    Are you walking out on 60 mins or do you know many who are?
    A few lads I know are leaving on 60 mins and a few others are stopping away so I reckon there will be visible gaps.

    This is why it will all fall a bit flat.
    The majority on Twitter are going on the 6oth Minute and now some on the 69th.
    To have impact EVERYONE who takes part needs to act together.
    I don't blame anyone for doing it one bit but I can't go early.
    At full time I'll voice my displeasure at Pardew whilst clapping our players.
    Why will I clap our players?.... because they've still given me a lot of good memories over recent years and it will be the last time I'll see many of them I feel.

    it looks like 69th is becoming the most popular if my news feed is anything to go by.
    I reckon no more than 1/3 will walk then.

    I think Mike won't give a toss to be fair. He has the entry money and the pie and pint money from half time so no opportunities to earn from the fans will be missed.
    Pardew will stay no matter what as he's said he'll not walk so I fear it will all be in vain.

    It would put pressure on them and bring Ashley more bad publicity.

    I'll be leaving on the 69th minute and leaving my ST behind.

    After watching the Heed game last night I might just start going there instead.

    The point of the planned walkout is not so much believing that it will change anything. It's to actually do something. The protests against Pardew were broadcast on Monday and Tuesday. The Premier League is beamed all across the world and a mass walkout would make headlines. It may not achieve anything, but it's better than sitting doing nothing.

    All publicity is good publicity as far as Ashley is concerned.
    If it's not affecting his main business he doesn't care.

    No, I won't be joining in the walkout.
    Will be stopping to the end.
    Have a go and boo Pardew and applaud the players for one last time this season.

    I know someone who will be chucking their ST at Pardew if he walks past them. He'll get some fair old stick tomorrow.

    I'd attach it to a dumbell - although i'd have to find a good excuse to sneak that one into the ground.

    Just take Obi, he'd be able to walk in.

    I think MA will have an eye at next season's attendances. it won't go unnoticed. Whether he sacks Pardew or not, he will at least weigh the revenue loss against whatever it is he thinks Pardew has going for him. I'll be a bit surprised if Pardew is still the manager by 15 May

    I think he'll be sacked after the Liverpool game. Just my opinion though.

    Thing is, even IF Pards does get the boot, do we trust MA's judgement in the hiring of a new manager?

    Ashley would probably hire Steve Cotterill - An 'experienced' manager.

    Anyone else buying this "applaud the players" malarky? Fck that. There's two worth a round of applause. One plays for PSG, one for QPR. There isn't one person employed at NUFC worth spitting on, let alone a round of applause.
