It's what they're pricing them at Obviously if they've all lumped on promotion based on a bit of momentum then it'll shorten the price. No idea who they've even signed tbh.

If you read the article it actually says..... "Few, if any, of their fellow fans would begrudge them that. Something of a myth has been allowed to take hold, over the last few years, about Newcastle’s fans. They have developed a reputation for being equal parts demanding and delusional, for believing their club uniquely deserving of a restoration to a place of prominence in English soccer’s firmament that it never, really, occupied in the first place. The reality is almost exactly the opposite. All Newcastle’s fans have ever really asked for is a team that is mildly entertaining to watch, and a bit of effort from those charged with running the club. The banner made that perfectly clear. Ashley’s affront was not failing to win; it was robbing them of the hope that they might." https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.nytimes.com/2021/10/08/sports/soccer/newcastle-saudi-arabia-premier-league What a whopper !

Bob Stokoe is held in the highest esteem, and has a statue. Similarly, his young cup final winning captain, and subsequent Newcastle legend Barry Venison. There are obviously many more. Very true.

Guest HTT II Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) The hate in there is terrible, most post a stock response of murdering supporting scum, camel nonces, 9/11 terrorist lovers and such. It’s totally warped them and the level of debate about any single thing that just so happens to be about NUFC or even just a tenuous link drags on for pages. Lots of misogynous and casual racism posts too. They repost every single Twitter post too and then laugh if make up shit. They are seriously fucked up.

Sima Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 Reposting Burnsie and Sean Casey as a way to prove their point. Irony is that if those two were Sunderland fans (and Michael Martin for that matter), they would be nowhere near as bad as the regular whoppers on that thread.
