This seems to be the way to do it.


Yep. Said it when Hicks and Gillett were here. Boycotts and empty stands have a greater impact than not buying a pie and a programme

Fair play

And yep, that’s the way to do it. I imagine the Newcastle 3rd round tie will be close to sold out today.
If he's being asked to head the ball too frequently - which isn't exactly his specialty - it could affect his ear and cause an infection. Especially if the ball hits him on the ear directly.

What empty stands did we provide? I remember the hopelessness of trying to persuade anyone to boycott at the time of Torres and Gerrard in their pomp; it was only that a year later the bank loan became due and provided an opportunity, with several seizing the opportunity to rally the troops, that finally protests began to be made.

We didn't, but I have always felt we should have. I think had we done things would have moved much faster. Newcastle's situation has gone on for so long now they need to take that step

Some fans like myself gave up tickets I know a few others who did. But you are right it was hard boycotting or taking part in the marches when you were passing people who just looked and didn't really look bothered.

Newcastle don't have banks to hassle, so boycotting the ground seems the best way to me. And while we didn't for H&G, the walk out over ticket prices did the trick, for the most part.

The comparison between Bournemouth and Newcastle was a weird one. Newcastle made 12 million pound more in prize money from the Premier League (£123 million last season) and have a stadium 5 times the size. So are £50 million better off from those 2 revenue streams alone while Bournemouth have spent nearly £60 million more in transfers,

 👏👏. If Rafa loves Newcastle as he says - spend some of his own money. He’s got enough. Management is about teamwork - why should it always be Ashley? Buy it. It’s still for sale. They’re in the bottom 3 & Rafa is responsible. He picks the team.

This idiot surely having a laugh. I refuse to believe someone can be this thick and employed as a football pundit. Do these pricks ever speak like this about the likes of Fat Sam, Dyche or Colin Wanker? Do they bollocks like.

wasnt there some tripe about not signing players in case they get injured?

may as well never sign anyone so

“I will get to know him, but my issue is – it’s got nothing to do with, like, business dealings that I’ve got with his company – I just think that, listen, when they went down, he’s spent £50-odd-million to get them back up, of his own money. ‘Thank you’, that should be.”

When it was put to him that Newcastle actually generated more money through player sales than they spent on signings in the summer they were promoted, Ferdinand simply replied: “Well he’s the owner.

this is bizarre, practically all of their outgoings were covered by selling wijnaldum and sissoko
