Brilliant banner. A perfect concise critique of the thugs that have taken over NUFC and the PL who care about cash ONLY.
I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything. |

Typical Croydon Met Police, totally inept. Satirical cartoons are part of British culture since the 17th Century Imagine the problems the Met would have if Charlie Hebdu was published in Croydon.

What's to investigate? As far as I can see it's the truth maybe it's not "Newcastle's Truth" I hope more clubs do the same thing. I don't like bringing politics into sport e.g. BLM however Newcastle and their fans started this so people are entitled to voice their opinions. I am sick of people saying this has nothing to do with their fans (Shearer at al) They campaigned for the takeover and have welcomed it with open arms so they are fair game to be criticised.

I don’t believe this would be the case with Palace. I think most Palace fans take pride in us being a small community club who are punching above our weight. Many, including myself, would turn their back on the club if this type of blood stained investment happened. Having a club to be proud of is more important than winning. Newcastle fans are in the same bracket as West Ham and Liverpool who seem to think they are entitled to success. No thanks.

Shearer is hardly just a fan. The bloke in the street just wants his football club to win. I do agree that there is massive hypocrisy among the hand ringers and virtue signallers in the media. They are very selective about their virtue.

They are very selective about their virtue. That would be me. We have had plenty of owners I didn't like but the Saudi's are at a different level. If they weren't so important to the west the USA probably would have invaded them after 9/11.

This is Newcastle Supporters site 'The Mag' their take on things without any bias whatsoever . . .(*ahem*)
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Today we live in a weak soceity where, everything has to be watered down, sugar coated and wrapped in rainbow pattern cotton wool, so as not to upset or offend people. That includes telling the truth

That includes telling the truth I'm one of those lefties that most people on here don't like the views of, but I fully support what the HF did, don't believe it is racist and also fully support freedom of speech. There's a difference between airing views (political or otherwise) and being racist. Nothing in the banner was aimed at Muslims or the Saudi people - just the government and the PIF. You can make a point without having to be offensive to an entire population!
