And that pretty much sums up how I feel. I can honestly say that I have never craved instant success and was happy with how things were going up until the point he chose Wise over Kev, I was happy for things to take a slower progresion knowing that the team was in the hands of someone who would give their all for us and bring back the football we wanted. If Ashley had just let Kev manage as you'd expect a manager to do then he would have been up there with the best owners for me. Sadly it wasn't to be, I do feel a little sorry for Ashley if his statement is true, maybe he was just ill-advised. On a side note I do think if he'd not appointed Keegan and it had been anyone else the fans wouldn't have been anywhere near as bothered, and because of that I'd be very surprised if a new owner brought Keegan back for a third stint at manager risking the wrath of the fans if something went wrong. Whether it was the boycotting of sales or the general anger shown towards Ashley and his regime that has brought this about I guess we'll never know, we're just left to wonder now what the next chapter at the NUFC circus will bring.

I think thats the point Gemmills making though, a fan who goes to the game and wears an Ashley out t-shirt has more right to do the things he does than those who sit at home watching it unfold on the box. Im not sure I agree with him fully on the whole "you dont go so fuck off" but I can definitely see the logic. Shoudl this club ever be relegated and fall it will us that have to stand in the cold at Shrewsbury and the like while the worst that happens to armchair fans is they cant choose to fast forward through us on MOTD anymore. Not having a personal go there btw. Again for the record though I think you're all entitled to slag off Henda all day long tbh. See but that's what I didn't want this to turn in to, I don't agree that just because someone goes to a match their opinion holds more weight. It's down to common sense, to be honest I think we really are all on the same side in this nonsense, for what it's worth.

point being It would have went through normally...seeing as i don't live near the ground I used the club shop many times. and Ashley's shops round here don't really stock any nufc gear (like i said in a previous thread) what'd you do in way of protest anyways Gemmill, superfan that you are and all. Fuck all. I never buy any NUFC gear and I never buy anything from the shop at the match. So you didn't do anything about the situation and yet you and Tom want to tell us we don't have the right to voice our opinions. Right ho. I chanted Keegan's name, I applauded the Cockney Mafia OUT lads. Oh and I went to the match. How's the weather in France today? Average sadly but should be better next week. I don't think Mike Ashley's shitting himself about my opinion or yours but I still think a bloke who can't go to a match and not buy a pint when he's supposedly trying to voice his disapproval is laughable. It's just a bit of a shame that somehow people who supposedly want the same thing are trying to pull rank because they're at the game and others can't be. The question is what is worse? Someone who can be there but sits idly by or someone who can't be there but wants to do something? It's a fine line I guess. You're hilarious. "I reeeeeally want to do something but I can't possibly be there unfortunately. What's that? What am I doing that stops me from being there? Just....you know.........stuff. If I was there though I'd be doing fucking all sorts." I think if you were me you probably wouldn't be there either. 'Fans' like you deserve all the mid-table obscurity at best, relegation threatening crap that comes along with scum like now run our club, it's just a shame that the rest of us have to go along with it as well. Fucking hilarious. I'm sure it'll be a real hardship for you. Amazing Keep on keeping on mate. You are the ultimate boycotter. Your argument advocates going to the games and still buying stuff from the ground, while the "non resident" protest involves not buying merchandise. Which do you think Ashley is worried about? There are more Newcastle supporters that don't go to matches than those who do. Tens of thousands of people not buying has a big impact. I don't advocate buying stuff from the ground. But nor do I advocate vilifying someone that does. As for who Ashley is more worried about - I couldn't say. I won't be going to any cup games and I think that if a lot of people take the same stance Ashley would absolutely shit himself as stuff like that has the power to turn a profit-making club into a loss-making one. Keep not buying stuff from the shop btw - I fully support that, I'm just not happy with turning up on here having watched that shower of shit today, and finding a couple of lads that never have to suffer it in person taking the piss out of someone that does. So do you think that because I don't 'suffer it in person' it hurts any less? That I have less right to be angry with what is happening? Be as angry as you like but don't tell match going fans how they're going about things the wrong way, how they deserve mid-table mediocrity, or any of the other shite you've come out with recently. I'm off to bed. Us match-going fans get tired before the rest of you. Oh okay, if you go to the match you can be exempt from criticism for fucking up then, that's okay then. Fucking soopa-fan prick, goodnight.

I wonder who the 'four parties vying for control' are?

