Would be great if they would...but they are owned by an organisation with direct links to someone who is the driving force in one of the more repressive regimes on the planet with lots of human rights issues - and the bulk of their supporter base doesn't seem unduly concerned by this. My guess is their appetite to join in a protest against 'dodgy' ownership in football is likely to be fairly limited these days!! Just shows it wasn't really the 'dodginess' of Ashley that was the issue - more his unwillingness to spend any meaningful money.
This applies to the bulk of their fans - to be fair there are some of their fan base who have expressed much concern about the Saudi ownership
I’ll chant Arabs in on 16 and 76 minutes if it helps our cause. They might even hear it an offer a round of beheadings as retribution for Glenn

It really doesn’t matter who we appoint . Yeah we might get a new manager bounce and we might stay up for another season but the club as a whole is set up to fail . This is just kicking the can down the road. Eustace, rowett, hughes, neill, Mowbray Ben benson. It really doesn’t matter until we get things right at boardroom level.
I honestly don’t care who they appoint the outcome is the same

I’d say he’s created an additional narrative rather than replacing the old one.
Of course that still helps him - if people let it…
They will

JDT to Eustace is a downgrade. ‘Happy’ with the appointment purely because it isn’t Stuart McCall. Every day shows show far we’ve fallen. We all know Benson and Lowe will remain.
I agree and I don’t know what makes me sicker. The club propaganda or the mugs that fall for it

I think they just enjoy the line where were you when we were in league one on a cold Tuesday night . They like playing the super fan hero and the less that go the better they think they look. Thinks it makes them more loyal and care more when there just damaging the one thing we all have the same love for

EVERYONE LOOK OVER HERE
SHINY NEW MANAGER
GET BEHIND THE LADS
Protests and chants should be doubled just to get this smarmy skin saving parasitic prick out faster
edit. Sad thing is it’s probably worked because the Sean of the dead crew can’t see past there noses

Could we not reach out to the Newcastle fan base and tell them this is our Mike Ashley times a million and from a football perspective not team v team come together and help fight the biggest disease in football. If all four sides of the ground and all those fans could just give us a venkys out chant on 18 and 75 minutes or something would make massive worldwide headlines. They as fans know what it’s like going through this and let’s be honest they will be 3 up by half time .

Williams (player of the season that year if I remember correctly) was as good a full back as Pickering. Mulgrew was a better centre half than Hyam. Lenihan was a better centre half than Carter. I'd take Craig Conway on the wing over Dolan, much more end product.
It didn't have a player like Szmodics but it did have more goal scorers in it with Graham, a better version of Gallagher, Emnes and Joao.
The midfield if you include Wharton (but we don't have him anymore) was stronger.
And raya was miles better than these two clowns we have now

The fans need to demand another meeting with waggot a laptop(after an extensive computer course) and one of those venky bastards on a zoom call. We as fans and them as owners deserve half an hour of a zoom call after the shit they have put us through and if they can’t be arsed turning up the least they can do is sit on the mansion and do a zoom call. We don’t want lies and platitudes from your puppets anymore. It’s been 13 fucking years and we demand half an hour of your time.

The fans did right in going and saying there piece. I thank and applaud them for it. However you are representing the fan base I.e the rest of us who weren’t there. Trust and transparency have been two of biggest issues. Everything said at that meeting should be shared or you are undoing your own excellent work by basically giving yourself an NDA when fans are crying out for the truth . The fans are all one and everything should have been made available. Sadly that’s where you leave me disappointed and frustrated. But still I respect what you have done and said for us fans your repesenting.

One of the things for me is the Adam Wharton sale and not because I’m entitled and didn’t expect him to be sold eventually but the symbolic nature of the whole situation.
I don’t and can’t support the thieves and gangsters in India and our boardroom like the fans who have walked away.
Still it’s my club , my team , my colours, my badge , my fans and my players so I go and get behind the lads (ffs)
Wharton was one of our own like a lot of the kids who came through the academy jack set up , and for this very reason . Now though Travis and Buckley get shipped to reduce wages and whartons gone and who am I supporting . Brighton and liverpools kids til the end of the season. Five loans in that’s half a team who won’t be here next year I have no affinity to .
It’s hard to get emotionally involved when you’re being ripped off and over priced, not given a second thought and constantly lied to. The farce of the transfer window (again) highlighting the lies/cock ups/ disjointed thinking of the whole set up and scattergun approach to it ,plus, the sale of our Adam shows there is no model or anything to have hope for or belief in to keep throwing your support behind.
Still I’ve been going on ewood for 30 years and I’ve met a lot of wonderful people. Can still have a beer and a social occasion and try and get involved in the on field “entertainment “. They can’t take that away from me….can they.
First sip of a pint and I mention the banner , you should be punched was the response from friends. I sit on the coach to away games and listen to 40 people slag off the venky out chants with the same usual guff and waffle repeated on here. Try and explain anything and I’m shot down by 30 people so I sit angry and disillusioned to Norwich or wherever on some other hellish journey .
So as a staunch defender of JDT I believe I look at him as a symbol of hope and a memory of what once was. I probably have blue n white tinted glasses to his tactics and how he sets up a team as just his enthusiasm and passion reminds me of what mine once was .
Now he wants out like lambert before him. We’re heading back to league one , I’m skint with a young family and I’m sat by myself over hundred quid light on the way back from Cardiff , work in the morning, usually by myself these days, surrounded by Venky sleeved shirts with names of players at other clubs on there back after watching Liverpool and Brighton’s future stars make there mistakes with the uttering and echos up and down the coach of I don’t know what they want ,20 million them angels pump in.
Ewood is a hallow shell filled with these Shaun of the dead zombies , gangsters crooks and criminals in the boxes around them, prices increasing why my kid kicks a ball into a bin for a charge .
it’s all getting to much for people . Even I’m getting to the point of having the rest of the season off just to re evaluate my life

We have no hope. Just spoke to a fellow fan on the train who described the transfer window as very good under the circumstances and no concerns over the ownership. Said he felt more connected to the club than ever and that we would be in serious trouble if it wasn't for the owners. When asked about the decade absence I was told to be grateful for the monetary support over the years.
Every rovers fan I know bar Glenn says the same

Just wait til John fleck is fit

And anyone thinking this was accidental/a mistake needs taking to a wall and firing at until life leaves them

Chris samba indeed!! Look at what my Liverpool supporting mate told me in 2020.
Apologies for his foul language
It’s 2024 and he’s done nothing to prove he should be even in the squad

Oh baileys loving sea monster with a mangina the only thing I blame JDT for is for insisting on trying to play like Man City regardless of our squad or opposition, and for doing nothing during our worst run for years.
I love JDT for bringing us some identity, I love his charisma, I used to love him as a player in the 90s, he's the right man at the wrong time.
Thats the model imposed by those above him to get fees like we have just received to pocket

I’m guessing Niall Ennis stretched and ripped the last of the shirts so he can’t sign
Or the Adam Wharton money was used to pay his canteen bill
