Newcastle Banner

[Stanny]

The Gazette said there was a banner at the match about the recent takeover. Does anyone know what it said?

club (Boro) could get fined for that

On what grounds?

 

[Stanny]

Sentiment is spot on.
According to SAFC site Spurs are planning a banner for today - Interesting to see if it gets any TV coverage.

Sentiment is valid but it's beyond embarrassing.

Does the club and the people who organised it no favours at all. I cringed when I saw it.

Agreed, I was embarrassed when I saw it also. We just get accused of trying to stir up a rivalry or being small time. I personally think the best tact on something like this is to say nothing as anything else comes across as jealousy or being bitter.

Got a few messages off mags from work and they were laughing about it tbf saying how they love being the most hated club in the PL.

I disagree completely every team they play against should have some protest organised. It could have been better banner but the sentiment is correct they have sold their principles. Maybe some banners with the face of their butcherous owner or even banners saying remember jamel khashoggi would be more effective. They shouldn't have been allowed to buy the club and other fans have every right to show their displeasure.

And that's it, right there. That they are actually relishing being taken over by the Saudi regime is precisely why they should be called out on it. Well done Red Faction.

People are embarrassed by a banner saying they are against a murderous state taking control of a football club.....

 

[JackG]

It would be better to omit the swearing as this gives the media an excuse to ignore it. Otherwise, let's have more of it. I'd love to see banners at every ground and every game. The only way to drive out sportswashing is to make sure it doesn't pay.

I said the sentiment was correct (valid was the word I used) but the banner itself was an embarrassment.
