Wallsendmag Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Ah hate empty seats me. I couldn't care less about being labelled a real fan or a part timer anymore. I had a season ticket for 24 years, did about a dozen away games every season and followed the team all over Europe but I haven't been to an away game for over 2 years and only went to 4 home games this season. There's no loyalty in football any more and that applies to me now. If I feel the team are doing well and deserve my support I buy a ticket and if not I don't bother. That's where I am these days and I'm not ashamed to admit i That just echoes the feelings of the majority back then so not sure what you're trying to prove with that. Nice that you remembered it though and have spent most your morning trying to find it I know loads of people who've chucked it for a variety of reasons over the last 10 years. Football isn't the same now. The fact that Lansbury was given player of the month after the FA basically admitted he's a cheat shows this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benwell Lad Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 People whinge about people talking attendances in here then accept things like the Pardew thread This forum has it's own trendy topics that only a small minority of our fan base probably actually give a s*** about. Fnd it strange me like. The Alan Pardew thread on here must be the most embarrassing thing on the Internet. It's probably on about its 4th incarnation now after constantly hitting 1,000 pages. Sad thing is it generates far more interest than the Rafa Benitez thread, our current manager, whereas Pardew has been gone for 2 years and is currently making a pigs ear out of it at another club, which certainly isn't our problem. I dont really give a s*** what Pardew does but I sure as hell understand why people have this so called "obsession" for him. He ruined the love of football for many people, he consistently chastised the fans, spouted s***, and made people want the club to lose, to want to see that t*** fail is normal. As for the "most embarrassing thing on the internet" tag, have you seen Reddit? At the end of the day talking about our local Rivals (Just not RTG links every other post) and an ex manager is completely fine. The only thing that annoys me personally is that people seem to like to use attendance figures as a justification for slating an entire fan base, and acting like Newcastle fans are superior, when most definitely are not. We should start up a Graeme Souness thread whilst we're at it then. He did far more damage than Pardew did, especially considering his starting position of having a Champions League quality squad to work with. Pardew has gone, he's been gone for 2 years. His name being constantly at the top of this messageboard is an embarrassment. Are you just being ignorant for s***s and giggles? So you seriously don't see why people would want to talk about a manager that almost destroyed there love for football? And actively made them want the club to lose? Get a grip man you big daft tart The majority of people on here don't even go to the matches anyway so the worst he did was make them turn their streams off in the huff. Destroyed their love for football ffs man You couldn't have been watching NUFC all that long if Alan Pardew did all that to you. I didn't like the bloke, I'll admit it, but he's been gone for 2 years now and we now have one of the worlds great mangers running our club which is why Pardew isn't even worthy of a mention anymore. That may upset some of our self indulgent luvvies who think the world wants to hear about their feelings and how they have been hurt by the club or whoever.

Figures 1-0 Football Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 I don't see why people dont just read and post in the threads that they have an interest in, rather than getting all precious and upset when they go in there and upset themselves about something. If someone posts something you dont want to read ina thread you hold an interest in, then just be an adult and ignore it. Rather than posting some tedious comment about how other people should live their lives on the forum. Some people are interested in crowds, others aren't. If it is a conversation you are interested in but just disagree with the post, reply back with something constructive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pardew haters Vs Mackem haters we need a referendum Except it's perfectly possible and indeed acceptable to be both. Whereas any other topical referendum in this country in the last 6 months the Mackems did and Pardew almost certainly voted for the uneducated, bigoted and racist choice.

Guest Howaythetoon Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 We should start up a Graeme Souness thread whilst we're at it then. He did far more damage than Pardew did Did he fuck, an absolutely unbelievable statement that. Souness was just a rank bad manager. Pardew is the devil incarnate. A man who patronised fans, belittled our region and the intelligence of Geordies. A man who regarded clubs like Swansea and Southampton as clubs poor little old Newcastle could never compete with. A man who was a cunt of a person to his own staff, another manager, someone who head butted an opposition player and pushed a referee. Souness was very bad, but only at getting results. Pardew was on a whole other level. At least Souness actually had ambition and didn't regard the cups or Europe as damaging to the club. Souness never once belittled fans or said bad things about the region. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also said at the time of getting the job it was the biggest job he was ever given then in that Irish radio interview said the club was small time with only a real support of a about 10k fans, the rest are customers.

Hanshithispantz Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 The issues with Pardew go beyond his capabilities as a manager though. I cannot remember giving less of a shit about NUFC than when managed by him, the whole period after finishing 5th was just a total disaster on every possible turn. Obviously that's Ashley, but he was fully on board with it. In terms of getting results there isn't much between them. Both were absolutely shite and had their sides performing far below what they should have been. Souness is a cunt anyway, fuck him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
