The way to show up corruption is by chucking money about. Like that guy who chucked a wad of notes over Sepp Blatter. Unfortunately for them, I can't see the Benwell natives coming up with enough money to make the slightest bit difference. I've seriously got no idea how tennis balls aligns with corruption in football and what statement they're trying to make to the 'whole world' by lobbing them on a football pitch. Whoppers man
Aye we were arl sendin shockwaves roond tha wurld ya knars. Throwin pies on tha pitch like, A prootest from tha Geordie mafia like ya knars. when this steamin hot sausage rerl, (well they're on offa at greggs ya knar), hit us on me arm an burned me skin off.
Imagine having that picture taken on purpose. I mean what a ****ing mess. I don't know where to start
To be honest it's not even original. Hull City fans did that 20 odd years ago when David Lloyd owned them and wanted to move them from Boothferry Park to Hull rugby clubs ground. At least there was some logic to that, he was a former tennis player who owned sports and leisure clubs and the tennis balls had the protest slogan written on them. It was also advertised well in advance so it was hundreds of Hull fans involved and it delayed the kick off. This is just pathetic, they know it won't work but it makes them feel good as they can say they've done a protest. If they wanted a real protest they'd not go to matches, not buy merchandise or season tickets, but that woukd ruin the "52,000 screaming Geordies, passionate fans, special supporters" myth.
Any protest needs to be triggered by real anger otherwise it will always be half hearted. The problem the Mags have is that their issues are vague and 'suffered' by many other clubs. Firstly Ashley has lost interest and isn't spending as much as they'd like ... ... no big deal and, tbf, he's openly and actively trying to sell the club. If the club was what they believe people would be fighting to buy it. Secondly their proposed takeover didn't pan out ... ... but they know there are good reasons why and that the Saudis are more corrupt than Ashley will ever be. Only the 'flat earth Mags' really believe there's a secret agenda to keep them away from the top of the league. So they're actually protesting about a situation that clubs like Sheff Wed, Portsmouth, Huddersfield, etc, would love to be in. This is why they'll get very little sympathy, from other supporters, because only the top six have owners spending big money, showing real ambition or having much chance of ever winning anything.
I've Read it, it's all ifs and buts. It's relying on 2 court cases going in Ashley's favour, one of them at the end of the month. I can imagine that if the Saudi's were granted permission to take over the Mags, BeIn Sports and the Qataris would lodge an appeal straight away over the piracy issues. To be honest I've thought for years she's a poor journalist. I remember her touting Ossie Ardiles as SAFC manager when Reid was sacked, and bigging up "libro Lee" (Rob Lee) for a spot in the 2002 world cup squad as a sweeper. I find her a bit hard to take seriously, especially after she wrote a puff piece about Qatar's world cup bid and didn't declare tgst she'd has an expenses paid trip to Qatar paid for by them
And thirdly they’re a bunch of deluded half wits that think….. apologies they don’t think, that’s the problem with the self important twats. I must sound like a broken record when I post about the shop shouting prats, I know loads of good Mags but even half of them change when football is mentioned. Stick to punching horses and dribbling gravy. Ya just divvent understand, aye I do understand ya bedsheet bastards.
I used to get angry with the Mags but things have definitely changed. It used to be dodgy going to SJP but the walk from CS has become a bit of laugh tbh. They line the streets, along the way, but never have a real go and are easily scattered if they chance their arm. And the endless twisting has become hysterical, seriously they're a continuous source of fun ... ... imagine if we had neighbours like Fulham who go up and down the leagues without insane attacks on everyone they take offence to.
Ya not wrong mate they’re a complete joke they whinge more than a Liberal in North Korea. And the iron fence the twats get at the SoL what’s all that about, 3 coppers and a gust of wind stops the scruffy ****s up Sid James.
If @Somebodys pinched my sombrero is looking for a good tennis ball deal, this ones a good one, and the yellow balls will show up well on TV.
