In my opinion there’s a large amount of animosity and resentment towards NUFC supporters that dates from the Keegan days when we were Sky’s poster child. This is now playing itself out in attacks in the media and social media, the strawman being that if we don’t walk away from our club we support human rights abuses and a tyrannical regime. Of course our protests against Ashley were ignored by the sane people and supporters have always been treated as extras in a showbiz production. Now somehow we're supposed to have a say in who owns our club, applying moral standards that literally don’t apply to anyone else. I genuinely think it’s rooted in anti-Geordie sentiment - whether it’s people who hate the north east or pandering to people who do - and a general desire to shit on our good fortune and spoil the feel good factor. I think there are many people who see the north east as some sort of poverty stricken loserville and can’t stand anything which goes against that narrative. tldr: everyone hates us and we dont care

I’ll never forget old thingy

I’m sure they would be but they’re actually in League One, the old third division. And have been for several seasons

Seriously how rotten is football when a perma-wank manager like Bruce gets 8 million quid for doing an incompetent half arsed job? 8 million for having the club one place better than rock bottom? He’ll pretend he’s hard done by and should’ve been given a chance but he’s basically been holding out for the sack and the equivalent of a lotto win. Its crazy. Mike’s parting gift obviously…

It used to be they were the north east top dog. Then they dropped two divisions. Then they were the morally superior club until their star player became a convicted paedophile. Then they were the classy club until they were taken over by the chuckle brothers, had to repair their own seats and couldnt afford to repair the lifts. Now they’re the north east’s most liked club. Another made up accolade that nobody but them cares about. Its just sad

Farewell cabbage

Their moral high ground smells like shit. They can enjoy their away days to Fleetwood Town and Burton, they’d swap places in a heartbeat

Who cares about what other fans have to say? You’d expect most of them to abuse us, that’s the nature of football. They either already hate us or are jealous. Well boo hoo

I wouldn’t wish Ashley on anyone. He’s the football equivalent of a horrible disease which can only be cured with massive amounts of money after years of suffering

Deacon Blue Pop?

I’m fine with a soulless march to success 👍🏻

Probably because their 19 year old owner got his PIN taken away by mummy

Or join the circus

The thing is, these people who have suddenly discovered a deep concern for human rights in Saudi are getting air time because the takeover is big news. In a few days no one will be interested in hearing their gums flap

Yes, he’s just pretending he cares so the owners have to pay him off. He’s actually a lazy thick cunt who doesn’t give a shit. He’s basically stealing a living and he’s been rumbled everywhere he’s gone. I honestly don’t know how he keeps getting work.

No. He’ll be ‘badly treated’ as he pockets a 4million pay off for doing an absolutely shit half arsed job, the fat pudding faced fraud

He’s probably been hanging around in the lobby for hours and she’s tried to shake him off on the way to the lifts. Hey presto, world exclusive!

$8m in 10 years? I’m surprised it was as much as that, the fat cunt

Ooh Garage Project. Nice!

Bruce is saying he’d like to be given the chance to show what he can do under the new regime. I think they know exactly what you can do, Steve. That’s why it’s time to round up your stuff in a carrier bag, head home and book another holiday. A long one.

I couldn’t give a fuck what the media, other fans, the mackems, bleeding heart do gooders etc etc think. If we have new owners that invest in the club, and we make some progress after 14 years of rot and stagnation, Im going to fucking well enjoy it. We’re a football club ffs, go whinge at someone else

Nope.

There isnt a big enough sword

My contribution to this erudite discussion: Bruce fuck off out of my club you pudding faced bastard! Almost anybody would be an improvement….
