Whitley mag Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 Well if the letter could have been a lot better, why don’t you write one to Boris and stick it up on here ? That would be a constructive way of making a contribution, instead of nit picking over a letter that certainly doesn’t need to be polished. It’s very easy to ‘point out’ as you put it, but the stick these lads have been getting from elements of the fan base is disgusting. Good job they seem to have broad shoulders, as currently they’re a great source of information and are keeping this in the media spotlight. This is such a nonsensical argument. I'm not allowed to criticise because I haven't written a letter myself? Get out of here. That's like saying I can't criticise any of our players unless I'm willing to be a better professional footballer myself. Think the referee made a wrong call? Don't mention it if you've not reffed in the PL yourself. Criticise the government? Not until you've been PM yourself and done a better job! You see how silly it is? It just doesn't work like that, stop talking such utter soil. I have every right to criticise anything I wish that's released into the public domain, especially if it purports to be taking action on my behalf. We already (rightly or wrongly) have an image problem as a fanbase, and as a fan I'm entitled to not want that made worse and I absolutely will speak out if I think that's the case. Again, I'm very much behind the concept of what they're doing but if they're getting "disgusting" stick over this letter, it's because of what they themselves have written. Maybe the fault is there, not with the people pointing that out? This is a unique situation and not comparable to the examples you have quoted. The examples you have given are all well paid professionals, who have put themselves in a position where you would expect criticism. Why on earth would someone want to criticise 2 fans using there own time, and money for the potential benefit of the whole fanbase ? I’m not accusing yourself of this, and to be honest I really can’t be arsed to scrawl back through old posts, however when people are accusing them of being embarrassing, in what way is that constructive ? If these 2 lads decided to say f*** this, we’d all be worse off as a result. As for potentially embarrassing the fanbase, have a word with yourself, these 2 lads are individually doing more for this fanbase than anyone else I can remember in recent memory. On a final point the latter was not signed on behalf of the fanbase, therefore to imply it reflects on yourself or any other supporter is utter tosh.

Rod Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 If you haven't done so then read the full letter to the Prime Minister, absolute rambling nonsense. I very much doubt it will ever see the eyes of the PM. NCSL may well have a QC they keep naming but there is not a chance in hell any of their published letters have been drafted by a junior legal professional let alone a QC. The takeover doesn't really exist anymore, PIF pulled out and Ashley instigated arbitration proceedings. I've no doubt PIF are waiting in the wings to come back if that arbitration is successful and they are given a unilateral undertaking their O&D application would be approved. But right now all we have is a twitter storm whipped up by a few well known individuals, with the expect help of a certain journalist no one had ever heard of a few months ago. They said they would issue legal action through the Competition Appeals Tribunal if they didn't get what they wanted - they then didn't get what they wanted and just wrote more letters, asked fans to written letters to MPs and now a very badly drafted letter to the Prime Minister. It's noise, and just making more noise.... more followers, more views for someone's shows on youtube show... all the whole stringing along fans that are simply desperate after the awful 13 years or so of Mike Ashley. You have no idea about strategy have you? Ashley AND the consortium are playing this very well. Obviously you can't see that or you are too thick to comprehend it.

Chris_R Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 On a final point the latter was not signed on behalf of the fanbase, therefore to imply it reflects on yourself or any other supporter is utter tosh. Wrong. It doesn't matter what they sign at the bottom, they repeatedly talk about the fanbase as a whole in their letter and indeed in all of their communications. And it doesn't matter if people do things for free or professionally - If you do them publicly, do them well or expect criticism. Then there's a choice: Throw your toys out the pram, or use that criticism to do better next time because, as said, we all want them to do well. But the criticism absolutely is valid and should not be censored just because they're doing it for free. They're representing us, in our eyes AND seemingly in theirs.

Dr Jinx Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 It has all turned into a rather cultish and cuntish debacle, this thread. Nothing is happening right now. There’s no need to point score or fight with other members over it. Achieves nothing. I believe it’s still very much alive based on what I’ve heard (in real life, not the internet) but also, pretty much everyone outside of fed up Newcastle supporters don’t give a rats arse about this. It’s not newsworthy right now. And despite us being fed up, there are way more important things happening in the world right now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we feel the tone is wrong, we have every right to say that. At no point have they said they’re representing the fanbase, they have asked for support from the fanbase which is entirely different. They mention the fanbase as in the 100 thousand signatures and the NUST poll of 97% approval for takeover, but at no point have they claimed to speak for the whole fanbase. If you think by writing this letter it makes them fair game to be called embarrassing, then no wonder no fan action in relation to removing Ashley has ever stuck. This fanbase has a major problem with anyone standing up to take action. If you think criticism is due and you claim to want them to do well, why don’t you get in touch with them and offer some help. I’ll keep coming back to this it’s easy to criticise, and I’d be very interested to know which parts of the letter you think embarrass us as fans so much ? I’m quite sure they’d welcome constructive feedback, but some of the criticism is ott and way off the mark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

manorpark Posted January 2, 2021 Share Posted January 2, 2021 That letter is utter fucking tripe. So poorly written too. The whole thing stinks of that cretin Steve Wraith like. NCSL are an embarrassment like. They're called Newcastle Consortium Supporters and tweet like a 14 year old girl. They've been an embarrassment from day 1. There are probably a lot of people on here who feel that they can write a more professional sounding letter than the Newcastle Consortium Supporters. Yes, well maybe you can, and maybe you can't. BUT, what the **ck have you actually DONE ? Eh, what have you DONE? These guys have done a lot, and are still doing a lot. We all owe them a debt, a great debt, I am personally very proud of them. it is great to have people who 'care' on our side, people who actually DO something! Shut up, man. Fucks sake. Are you ok?? I take it you are one of those bedroom "do nothing" types. Go and put a new frame on your Facebook profile picture, man. Shit emojis all over the place. Words in full caps. Shit punctuation. Repeating the same, childish, baseless shit over and over. Your posts are AIDS to my eyes. Grow up. It's not too late, you can (perhaps) be helped. Maybe.
