Considering I didn't personally protest at anything, I do not need to justify my Newcastle United support.
I didn't beg for anything to be passed.

Anyone that expects a person to give up being a fan and supporter of their club by using this as a battering ram should really sit back and think on the reality of the situation of being a fan and having allegiance.

I know people will argue with me that, if it was them they'd give up their support and their club for good..... but talk is extremely cheap..... and actions do speak louder than words.

I still maintain that, if this was your club, Newcastle fans would be doing exactly what some of your fans are doing. Playing the moral outrage card, so I absolutely understand the situation.

The majority of it is utter jealousy on the whole, In my honest opinion. Not just by some Sunderland fans but by some of all fans and people connected to many clubs.

I think I saw someone mention that I just keep repeating myself. I likely do but in general it's about being quoted, so I answer.
The very same stuff is said to me time and time again. It's just the nature of the beast and it must be frustrating for some of your fans to see Newcastle fans appearing to be happy and not caring, but that does not mean they are monsters who don't care about atrocities. They just care about their club and you can't blame them for that, no matter how much some of your fans would like them to give it up and send it into oblivion.


It's just not going to happen, fans wise. What the owners do is another matter.

Never once said that. Simply saying the 'fans don't choose owners' shite doesn't wash. When your fans have literally pursued building and stamped their feet for them to takeover. You might mot have, but plenty did even after trying to get mps involved on Ashley's zero hours contract model.

Morally bankrupt is far too nice for a section if your support. Disgrace.

Your owners are commiting f***ing GENOCIDE but you'll let that pass because football is more important to you?

The fans don't choose owners. Owners choose clubs.
If fans could choose owners then Ashley would've been gone a long time ago and a new owner installed, if that was the case.

Plenty of whining and whinging and banners to boycott as well as pocket boycott's...etc. That was for Ashley out like many clubs do when they don't want a regime.
A regime will come and go when the regime decides, not the fans.

The game was taken away from the fans a long time ago...especially at the top end of football.

You're more than entitled to think that and whatever else you want to think.
It won't alter the mindset of the many who will continue doing what they've always done, which is, support Newcastle United.

Will you be protesting against the owners whilst going to the matches?

Eh? Your fans were actively pleading them to purchase the club, have you wiped that from your memory? :lol:

They’ve got their club back ? How exactly ???

Have they ever had it ?

In the 70s , Lord Westwood was getting it in the neck as the natives were revolting and unhappy (surprise surprise) with the way they were being treated.

In the 80s it was McKeag who copped it.

Even in the 90s , they kicked off big time when bonds/platinum club were introduced by FF/JH. There was a right old furore for a good while. Followed closely by the FS/DH fiasco where they laughed at how easy it was to rip their fans off.

Then the noughties came along and with their club in serious financial bother, billionaire FMA came in and we all know how that played out.

Will be interesting to see how long it will be before they are kicking off against this new regime. Not long I'll wager.

Says a lot that. You should be pretty ashamed decisions at your club will be made by people (person) who makes the decisions to bump journalists off, behead people and bomb Yemen.

The consortium themselves may not have beheaded anyone but they do come from a country who has a regime of doing it and that’s enough.

This is now the image of the mags world wide. Tea towel wearing, Saudi flag waving Sportswashed morons.

Compare this with our reputation portrayed in STID it’s tells you everything you need to know about the clubs and two sets of supporters.

What are they going to rename the strawberry in honour of their new masters ? The slaughtered journalist, the bound arms or the decapitated head. Being on the lash will have a whole new meaning to the scummy bastards.

They are trying to be better though.

And anyway, whatabout you, Bob? Ever watched Disney a film you bloody hypocrite.

And I bet you haven't undertaken a personal mission to stop the genociding. A new found objection to genocide is it? Probably just jealousy.

When they knew we had a potential buyer, of course they were pleading. They wanted Ashley out at all costs, whether I agreed with that or not, which I did not.
I wasn't over the moon with Ashley of late but I appreciated what he did, even if he did make massive errors as well as sulky pet lip digs in a teet for tat with certain fan groups.

All I'm saying is, if owners want a club they'll buy a club. It my be obviously much more appealing if there's a big stadium and fans to match but there's more to these people buying football clubs just solely because of fan influence.

Was any of the owners/shareholders responsible for atrocities. I mean did they order any of it or are they just part of a country that did? Serious question.
