the match if we'd been smashed by chelsea.

 

Negative stories about NUFC? It's almost as if the club have done something to piss them off...oh wait...

yeah, of course, but what do you want to see when you pick the paper up after a win?  after a week of crap results, especially.  the same paper will no doubt put themselves forward as fighting some principled cause in the name of the fans, well, dont spit in our eye like this, it doesnt affect anyone on either 'side' to throw a dumb non-story in like this.  the paper just looked small-minded today, like i say, i dont often read it.  without the current backdrop, it's the kind of article louise taylor may pop up with after a good result, and that aint a compliment

Have a lot of sympathy for his view TBH. The media (similarly in the whole press regulation debate) like to paint themselves as solely on the side of the people, when in fact they are on the side of selling as many papers as possible and keeping themselves in a job.

Surprisingly, looks like Billy may be one of the 6%.

Kriss Knights still banging on about 'drink and loud music' ffs.  And letting us know (probably again as I haven't read a word of his for years now - until five minutes ago) he's been to S.America, yawn, but also got his picture taken next to some politica grafitti (how cool is he?). Not worth reading a word he says imo.

Always makes me think of the saying "Patriotism is the last refuge of a scoundrel".

In the case of the press it's normally "being on the side of the people".

Maybe not, but I thought these were a couple of gems from that article.

 

"But we all know that if we fans arranged a meeting to discuss the width of the black and white stripes on our shirts, then six hours later, we would be wrestling each other, drunk and stubborn, in the car park. There would be carping, moaning, back biting and a separate committee set up with its own Facebook page within two days"

 

"For what it’s worth I also feel desperately sorry for the journos who cover NUFC for the local rags; for years it was OK to knock out a , “Player A calls for the team to play well against Team X” piece of a Thursday without the writer being trolled savagely by one of the perpetually pugnacious bores who haunt the paper’s message boards"

Lee Ryder has just bickered with a fan on 5 Live and told him to "do a bit more research" after he said he trusts the information he gets from places like nufc.com and independent websites more than what's written in the Chronicle.

 

:lol:

 

No way! Unbelievable cheek.

Bye bye BBC? :bluestar:

 

Plans to "inject some fun" at Newcastle United's St James' Park stadium by installing slides outside of the ground have been vetoed by the club.

 

Company NE1 announced plans in February to build two "travel accelerators" beside the car park at the stadium.

 

But the firm said the plan had now been shelved after Newcastle United, which owns the land, said it was "no longer available for use".

 

The club declined to comment.

 

Newcastle United lie ninth in the Premier League but the season has been overshadowed by some fans' unhappiness with the club's owners.

 

In October, hundreds marched through the city to protest against the way owner Mike Ashley has been running the club.

 

The slides, which were intended "to inject some fun" into Newcastle, will not be located elsewhere as they had been designed for the area around the ground, NE1 said.

 

It said it was now "moving its attention" to other areas in the city.

 

The idea was part of the "pocket park programme", designed to infuse new life into areas of the city centre which were "neglected or underused".

 

The plans were submitted to the council's planning committee earlier in the year.

 

They would have been a similar in design to ones used by commuters at Overvecht railway station in Utrecht, Netherlands.

It's not really to do with the club or the squad, it's about getting people to use the area of SJP when there's not a match on.

 

It's almost like people haven't read the article.....
