Spirit of 37 - display v Newcastle

Unfortunately some people in the south stand wouldn’t take part to allow that to happen.

We’ve had people trying to pull down the passion pride wearside banner before the sheff wed play off game and someone outright refuse to help start the Bradley Lowery surfer the other week.

All displays require fan participation and we don’t have that on the scale we need to do things like in the video you posted.

I’ve been in the south stand under the surfer a few times and majority are happy to do it.
You do hear a few rumblings of how the surfers stop the atmosphere in the build up, as it’s the south stand that do most of the singing.

I disagree like, but maybe any surfer typ thing for the mags game could be the east stand right in the middle? So the TV cameras see it.

The red and white flags look great in the south and the 2 corners. Will be even better in the build up to the mags game.

Whatever yous do, I’ll contribute and bring the kids to help the day before if needed.

What we do have to be mindful of if we have any anti Saudi / pro rainbow or whatever flags or signs is that there's some deadbeats in our support that boo the knee. Was pathetic at the match today

Hard to come across as decent morale compass when we boo the knee and that's half our team doing it today.

I agree with showing the mags up for what they've done / sold out for but like I say difficult to do when we stand out negatively like that. Especially with it being on TV

Yeah too many today like. Dont mind a few but support the lads I say.

I can't believe some people still clap the knee, about 2 years after all normal people rejected the BLM rubbish for what it was. Madness.

Normal society yes. Everyone rejected after being initially hoodwinked/desperate to be see supporting it.
Sky, most the players, MPs, most of normal society.
You still have a few race baiters, trolls, and confused souls that still support it. But normal people don't

@DonaldDownTheWing what options are you considering? Or is it going to be a surprise?

Are you saying normal people boo the knee?

No, it's quite clearly an anti racism gesture, as has been stated about 1,000,000 times by football authorities ,players etc. But you keep fantasising it's some sort of marxist conspiracy creeping into the game.

Not going to go into it again on this thread. It was a BLM gesture. When they were found out they stopped doing it, but some too embarrassed to see that they'd been duped, carried on, declaring that their BLM kneel meant something else.
If you're expecting people to accept that you've changed the meaning of your kneel, you also have to accept that others will still see it as having its original (and continued) meaning. Which is why the whole thing should have been scrapped and a new gesture or traditional gesture used.

It's 100% the time to have a go at Newcastle's ownership.

State ownership is killing the game, plus it's our duty to remind them lot that they don't get to feel all warm and fuzzy about their current "success". Not only is the right thing to do, it being beamed around then world will be massively embarrassing for those fuckers.

Keep it matter-of-fact imo. Something that speaks to their fans, players and management.

There’s a user name I haven’t seen in a while. Is it the same one?

If you think the booing comes from "normal" people you are either one of the people that boo or don't see the people that boo.
