  1. presumably people who attended the meeting did so with an open mind; i can't possibly claim to know the conclusions of all those who attended, but only 2 people said they wouldn't come to subsequent meetings. consequently i don't think it is accurate to state that people felt it was either a waste of time, or that we have zero powers to bring about change. perhaps there is a stronger appetite for demonstration now because people are now concerned about the fate of NUFC; that's my perception, though i realise it may not be yours. you have the democratic right to either join or ignore us......
  2. i'm fine; i just wonder about the false sentimentality relating to Sir Bobby, when compared to actual grief you know....
  3. my dad was about a year younger than Sir Bobby & he passed away in the Freeman Hospital of cancer, the day after Sir Bobby. this is always a sad time for me; it may be 4 years but i miss my old fella every day - i still talk to him in fact. RIP Eddy & Sir Bobby.
  4. i'm 48; 49 on august 11th, if you'd like to send me a card. why do you insist on making this a personal crusade? i think you'll find you were in a minority of 1 last time when you attempted to round up a cyber posse for an on-line lynching; perhaps you can learn from that. let's stick to the issues please & keep the infantile name-calling out of it.
  5. you don't need to justify yourself to me you know as i say, the campaign isn't over, so people can join whenever they want, or choose not to; if we fail, we fail, to quote the Scotch play..... it's a shame you've decided not to offer technical support, but that's your choice one thing you're completely wrong about is the last line of your post; i'm not going to the West Ham game, but i've 2 friends staying over that weekend from Roscommon & Kildare who are going - i've never, ever said anything about out of town support
  6. we'll agree to differ then, as i find it fairly precise. come along to the next meeting if you've any questions, or email them direct
  7. http://www.nufcfansutd.com/about-nufcfansutd.html explains things pretty comprehensively
  8. come along to the next meeting and find out for yourself, or check the website out http://www.nufcfansutd.com/about-nufcfansutd.html
  9. i think of this more as a semi Socratic organisation
  10. that's your opinion; it's good that you've thought of a justification for your inaction. i don't share your opinion, but i recognise your right to hold it & i won't use energy to criticise you as a person for holding those opinions.
  11. that's your opinion; it's equally as valid as mine, though i don't agree with you. in a democracy all are free to express their opinions
  12. it's a democracy; people have different opinions. what i advocate is different to what many others believe.
  13. but it isn't over yet; the campaign can grow, so the more that attend, the better...

  15. as above.... democratically, their voices are as valid as anyone else's/
  16. democratically, their voices are as valid as anyone else's/
  17. because we need to represent every fan; unless we do, we don't know whether there are common, thematic opinions. if you attend the meeting, it's 1 more fan & 1 more step to authenticity....
  18. you could have made those points at the meeting tonight; as we are a democracy, you could have persuaded people to agree with your stance. but you weren't there.....
  19. do you? i think you should have attended the meeting tonight to put your point across. democratically, you could have influenced people to your point of view, if you'd been there
  20. in a democracy, everyone has an equal say. nufc fans united is a democracy; come along tomorrow & join in Newcastle Fans
  21. we don't need leaders; we need an organic democratic structure
  22. the more members we have; the more legitimate & coherent our voice becomes. we have a meeting at 6.30 at the Labour club on Wednesday
  23. for him to be right, the situation would require not one single person to be interested in my post. this is disproved by the fact i posted it in the first place; therefore, it's wrong to say nobody is interested in my post. logically, it's not a difficult concept to master.
