Paul Merson's grinding his never ending axe against us again saying we missed out on the killer signing that would have kept us up. Other than the fact he played for Middlesbrough for one very bad season, I don't see the problem he has with us.
Desperate to stay relevant. He talks rubbish 99% of the time. They only have him on Soccer Saturday because the other pundits like someone to laugh at. His pronunciation of names and knowledge of what’s actually taking place provides that amusement for them.
Half the time he can't even string a sentence together, so I don't pay any attention to him except to laugh at him. But he does seem to have something against NUFC.
It's wierd cos he really hasn't nothing in his past to do with us. He chose to systematically destroy his career by dropping down a league to move to Middlesborough, but he only had one season there, and is hardly an honorary Mag hating Smoggie. And yes his "punditry" is godawful slurred monosyllabic drivel.
It's partly due to how nufc fans react... They bite and can send him bile and abuse on social media. He then thinks that's why I hate nufc and the cycle continues. They haven't the brains to not poke a snake with a stick! The same thing happens with hairy hands. If they just ignored them it would never have happened
Also don’t forget his beloved Arsenal are one of the clubs who will be directly affected by our rise.
Plus pissheads and cokeheads are generally knackers when they take it as far as he did. He was already thick as **** so shovelling a ton of Charlie up his beak, while drinking himself into oblivion probably killed his remaining brain cells. It’s not even worth reacting to really, he should really be pitied.
Urgh it's ****in society media, happens to everyone, if it's influencing your opinions, then you clearly need to stay off it. OK I have sympathy for him, cos he's obviously clearly very damaged from the drugs, booze and gambling, but if its made him so weak that his mantra is "waaah Newcastle fans give me **** on social media so I have to say their team is gonna lose all the time", then he clearly needs to steer well clear of social media and punditry.
I never said I agree with it I just know know how arseholes work. That's the entire basis behind the age old saying that you shouldn't poke a snake with a stick. If you're going to bitch and moan at them then you have to take it back without bitching and moaning.
I'd just be surprised if that's the reason for his bitterness against us, which seems to raise its head literally every time he mentions us. I'm sure other team's fans give him **** as well, yet where the only team he seems to have a eons old vendetta against. Tbh his grudge against us seems to have gone on way longer than social media has been around. Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if he just picked a random team and chose them as a target to vent all his bitterness about being broke, being a druggy, boozer, his failed marriages blah blah.
Of course it's not because hed have to have said things nufc didn't like and they'd have had to react to it. He doesn't like nufc and fans don't have the nouse to ignore him. Let other fans do it.
I agree in a way. I don’t think it’s an axe to grind against us. He just doesn’t want to move in from the 90’s. He also hates Man City. He hates Chelsea. He wants it to go back to the day he remembers which was Arsenal winning. That’s all I think it is.
You do have an obsession with slapping our fan base with a wide ranging stick. I don’t think we can do that here? The group that is nufc fans do not in the main have an agenda against PM as far as I can see. Come on man: your one of us. Every club has the minority or spunk funkers.
I don't think our cockney mafia chants appealed to them down south and there's always been a thing there
No I just know how it works..... If you're a **** to someone that's being a **** they'll be a ****. It's common sense. All clubs have them..... I never said otherwise..
That’s all well and good but at least one side of the argument has to be right: Let’s be honest. It doesn’t really matter what PM thinks now because his attitude will always be anti nufc: and that’s regardless of retaliation or nufc fan prejudice. Again I don’t recall any reason for him to legit hate us or skate us other than his hate towards modern football.
Agree all clubs have them: so we are no different. And thus it removes the “the Geordies are self needy, expect top champions league football status”. That the media portray us as/ when most of us just want progression. And merse just hates the fact that we are actually going to have a team that does indeed try. So honestly **** him and his selfish needs. He’s just as jealous as the mackems.
PM is just a has been footballer who hates modern football and he’s bias. His opinions are completely irrelevant now because modern football has moved on. We are just the newest team to come into money and a regime that has ambition. It just so happens that ours is akin to world domination. With endless pots of gold. And our journey is just at the beginning. And Merse: hates it. Make no mistake if PIF had taken over Arsenal he would have a totally different opinion. Then it would be “get over it”!
