Standing in streets stamping on cans of coke, because they sponsor the (ex corrupt) PL demanding they let beheaders and and stoners buy their club before denying any of this happened.

I don't even think they understand themselves so no wonder nobody else does.

I've never seen the article it referred to but this little snippet he's quoted from it is glorious.

Hurst points to an astonishing column published in The Times back in 2008, the year after Ashley’s arrival as owner and not long after Keegan’s second spell in the dugout ended in resignation and acrimony. It appeared under the headline, “Newcastle United fans are the club’s biggest problem”, and described “the world’s most whimsical supporters”, as “whining, whingeing, self-pitying, self-indulgent and deluded”.

Can’t get it all like but here’s the start of it. Yep spot on :D

Here is a message for the whining, whingeing, self-pitying, self-indulgent and deluded fans on Tyneside, otherwise known as the Toon Army: Kevin Keegan is not the Messiah; Alan Shearer is not an aspect of the trinity; Mike Ashley is not the Devil; Tony Jimenez is not on the secret payroll of Sunderland; and Dennis Wise is not an evil dwarf.

Newcastle United are not a “massive” club and do not have a divine right to remain in the Premier League; St James’ Park is not the world’s greatest stadium; and, in case you were wondering, your team will not break into the top four any time soon, with or without Ashley, Keegan, Wise or any of the other men who are heroes, villains and sometimes

It's going to be a catch 22 for the mags, the higher the transfer fees that they pay for players the higher the opposition to them will be. They really need to keep as low a profile as possible and not go out big which of course would anger our hypocritical neighbours.

Word is Brighton fans are borrowing Palaces banner for that game
Click to expand...
yes even though Brighton and Palace are fierce rivals - I have seen it mentioned that the Palace fans may agree to loan the banner when Brighton play Newcastle next week .
With the police having already agreed to take no action over the banner - hopefully copies can be made - and the banners displayed all around the ground - making it hard for television and main stream media to ignore .
With Brighton having such a large and organised LGTBQ community I would expect some new banners to be displayed .
Our contempt for what Newcastle now stands for is not going away - every away game will be more embarrassing for them .