'Fans' like you deserve all the mid-table obscurity at best, relegation threatening crap that comes along with scum like now run our club, it's just a shame that the rest of us have to go along with it as well. I dont normally get involved in the "you dont go so fuck you" arguments but that last post is a pisstake shirley???? 'Fans' like you deserve all the mid-table obscurity at best -- what? fans that actually fund this club by buying season tickets? going to cup games on a freezing Wednesday in January? and generally those of us that had to sit through the shower of shite we were served up today, most of last season, all the season before that and generally many of the past years? I dont doubt that you have a liking (even a loving) for the toon but you will never have the right to call any fan who actually attends the games while you sit there forwarding through the shite on Sky+. ps If you are going to do that then dont even bother turning MOTD on tonight because you'll need it on 32x for the duration (even then Shola wont move much ) oh and for the record, I dont agree with Gemmill on the subject of this, I think the original poster was at best moronic for buying a pint. To be fair Pud that's not what I was implying, I've got every respect for the fans that can make it to the ground or stand in the driving rain on a cold night and have paid for their tickets in advance to this fiasco. My 'Fans' like you deserve all the mid-table obscurity at best' was aimed at those fans (even the ones inside) who choose to defend people who buy things from inside the club or club merchandise since all this kicked off.

I'll be avoiding the front entrance like the plague after the game. Cringe-tastic! Yeah, best not to support anyone trying to make a change at the club eh? Honestly mate are you literally having a laugh? Did you sit with your back to the telly when Final Score came on? Hey if you're happy with the way things are that's fine. How can I be happy when I know how sad it's making you? Ohhh I get it now, you're actually on a downer with things at the club but you're having problems directing it at the right people so you're trying to make yourself feel better by winding people up on an internet forum. Okay, congrats, you can have a gold star, I'll try my hardest not to bite on your daftarse comments anymore.

Piece of piss though isn't it. Much like not ordering stuff from the club shop is. Is it sinking in yet? Don't shout the odds telling people how to protest effectively when the sum total of your effort is to not buy stuff from a website. It's hardly our fault if some of the people allegedly trying to protest are too thick to do it properly though is it.

Regardless of that though I do believe that we all (certainly the majority) want Ashley out, I think if anyone's daft enough to buy something linked to the club in the current climate is asking for trouble.

Out of curiosity, are you wanting Mike Ashley out of the club? I mean what's your opinion of people boycotting sales of NUFC merchandise and anything that provides an income to Mike Ashley? What do you think of the protests outside of the ground? And Tom, similar question to you, IF you'd had the money would you have bought a ticket if available and gone to the match? Just asking like. I would love Mike Ashley to sell up. I'm going to no cup games unless things take a dramatic turn and I won't be buying any club produce although I never do. The protests outside the ground are fine, but I don't choose to go to them. There were people buying pints and scran at half time today when I went for a piss and I did wonder why they couldn't just wait til after the match, but at the same time they're perfectly entitled to do what they want. By the way, the way you go on on here, the way you paint yourself as this super-passionate fan railing against the NUFC establishment, I'm surprised you haven't jumped on a train to head up here and get involved. Too much hassle though I imagine. I have my reasons for not coming up to Newcastle. Your views are pretty much the same as mine, apart from the people that are doing what they want, I just can't understand the mentality of them buying stuff, it makes no sense if they're as angry as I am about the departure of Kev. Saying that I suppose there is the chance that some of them actually aren't bothered that Kev's gone. You do surprise me a little by the way you choose to have a dig at me for being against Ashley's regime rather than those who support it, however unmeaningfully they're doing it.

Give over Gemmill, at least the ones making the noise are actually likely to have an effect in the long run - wearing a half-thought out fucking t-shirt but still lining Fat Cunt's pockets isn't going to achieve a thing.

Anyone buying anything from inside the ground or any chain belonging to the Fat Cunt that is Mike Ashley isn't one of us - fucking scab, you type like a fucking charva, you act like a fucking charva and you can fuck off like a fucking charva, fucking 'innit' indeed.

Pffft, fucking Scab!

One city isn't going to make any difference, certainly nothing major. Face it, we're screwed unless real protests take hold and he gets upset with the constant bad publicity.

Don't be so sure, he claims to have bought this club as a personal interest, it's unlikely he'll miss something he's paid such a large amount of money for - he might not be at the ground but he'll be watching.

Fucking club's a fucking joke

Quality, looks like the team is being well coached in Kev's absence then...

Wouldn't have happened if Keegler was in charge...

That makes sense, sounds like the stewards have confiscated any banners brought in to the ground.

I'll be avoiding the front entrance like the plague after the game. Cringe-tastic! Yeah, best not to support anyone trying to make a change at the club eh?

So no protest then?
