That depends…… half of them are gonna cry if they don’t get priority for friendly matches coz they was super fans who turned their back on the team and the regime and therefor got rid of Ashley
At least those people tried to do something about Ashley. I've no respect for the people who kept going and left it up to others to walk away protest and kept going just so they could guarantee their seat if/when the takeover happened. Those people weren't prepared to sacrifice anything for the club they claim to support. The true fans walked.
Away match versus Benfica arranged and confirmed for 26th July https://www.nufc.co.uk/news/latest-news/united-to-face-benfica-in-eusebio-cup/
Or they actually thought they could have little influence on the ownership and wanted to watch Newcastle play. I reckon the majority of people who stopped going did so because the football had got very boring. Look at Chippy - he didn't give up his season ticket in protest. It was either due to being bored with the show or as it was a waste as he was shagging Pouchy's wife every weekend while Pouchy was in his hospitality suite.
So we’re playing Benfica. The same Benfica where Darwin Nunez plays. Hmmm…… I wonder…… could it be…….? @Rumsfield
