Guest neesy111 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 This "through thick and thin" bollocks is exactly that. I'd quite happily go and watch us play every week in the Conference, if we were actively trying to win promotion. I'd quite happily go and watch the current team in the Premier League if they weren't just simply trying to survive and not attempt to avoid getting into Europe/going on a Cup run.

Guest strongbow69 Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 Ashley does what he does because he knows that the people currently attending will continue to attend, sit in silence, give him no stick and meekly put up with it whilst still stuffing money into the coffers that's never going to be used. He's exploiting their loyalty and it's allowing him to continue to abuse the football club as an entity. That is the crux of it. Newcastle having strong crowds has always been something to be proud of. Until now. Which is why simply not pumping in money and not going is the only way. If you have a season ticket he's already got your money. He,s got your money but he doesnt need to have you servilely compliant, going to the game is a social event for many. A part of the week that constanly changes how you feel and yet you always feel the same, belonging. The boycotts can be the same if you attend them, if you do go to the match, take a leaflet and dont hand it over to a fucked over minimum wage zero hour steward ..... I doubt theyre happy either. This club is a mess and we need to take it back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 I always use this analogy: loyalty to this incarnation of NUFC is like declaring undying loyalty to your wife whilst you can hear her through the wall getting knocked off by the next door neighbour. There's a line to be drawn in any situation, a point where you have to say "That's it, I'm not having the piss taken out of me any more." Completely ruling out doing so under any circumstances shows a mind-boggling lack of self respect. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie Posted April 25, 2015 Share Posted April 25, 2015 The way the club is run behind the scenes is akin to deliberately kicking the ball into your own net once every so often, just because you think the supporters are wankers and it will be funny to aggravate them. Not Ujpest though. He just loves seeing anyone in a black and white shirt score. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since my first match in 1988, I've seen us relegated twice, promoted twice and never win owt. But in most of those 27 years, you always felt the club wanted to do better, and even win something - despite having some dodgy players like Frank Pingel, Des Hamilton or Silvio Maric. Now, its about one thing only - trying to stay in the top flight, simply to promote S****D*****.com at the highest level, whilst maintaining the lowest net spend possible. If that is the club that the likes of Ujpest want to support simply for their day out/hobby, then they are welcome to it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
