54_and_counting Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Aye, alienation really puts the mockers on Ashley's income, right enough. Newcastle fans think he's the devil incarnate, which would explain why their crowds number in the hundreds and you never see any Geordie wearing anything at all bearing NUFC branding.... while i have my own opinions of ashley and his links with us, the opinion of the newcastle fans is one that should be laughed at given their belief they should be a big club yet they havent won a fucking thing since the 60's 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No wonder you despise them. Nothing like you guys at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Do you shop in a local shop for local people too? No, not especially. Football clubs however, were created to represent communities and I follow the one that represents mine. The vast majority of geordies support the one that represents theirs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Football clubs however, were created to represent communities They weren't. They were formed to play football. The last poll on this on P&B showed that most posters don't do the brain dead 'follow the local team' bollocks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 (edited) They weren't. They were formed to play football. The last poll on this on P&B showed that most posters don't do the brain dead 'follow the local team' bollocks. And by sheer chance, the one you picked from outwith your area, enjoyed massive advantages and won a lot. I'll stick with my criteria thanks.They're altogether less brain dead than yours.

WhiteRoseKillie Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 When did pre season goals contributeto a players scoring record? ☺ They don't. They do, however, prove how little bait you need on your hook the the rangers threads. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such passion about a club, and purely for footballing reasons, that doesn't cheat its way to regular silverware may be incomprehensible to you and yours*, but not even Sunderland fans would deny they're kind of a big deal. * And, of course, to all the SKY-bound legions of Man U, Chelsea and Barcelona "fans". -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcastle United is a very big club indeed. It's not a terribly successful one, but they have a big stadium which they fill and they take huge numbers on the road. Saying they're not a big club is just stupidity. They're certainly a big underachiever though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted July 26, 2015 Share Posted July 26, 2015 Give it a shot then. What are my criteria? We did this a while ago on the big thread Kincardine. The only criterion you identified yourself was to do with the club reflecting reformation values and having unionist credentials. I'd imagine that winning lots of trophies probably comes in there too. If you want to advise me of other criteria you've employed though, I'm all ears. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
