What the ****? Have I gone mad? probably already was. What the hell is going on in this thread? We were outplayed not surprising looking at the money that has been hoyed at them via Saudi Arabia The giving them the whole end was a complete joke The Black cats bar carry on was a complete shambles However HTL FTM
The matter of the last few days won't get brushed under the carpet and people won't forget. Apologies on Instagram don't cut the mustard for that level of incompetence. The reputation damage and negative PR will lead to someone senior going the journey. Rightly so. If KLD truly didn't know about it, find it bizarre given many normal fans did before Christmas and mentioned it plenty of times. He needs to be closer the the action of employ higher quality of staff who won't make these errors again.
Banging the same drum too long eventually gets on the nerves of even those who agree in my experience. You've made your points well, some agree some don't ... ... but rearranging the words and making the same point again and again weakens an argument imo. I'd guess most people have other things to think about.
You are wrong and right here Nev, I am ****ing disgusted (I know a good joke about that phrase but would get a ban) about the way our club welcomed Saudi Arabia into the stadium of light, but we need to let it go, so you are correct there
You've just posted exactly the same thing on the match thread mate ... ... there comes a point where debating becomes lecturing imo. I don't even disagree with you but you've been crystal clear with what you think. I just don't see the point of repeating it on multiple threads. You're not going to change anything and probably not people's minds. It's just a shame that the match thread is still full of it when there are plenty of other suitable threads. RTB does a cracking job imo.
As I've said several times before, I do bits and pieces for a non-league club (actually, recently changed clubs), like several others on here. What I do means that I can often be in amongst the fans on a matchday. It's interesting how often they've picked up on a bit of info about the club but embellished it with rumour and assumptions and come to a conclusion that's completely inaccurate. The same.principle applies here. We don't know the whole truth about the situation and there are conflicting stories doing the rounds. What we do know is that KLD is not happy about it. So maybe let's stop assuming that everything is terrible behind the scenes and that KLD doesn't know what he's about. We could all be very wrong. The club does need to do some work on the non-football side but I'm pretty sure the people at the top will want it to be running properly.
Things get out of proportion quickly when strong emotions are in play. This is the whole basis of Sportswashing. My instinct is to see the good in KLD which to me is he’s not Donald and Methven. He’s a kid using SAFC to learn the art of club ownership. He was 12 when his dad died, a very talented businessman and football club owner it’s not hard work out his motivations. He’s going to **** up quite a bit and unfortunately he’s chosen a very bad time to do so. Saudi money has influenced a lot of people and I don’t blame him if that’s what happened. It’s not like they waved a bunch of tenners in his face, NUFC is now part of a slick PR campaign of a real-life Bond villain worth $18bn employing world class lawyers, negotiators, bullshitters and liars. We got outmanoeuvred and outgunned on and off the pitch by these ****ers, we aren’t the first and we won’t be the last. What I don’t understand is abusing KLD with rent boy metaphors and demanding he gets “sacked” as if there’s another rich Arab supervillain just waiting to buy the club.
The Vermont announce massive makeover plans after a recent boom in bookings from the Newcastle United squad. The players heard the news and couldn't get down there to show their support quick enough
I was told it was an issue with the security guards, they ( the signage company) just bolled in and started setting up, without contacting their bosses. I asked Steve yesterday he said it's being investigated and the answers will be passed on to us. This will not be a white wash.
Oh FFS! Davison “looking” into it. That isn’t an issue with security guards, it’s an issue with Facilities Management.They don’t have to contact their bosses, they will have a contact on site. Your information is coming from the bloke who is culpable and has a few more calamities under his watch, so I don’t fancy him holding his hands up and saying, “yes I’m ****ing useless”.
