Jill Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Any idea how did the post-match sit in / protest at SJP go? Seemed champion from where I was sitting. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 From where I was sitting if half the fans had the bollocks these kids did then it would have been far more effective. Too many people too happy to sit back and whinge in the boozer. You live once, stand by what you believe in. Well done to those lads. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

afar Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I'm not sure I'm 100% in agreement with their statement. I think you have to leave something in there for the remote chance that Ashley actually means what he said on Sunday and we suddenly start acting like a proper football club. It's highly unlikely for sure and they are right to be sceptical but painting yourselves into a corner leaves you little wiggle room should the landscape change. They've effected change already, proof of this is in Ashley actually coming out and speaking to the media. So the campaign has already been a success, if this leads to a more invested and engaged owner, even if that owner is Ashley then I personally would embrace that. Understand them not wanting to compromise their position though and it's completely their prerogative how they want to run their campaign, but I don't necessarily think I would approach it in terms of absolutes like that.

Newintoon Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Great to see him rattled tbh. exactly this, he had to come out and do an interview, do he want to, did he fuck he, he had to. The sad thing is its worked people have fallen for his bullshit once again just look at the polls on the chronicle, some gullible ppl follow our team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I think you have to leave something in there for the remote chance that Ashley actually means what he said on Sunday and we suddenly start acting like a proper football club. This summer's the real test IMO, or if the deals aren't there then we should see what happens in January. The ship's sailed man, they're completely correct to slaughter him in the manner they have done. They're a protest group called Ashley Out, not Please Change The Way You've Run The Club Ashley, We Have Full Faith In Your Intentions For Doing So.

Wullie Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The idea of anybody giving him the "benefit of the doubt" is laughable. What doubt? The bloke has taken the piss out of us for eight years ffs, he gives one interview and people are falling at his feet. Reminds me of when Graeme Souness did an hour Q&A on BBC Newcastle during the summer after a pathetic season and people (not me, that's for sure) were absolutely swooning over the bloke for weeks and months afterwards, up until they saw his fucking shit team again.

Exactly. There is not one iota of doubt. If you actually listen to the content of the interview there's less doubt than ever. "My door" followed by "I won't choose the next manager, that's not what I do". The guy's a manipulative, money-grabbing arsehole and it's never been clearer.

Dave Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I liked the bit where he said he'd continue to invest in the club despite proudly not investing in the club. Or allowing the club to invest its own money. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 The only thing I heard him say that even tries to suggest any kind of change in attitude is that we'll try to win something (the very idea that that has to be said ), but he never suggested any change in the process. At best that suggests we might employ our same s*** league form in the cup games instead of being extra s*** in them/dropping players. Glory be.
