I've seen on the SMB before when Boro fans have defended their crowds and mentioned catchment areas they have..this place laughed at them

Now we are on about catchment areas to downplay Newcastle crowds but how they are good for ours 🤣

Newcastle is on the rail main line, I remember this been a big thing back in the day as peers got dragged into going to games, a simple journey or a bit of effort.

So why mention them? They have more fans than us, which leads to a higher number of match going fans than us. They've also been better than us for 99% of the last 50 years.

Does anybody care what they pull in? Our crowds are very good and that's all I'm arsed about.

As I’ve said and he keeps avoiding / stating incorrect facts, when they faced a bit of adversity their crowds proper tumbled. Facts are all clubs would have lower gates if it happened, but he proper pipes them off.

Same as when they give free tickets away ( recently!!) it’s a protest
Any other club loses fans it’s not a protest

We do though

Even tonight on the thread Ive mentioned about DN the fans who you think aren't toxic just proving otherwise

A small minority of which you’d get at any club. This board isn’t representative of the fanbase as a whole.

Come on man

They were getting crowds of 40k

Ours dropped to the mid to late 20s

Tbf, their average probably dropped 12k from 52k and ours probably dropped about 14k.

It's probably not as huge a gap as you're making out. They averaged alot more than us in the PL to start with.

I'm not antagonising anyone. I give a view and as Ive said to a couple of others it seems to trigger certain people to become aggressive and at times abusive.

You are fighting a one man battle against the "small minority' ..... in other words everyone else commenting on here is wrong......that's called 'circumstantial evidence' 🤔

The percentage drop off will be about the same and as I’ve already said that was their first time it had gone tits up for them. It’s happened so much for us that I don’t even know what season you’re talking about. Our crowds are ridiculously good

I mean look at the Dan Neil thread. Young local lad who isnt playing too great. Instead of getting behind him this forum pulls him to bits like they have with others in the past

You won't find me slagging off Dan Neil. I really like him. I like to be positive where I can but fair.

Generally, you can come across negatively. And you're quite abrasive with other posters. This is why people get arsey with you
