Takeover Thread - July 1st statement, Staveley letter to Tracey Crouch (and response) in OP

[Stifler]

Waiting for whitley mag (Keith) to come on and start weirdly defending himself while telling others that at least Keith (himself) is doing something about the takeover.

 

:lol: It's funny because it's true.

 

Oddly enough I’m not sure where Keith is coming from with the claims re Caulkin.

 

However, you’re absolutely correct he’s done far more in relation to this takeover than either of yourselves.

Has?

I know for fine fact that there is fans on here who have spoken to Staveley about buying the club, both recently when they bid fell apart, and a few years ago when she was interested and even when her initial bid fell away.

 

I know theirs fans on here who put the pressure on Ashley to sell up. Some people have had legal action taken against them by Ashley for simply protesting. Other have risked their careers. Loads of people have risked their jobs. Others have put in a lot of money.

 

Going on Twitter and telling the people on there that they did f*** all to help the takeover is fine and absolutely spot on. Don’t you f***ing dare come on here and say it though.

 

Sorry mate I forgot you we’re her pen pal, I’d hesitate to guess you haven’t put 50k plus in either. You’re paranoid gibberish about him being Wraith’s front man is laughable.

I’m not on about me here, let’s get that straight.

I’m on about the likes of Greg who helped with the Magpie group. Came up from London after work to help organise fans meetings on evenings before heading straight back down. Joined NUST, got lawyers involved to try and prevent the land at the Gallowgate being developed which would block off any expansion of the Gallowgate.

 

Yorkie who came up from York on his evenings to do so much.

 

HTT who helped fund fans campaigns.

 

There is people on here who got in touch with the likes of Arthur Blank to see if he would buy the club, Mark Cuban, amongst others.

 

Members who have had lawyers taking action against them because they so much as had Ashley’s face on protest materials. Other members who have had Charnley call the police on him because he looked like he could be aggressive when he dropped off two old ladies outside his house who delivered a letter.

Other members who risked their job for being in protests and their organisation because it’s classed as political.

 

Now I’ve said Keith is to be thanked for what he’s done. I’ve seen how people turn on you when you start something. I’ve not knocked him for his attempts and I won’t, and if I saw him in the street I’d thank him myself. But I’d also advise him to stay out of Twitter debates. If people want to have a go at you, let them, because as soon as you react they bring you down to their level you lose credibility. This is what’s happening with him now. He’s best off just keeping it to factual statements, and I think he knows that because that was what he said he would change just a few weeks ago.

 

There are people on here just like him who have done so much and who have been slated time and time again.

You want to have a go at people, have a go at the likes of that Toon Polls kid who was skating the Magpie group for their efforts, then pointing out the Keegan flag to the stewards so they could confiscate it, then recently taking credit for someone else’s idea of a form of protest against the PPTV games.

 

I like the way you broadened you’re response to incorporate other members, I notice you didn’t mention the 2 I directed my post at though.

 

However, that’s bye the bye and I’m not going to get involved in a tit for tat. What I will say though is I support anyone who spends their own time trying to improve the state of this club. Certainly the members you mention and their actions, I wouldn’t dream of criticising.

 

Though I had a cheap shot at yourself in relation to you’re letter to Staveley, I actually think that’s great and I’ve written many letters myself in relation to this takeover.

 

See my other post for my thoughts on the way he is presenting.

All my point was that people on here won’t slate someone for doing something. The only criticism he is getting is about getting into words of wars which many people on here have seen happen to people trying to help the club time and time before and if I’m honest, it’s more of advice to him than anything.

 

The reason why I’m defensive of people on here is because theirs a lot of people on here who have actually tried to help the club, many more than who I have mentioned. It’s not often known but this place is a hotbed for stuff like that. Name any protest group, or fans groups and you’d likely find that it is individuals on here who have been behind them.

