    I'm not sure I understand the point ! this clubs fans supported the club without question through many years and its sad to see such faith destroyed by mike Ashley. All those clubs were ****e when man united were good btw.

    the fact is you made an argument and I highlighted a huge issue with it , so rather than say yeah that's true youve created another irrelevant point ..

    Look mate I've lived this club day in day out before Ashley and after , so just take my word for it the guys taking the piss.

    My irrelevant point is you’re all acting like he’s destroyed something magnificent, it wasn’t, you just got pissed and went to the football like the rest of us, except you never won owt, ever.

    My other point was that you’re blaming Ashley for something that was largely out of his control, I.e. do you genuinely think you’d be competing with this current top 6 had Ashley not bought the club off that other fat mong?

    no im acting like he's a **** because he is ? whether you think much of my club matter little , but I assure you we are a bigger club than what we get served …. 20% possession at home to brighton … no disrespect to brighton because they played some good football today, but that shouldn't be happening. I mean ffs mike Ashley admitted in court he was lying to the fans and caught saying things like " they don't have any idea how horrible I can be" look mate you have no clue really you just base your opinion without having the full knowledge or experience …Take the piss all you want but like I say mike Ashley has ruined this club and I cant wait to see him gone even if it means relegation after relegation.

    ps we have won things including the eufa cup before it was renamed..

    Football fans love their club regardless of winning trophies. If you are not winning you want exciting football and some memorable moments.

    Ashley has strangled the fun out of football for toon fans.

    As a spurs fan I have seen the Toon do the opposite to us since 2005 so havd a lot of sympathy to be honest.

    I like watching spuds. It's what we could have been if our owner had a single ounce of ambition.

    So basically it boils down to you being just like every other non top 6 club now and you not liking it?

    Just because you have big crowds it doesn't mean you deserve success. We've all followed our team during **** times mate.



    You haven't won the UEFA cup btw.

    Think it was called the Fairs Cup before being renamed the UEFA Cup...pretty sure the toon won that back in the 1960s but could be wrong.

    no it boils down to being treated like **** and going backwards …. all fans complain were no different .. the issue is we cant get rid of the ****

    the fairs cup was in effect the same competition

    weve won the fa cup a few times too , but its all about being valued and respected mate and we get zero of either …

    Wasn't that invite only with qualification not based on league position or anything? Basically friendlies I thought.

    I always thought it was a completely different competition rather than a simple re naming of one. Happy to be corrected on it though.

    correct

    I don't know what the relevance is thought tbh … mike Ashley is a **** and shows his paying customers no respect and has no respect for the club and the badge they care dearly about ..

    these lads would be saying the same things , we cant all be wrong .

    Exactly mate, there's loads of clubs who's fans are in exactly the same position and just have to get on with it. Again, I don't buy this bollocks that you deserve better cos you've got a big fanbase.

    Sunderland have a big fanbase and had it far worse with Short but never seemed to bleat on like you lot.


    Even our one FA Cup was more recent than yours :bandit:

    He gave you Rafa Benitez when you were in the Championship ffs <laugh>

    As much as we don’t like fat Rafa... that’s punching well above your weight bro, that’s a real fact, no pun intended.

    I just disagree that you were much else before he supposedly wrecked your club. I get that he’s a bog-standard **** who doesn’t like your fans very much but compared to Venky’s, Allam, Bury, Pompey etc he’s pretty good.
