Boro’s Saudi Banner

DonaldDownTheWing said:
I honestly wish some people would realise the amount of hoops we jump through to put anything on.

The only time we’ve made a genuine mistake was the material we used for the Quinn display. Some could say that we fucked up wembley but we were told it was all in hand and we have the proof of that.


A few examples…

We organised the stripes for the playoff. The club realised a fan group were doing more than them and put the cats eyes on at the last minute.

We raised a fortune for Wembley. They fucked up the order and left us to take the blame.

They made us pick up all the cards after the Coventry display. It was going to take us days so they promised signed photos for people who came in to help tidy up. It took them 6 months to send them out.

They changed the time that volunteers could go into the ground a day before a set up.

The insisted that we always clear up after a display.

They have promised us proper storage at the back of the south stand for years, we’re still waiting.

They cancelled boro display because they think it’s our displays that cause “missiles” be thrown on the pitch. There’s been more objects thrown when there’s no displays than when there is displays.

They promised they’d explain to fans why boro was cancelled, they didn’t.

They stopped us putting passion pride wearside in the east stand ahead of boro.

They mentioned a worry about the boro game because of the March we organised. It went o perfectly, with no bother whatsoever.

They told us we could make a banner in the stadium and that we should cut the letters out in the car park. It was pissing down.

They knew about the boro display in July and said in January they knew nothing about it.

They told us they’d create a document in july, for us to submit display plans. They reiterated this promise in January. We’ve still not got it, despite repeated requests.

Cannot see them letting us have an anti saudi banner then. Shame the club are being really awkward about stuff. Must be a mare for yous.Its almost as if they are trying to sicken you into giving up
 

The problem, if it is a problem, for us is we will just be deemed bitter by so many will perceive it that way.The Palace banner that they sent to Brighton for their Mags game, was awesome. We should however get something on the go. I kind of saw our pride of the north east efoort as a subtle dig.

That banner was in direct response to their shit surfer boro did against us.
 
Sounds that they are doing their best to piss you off @DonaldDownTheWing
Suppose you just need to call them out at every opportunity, they always drop their nuts when social media gets going criticising them for the ineptitude.
I hate Davison & KLD for what they are doing off field, and I’m not too happy with the on field shyte too.

I have no idea if there's any 'undercover mags' on here.
All well and good the likes of we three kings accusing me of sniping, all I did was respond to a posters dig at Boro - of which there's been more than one on this thread.

Fair enough but I think it’s fair to say the vast majority of SAFC supporters support you on this.

I think it’s fair to say it’s a little difficult for SAFC support to do what you have done without looking a little bitter at our neighbours.

However I think most decent people in football think sports washing is vile and it really should not prosper. There is a reason why the Saudis choose them. All other fan bases would have real issues…they would and have sold their soul to win a football match. Sometimes things are bigger than football.

Fair play to boro 👏👏👏 and hopefully more clubs make this stance and SAFC can play a part without looking like a jealous neighbour.

Yeah, no disagreement from me on that.
As I say, I only responded to a (imo) needless dig, but that's by the by really.
I do think that the only People that would view SAFC's involvement as jealousy would be Newcastle fans (in the main).
