timnufc22 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Wow. That is painful to look at. This is a piss take, an attack on our identity & heritage, and an attack on the fans. This over-rides any transfer business or whatever happens on the pitch, he can sell which ever player he wants, fail to sign a striker etc, but this is the real news. Totally unacceptable is an understatement, this is rape of the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JH Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 For those doubting the credibility of this... i ask you to have a look at every f***ing inch of spare space in the ground. You'll find it has Sports Direct written on it. Have you not seen the Gallowgate's roof ffs? They even threw on a load of banners on the non-allocated away seats the other day! Frankly i'm astonished this hasn't been done sooner. That and why would they take the letters down at all? Has it ever been done before? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 If this is indeed happening it's been timed handily again... Look at me becoming all cynical. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubaricho Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Wonder how much of the 35m is being used to change the sign? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallace Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 We've got the huge f*** off writing on top of the Gallowgate stand for SD, what more does he want...!? But i don't think he'll be that stupid to take down the signage. Or i really hope he doesn't. The Gallowgate roof only gets seen by those in the Leazes End - most TV cameras and photos don't capture it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Duper Branko Strupar Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 It already flashes Sports Direct all around the fucking touchlines where the camera's tend to point for most of the game, if it goes in place of the Newcastle United sign which gets a 1 second cutaway then it's just Malice Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

themanupstairs Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Why would they leave some of the letters up if the whole thing was being taken off permanently? Sure hope this isn't true, as it would be tantamount to the biggest scandal yet under the Ashley regime. You can f*** with the manager and squad all you like, but you don't f*** with the one thing that is the reason we're all here in the first place. Because they're huge heavy fuckers and they can't do them all at once @ Yorkie Geordie: Agree 100% Obviously. Just wondering if there was anything to read into the fact that they weren't taken down in order. Hoping that some fixtures on certain letters need changing or some such.

Aphrodite Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 .com's just put a picture up of it today. Maybe they'll have one tomorrow too, or whenever it's complete. Can't copy it though. http://www.nufc.com/2011-12images/2011-08-31east-stand.jpg Surprised no-ones trying to decode 'Astle Ned' as some sort of message to the fans Astle--> Jeff (Astle)--> West Brom Ned--> Scottish We're signing James Morrison!

JJ7 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 A depressing end to the night. Im sure some things are just done to piss folk off. "No striker, ah ha, look at this too!!!!!" Ashley is the type of cunt who would kick someone in the face if he had already knocked them out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Great news if we get some advertising up their to balance the books. Could really make the difference between the club going under and not. Good work Dekka. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I thought when I say the photo, I wasn't more worried by it than before. Hope we're right! Would be disgusting to see that lettering gone.

Big Geordie Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Wonder how much of the 35m is being used to change the sign? Anyone would think the man is doing it on purpose! It's gonna be a Sports Direct sign going up in it's place and another well aimed kick in the balls for the supporters. Shameful. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisMcQuillan Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 I sit in the Milburn Stand with a view of both the Gallowgate Roof and the East Stand roof. I'm not sure I could stomach going to games anymore with both of those so badly defaced. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
