No!

As I’ve said previously you only need to develop a player good enough to be sold to a championship side now and again for the academy to pay for itself. Anything else is a bonus. Every club should invest on that basis alone but it’s even stupider not to given the way we operate

You’re not clever enough for this.

If nowt else there’s the potential for hilarity by his picking this of all seasons to go full soopafan

I was talking to some fans on Sunday who actually believed the owners version of events.

Sign a good young player, sell them on for a profit in a season or two at the most. Or that’s the plan. The other things require time, knowledge, long term investment, giving a fuck about the club beyond making money, etc. Basically he’s never shown any interest beyond getting through the season at hand. He’ll never change

I doubt we’ll have to worry about the latter

Without getting into the naivety required to believe Ashley again and the arbitrary nature of such a deadline the point is a short term symbolic gesture is likely to achieve fuck all. The second you buy a season ticket you lose all leverage and give your tacit approval to the owner, whether you like it or not. I can understand people still wanting to go more than I can understand not going to a game you’ve paid for.

Buying a season ticket and boycotting is like crashing the car you just bought to piss off the dealership.

On the money, so he is

Unlikely but it’s good to see you back to your default position

You thought about a side bet on how many months Carroll will be a fortnight away from being fit?

Only NUFC could manage a shite boycott and a shite atmosphere on the same day

Another decade or 3 and he might stop trying to take the moral high ground in every single situation

That’s the best thing tbh. People tell people to get behind the team then turn up and sit there in silence. The mineral water drinking cunts

Looks like someone had a fun day

Latest proposed extension of the stop and search powers is really about the potential civil unrest in the wake of a no deal Brexit

Even I’ve been shocked by the amount of halfwits who seem to be blindly buying into the notion that ‘getting behind the team’ and ‘giving Bruce a chance’ is the only option for the ‘true fan’. Likewise nearly as many seem to think Rafa’s a greedy cunt and Ashley tried his best to keep him here to no avail. I’ll happily revel in those cunts’ misery

Typical mackem, more bothered about us than them

Can’t work out whether or not being pleased we lost is an improvement on apathy

We must get behind Bruce. Support the team, get behind the lads. And other assorted shite from all the usual sources.

Heard some canny unpleasant rumours about the way he treated her when they were together too
