I've give up going to Newcastle games cos I don't see why I should pay an owner, who is a proven liar and has such contempt for the fans that it's laughable. A managing director that is also a proven liar and a complete inept imbecile. A manager that was never a popular choice to begin with and was brought in to take us to the next level when those in charge never looked at his managerial CV. It's ok to say that fans want to go and support the team but those players that are earning our yearly salaries in one week aren't exactly performing for the fans. In my eyes the players are happily picking up their obscene wages without breaking a sweat and at the end of it, they can move on to another club with probably a pay rise and leave us fans wondering where the loyalty is. I will always support my team, but from the pub or my own living room. Now I get my football fix from going to Whitley games, which to me is a far better atmosphere and value for money. Away games are local and you can go to all matches in one season, home and away, it will cost less than an average season ticket at NUFC. Shirts don't cost £50, they cost £12 each and Just as good, i've just got 4 Whitley tops for the same price as an NUFC shirt. Other merchandise is available at a reasonable cost. Up to you as individuals if you agree or not but this is my choice and I am very happy with it.
