Shearergol Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Lads lads lads, you can clearly hear a fan shout "hey Mike, how many 14" cheesy garlic breads did you manage?" before he's seen doing that gesture. It's nothing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest firetotheworks Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Bit lairy for this time in the morning in here, isn't it? Think people, many of whom are involved in organising or participating in protests are just a bit fed up with being spoken down to by someone whose own entire contribution to the cause is posting the same thing over and over and over again. i.e. absolutely zero contribution. It's as rich as it is tiresome. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stifler Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I haven't seen any so just asked the BBC if they will be covering it, along with that video. Actually, regarding the video; if Rafa gets done by the FA for simply saying "andre mariner" then surely ashley should be charged with regards to that petulant fingers up gesture? At a location away from a football ground? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stal Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Why not? He is a well known personality within the game. If I'm out, especially in a situation relating to my job, then my actions reflect on the company as well as myself. I know that you lot will know better than me, which is why I phrased it as a question. Happy to be told the way it is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 I'm amazed that the police managed to send 10 officers, given that there probably aren't as many covering the whole of Northumerland (after 8pm at night) Fantastic effort to the lads who went and got in his face. The childish two fingered salute at the end, shows the contempt that the man has for us and it should be all over the news. For me, this is up there with the famous 'Toongate' scandal, involving Shepherd and Hall back in the late 90's. I'd like to think that the FA should investigate this for bringing the game into disrepute, but I bet they won't. Clearly the protests have him upset, which is a shot in the arm for both the Magpie Group and AshleyOut. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonArmy1892 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Aye, can people settle down. For what it’s worth TMG have not ruled out a boycott, they have only ruled it out for now until there is more support. Some people who go to games do so because outside of TMG there wouldn’t be enough support to make it worthwhile. Getting upset over people who do or don’t still go to games is like getting upset that no one last night just took Ashley out. You cannot tell people what to do, and as soon as you do the sooner you divide the fans and lose your support. People need to grasp this. If it happened now, the same people calling for it now, would be complaining that not enough people joined in. What makes you think more people will join in later? Now is the time, bad results and Ashley VISIBLY taking the piss and telling fans to fuck off. Time IS NOT on our side in this if we want to keep Rafa Benitez.

Disco Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Wouldn't be surprised if the angle was to get some protesters there and for it to get a bit out of hand so they could paint Ashley as some sort of persecuted hero as per when his family felt so unsafe they had to lie to the press about death threats. Yet because everything he does RE: NUFC is so fucking shite, he and his gang of spivs couldn't even manage that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now is the time, bad results and Ashley VISIBLY taking the piss and telling fans to fuck off. Time IS NOT on our side in this if we want to keep Rafa Benitez. The protests are getting larger. They are getting more attention by match going fans, they are getting more attention politically, even the media tide is turning. With every protest we are getting more and more coverage, and believe me we are about to get a bit more coverage soon. First you have to entice people to join in the protests, get them to come back to future protests, hand things out etc, then they have the bug and then they will be more willing to take action that they never considered beforehand. We are already seeing this with every protest and every meeting. Ashley is reacting the way he is because it’s getting to him. Even the meal last night would never have happened if it wasn’t from fan pressure, sure he cocked up but that’s an indication that it really is getting to him.

TRon Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 It's on camera, Mike. He did it in a sly way so it could look like he was just resting his face on his hands while two fingers were coincidentally cocked towards the window. Not sure the media is going to buy it though.

Odear Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 It’s like a monty python sketch. At least the unlikely media sections are reporting on it too. Talksport for example.

Happinesstan Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Very disappointing there was no physical action tbh Yeah that would have been wise, with 8 Police officers in attendance. On that note why is it that if an ordinary person is being actually threatened the police can't do anything until a crime is committed, but cunts like Ashley can get police protection all the way home?