I get defensive because I have seen these people try, I have seen the hope in their eyes disappear, and it hurts me and the only thing they have left is the honour that they have tried and I back them to the hilt when that honour is taken away from them.

 

I myself have tried, in my own way. I’m not going to blow my own trumpet, lots of people ahead of me were able to put in more time, more money, more creativity than I was able too. I tried my best where I could and I wrote a few letters. I did that because like many on here I’m not one of those people who can sit there and let others do the work, I wear my heart on my sleeve in some sense. Maybe it hasn’t helped me, but I don’t believe doing nothing would have helped either.

 

I’m not going to get into a word or wars with you or anyone else, all I will say is that a lot of what people are saying is from either first hand experience or witnessing it happen to others.

If Keith is on here then all I’d say is don’t get in a word of wars with people. It’s not worth it, they will bring you down to their level of stupidity, and once there they will beat you with their experience. Keep it professional to the point of updates and at the end of it you’ll have the people who skated you eating their words.

 

[Guest reefatoon]

He’s turned pure evil. He’s now up there with Richard Keys, Hatice and Triggs as the demons of the takeover.

[Guest Howaythetoon]

N.O made Pardew cry and helped get rid of him FACT

[lovejoy]

Who is this Keith fella? It’s not Keith Pattinson, is it?

[lovejoy]

Ignore that, I’ve just checked and it isn’t.

[tgarve]

Thought it was?

[gdm]

Aye I think it is

[lovejoy]

Thought it was?

 

 

Nah, the estate agent is Pattinson, this fella is Patterson.

 

I was thinking  it’s not going to do his estate agent business any good being a total twat on twitter, but it’s not even him ?

When Ashley's time is finally up, that will genuinely be one of my favourite moments of his horrid tenure.

For balance mind there was some members on here who went to town on him after the letter to Boris, and it was certainly abusive rather than constructive.

 

I fully support anyone in whatever small way they have tried to contribute to regime change. This is why despite some of Keith’s misdemeanours, I support him 100% in his efforts.

 

Is he beyond reproach no, but ultimately I don’t think he cares and sees this as a 2 man action. You’re either with him or you’re not. Is that approach going to unite the fan base certainly not, but I don’t think any of us will care if in some small way he helps get this done.

Really? Reading some of his Twitter interactions, he's probably the thinnest-skinned human being alive.

I think you’re mistaken he just has the attitude I won’t take shit from anyone.

[ToonTastic]

Yes still there are fans who complain that we got rid of Pardew. Yet it really showed the actual power of our fans we we are truly United. Egos and stop it happening enough.

[Chris_R]

It's the internet. You can't refuse to take shit from people, it's not an option.

 

He's being thin skinned and precious.

Doing nothing is just as good as spending £40k of your personal money and taking a year out from your job? Heard it all now. Reminds me of some of the excuses for not boycotting one game

 

£40k to one man can be the equivalent of 20p to another. Not everyone has money/time to throw around speculatively.

 

Who’s to say his rancid Twitter posts and ramblings to the PL aren’t actually causing harm? In that case, doing nothing is just as good.

 

Your opinion on what is ‘better’ is simply that, an opinion. Every supporter of the club is entitled to their own which is why I think the dick measuring is pathetic.

 

Yes but there is dick measuring and not even having a dick to measure

My girlfriend has told me for years that size doesn’t matter.

Anyway. Surely we want this to happen when lockdown is over? Town will be immense. Scarily I said that in April/May 2020!

Interesting thread;

Bet we don’t though.

Krypton Electrical Wholesalers Ltd is Twitter Keith.

 

Only a small company. I thought he was some sort of big thing given everyone talked about his great pedigree on Twitter etc when they first launched.

 

Maybe I'm missing something......

I don’t think he’s ever been talked about as some big thing unless I’ve missed something? That’s why you can’t fault his sacrifice.

Like I say, happy to be corrected, but I was sure he was heralded as some sort of success story? Unless it was the other fella, from Surrey?
