Nobody Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 The changing of the font on the NEWCASTLE UNITED is one of those purely sinister and spiteful plots that only Mike Ashley could come up with. Absolutely no reason whatsoever to do that other than to piss on the fans. So glad we're finally rid of that cunt, and hopefully soon the shite he put all over the stadium as well.

The only change I would make (after the letters are restored) is to have a large Club Crest on there, perhaps at each side of the name, like the one that used to be on the Leazes End. I only have one photo that shows the crest in place, but here it is. Robbie Elliot looks like he's been bootleggin' liquor with Max and Noodles.

Would be great if who ever bought it in 2019 has had it repaired/refurbished and could sell (or even gift) it back to the club for re-use in/on the stadium. I mentioned this earlier (a few posts ago) but the Crest was 'lost' for years. Then it was found and sold off . . .

I mean..look at that. Those letters could have been placed somwhere on the compounds of SJP and still could be used for photo taking or something. But all fat Mike was thinking of was making money. Stupid cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris_R Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Just to annoy the rest of the PL, we could paint the club name on the roof in oil? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattoon Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Should definitely be used for bonfire material with an effigy of Ashley on top flanked by his merry men of scrap heap managers we've had to endure over the years. Therapeutic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Just commission brand new NEWCASTLE UNITED letters in a proper font and get new badges placed too. Job done. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 If we are talking upgrades to the stadium... I'd love to us do something similar to Schalke, where they have a tunnel which basically looks like a coal mine. Perhaps even a digital version, where you walk down the tunnel and its all a screen (even the ceiling, which changes the imaging and messaging. I just like to see something really inspiring in there that represents the heritage of the club and the region. Perhaps even the ship yards or something. Just thinking out loud now.

Golden letters, would look good too. Perhaps even in fancy lettering, rather than block capitals. Let's be honest, anyone artsy could come up with some cool designs better than the current mess.

Why not have two separate tunnels for us and one for the away team....but make the away one look scary and demotivating as hell....or interactive screens for them. Like if we're playing Man Utd, just have TVs all down the tunnel repeatedly playing Aguerrroo!!! over and over again, or if we ever face Sunderland again, just a montage of Ameobi goals against them. Would that even be allowed? If not, why not? Edited November 12, 2021 by gjohnson Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitley mag Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Get rid of those shitty signs outside the ground aswell with the names of the stands on. Some nice lit up signage like outside the emirates would be classy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
