Like I explained the other day all we expect is for the team to put in the effort that is to be expected of a seemingly top sporting organisation and the majority of profits earned by reinvested in progressing the club.

What's the alternative to protesting? Do nothing? Whether it happens this season or 2-3 years down the line we are getting relegated.
Supporting your team when they need it most.

You're the only club that has theses ridiculous protests. We've never protested once and we've been in just as bad of a state as yous.

Supporting the team now is a case of justifying Ashley's way of running a football club. If we stay up, we'll probably just go down next season instead. He has absolutely no intention of doing anything but existing in an noncompetitive state in the Premier League to keep collecting the money.

From what I can see, you get the best personnel available to you and strive to compete in every competition you enter. That's the fundamental difference in the two clubs

I'm sure the club has spent £30 million on transfers this season, that's more than the profits just announced.

£18.7m + £34.1m = £30m now? Glad you're not my accountant.

Your lot hounded out Allardyce - You got relegated.

Your lot hounded out Pardew - You may be relegated.

I've never known a set of supporters who have such a misplaced sense of entitlement. You're a laughing stock. Long may it continue.

I'm guessing you know that was the season after, right?
 
Even at the worst of time's we've not been half as bad as them, even under Bruce, a few fat geordie bastard chants but no f***ing pathetic protests against a chairman who is making the club money and pumping money into it and the team and yet they claim to be amazing fans, just a bunch of f***ing idiots 99% of them.
 
You finished 2nd, twice about 20 years ago, and that's it. No cup wins, no titles - nothing. You have been shit for God knows how long yet you still seem to think that you're a massive club with expectations of winning the title. It's ridiculous.

Your lot hounded out Robson for daring to finish 4th, then complained about Pardew for his entire tenure. Now you're saying his 5th place is some kind of high watermark in the history of the club. Your contradictions are almost as laughable as your delusions of grandeur.

Show me where I've said that please? Then I may address the rest of your point.

I thought you won the transfer window though? Not worked out so well then.

You would not have been relegated if you'd kept Allardyce, I'm certain of that.

Where does the sense of entitlement, which many of your fans have, come from?
 
Where did I say that?
Your fans proclaimed it, did mean you.

And us signing the best personnel available to us is a laugh, there all f***ing shite. Only a point better off than your lot.

Nee protests from our fans. How many you had this year? 10?
 
According to this open letter to Richard Branson asking him to buy them, that's exactly what they want. Just a couple of wins against the Mackems
:lol:
@NUFCTheMag: Open letter to Sir Richard Branson #nufc @richardbranson @Fozzyworld @nufcthemag http://t.co/V6yos4plt7

f***ing hell man, why on earth would Richard Branson want to buy the Mags? I'm no expert on the bloke but if he'd ever been interested in buying a football club he would have done so by now, given that he has been pretty rich for a fair few years. Why get involved now with the most mental club in England and spunk all his fortune away?
 
Right. Tin hat on. I don't blame the skunks for being pissed off, or for doing something about it. Of course they have a sense of entitlement and go over the top about their famous number 9s, the 52000 screaming Geordies, beating Barcelona and Man Utd once twenty years ago, etc, etc, etc.

But I don't blame them for being pissed off for having money in the bank, while they spend none of it.

We've made consistently bad decisions in the last few years, and have actually been run far worse than Newcastle (shite decisions and a continuing loss rather than shite footballing decisions and a profit), but at least in our case we can hope against hope that if the owner of SAFC ever works out, after 7 years in charge, how to run a football club, then he might have some genuine ambition to get into the top half consistently. They don't even have that hope. I don't see how anybody can honestly say they wouldn't be pissed off in that position.

Of course I hope that they go down, and then go down again (or at least stay in the Championship for years).

But making out that the mismanagement up the road is somehow something they deserve, or the fault of the fans, or even something to do with that football club, is spectacularly shortsighted. It is what has happened to football, where owners with no affiliation to the clubs, the area, or the sport. And it has happened to us too, where Sunderland AFC is now owned by a Texan hedge fund billionaire whose programme notes on Saturday were bragging about the way we avoid relegation every year.

And it's shit.
 
You would not have been relegated if you'd kept Allardyce, I'm certain of that.

Total conjecture. That season we'd played all of the easier games in Allardyce's half of the season, the January-March of that season was an absolute killer.

I speak for myself, not the rest of the fanbase.

Big Sam was hounded out when you's were mid-table.

As was Roeder, Souness and Pardew.

Anyone would think mid-table isn't good enough for the mags.
 
£18.7m + £34.1m = £30m now? Glad you're not my accountant.

£30 million is more than £18.7 million is it not?

I'm guessing you know that was the season after, right?

Ah, yes. I think the general consensus amongst Newcastle fans was Allardyce would have relegated the club that season, so in effect, Mike Ashley saved the club from an earlier relegation by bringing in Keegan.

They've spent £30m this season. Who's to say their profits wont be reinvested this summer, or even paid off the £129million loan they owe Ashley (you know, the debt the previous owners left who seem to escape any blame)?

Are you just ignoring the £34.1m put into a cash reserve, then?

Ashley's mindset seemed to be different then and that was in a time when he was in favour with the support. It was after their hatchet job on Keegan (proven in court) that the relationship between Ashley and the support turned sour.

Ah, the classic 'judge us in the summer'. In it's 4th iteration I believe this year.

No, you are. Your statement was "the majority of profits earned by reinvested in progressing the club". I simply replied that Ashley had already reinvested more than the latest profits posted by the club.

Are you seriously suggesting the club should spend every last penny it has in the bank on players?
 
They are basically attention seeking bellends. If they truly wanted to do something constructive to force his hand they'd not renew and find something else to do on a weekend. Instead they want to act like soppy drama queens. I wish they'd fuck off.
We wish you would.

Give ower man, Sima. As a decent Mag you must know that we've endured endless Shyte for the last 40 years. It's been an unmitigated diet of plain rubbish. But we just get on with it. Cos we know we're Shyte and we'll always be shyte. We have humble aspirations. We support in great numbers but we all know that we are what we are.

:lol:

Where has the £34.1m put into a reserve come from? Has it fallen off a tree? It's money put into a cash reserve from profits earned.
