Ashley out

I just found out that Keegan’s resigned and I can’t blame the guy. Following is an email I sent to Biffa of NUFC.com in relation to their post earlier today:

Disgusted.

I think you missed that one off your list of feelings in one of the opening paragraphs.

Keegan asked for one thing – the manage the club the way that managers are supposed to manage a club. To not be treated like he was in his first tenure by having transfer decisions made around. him. Ashley and co seem to have chosen to ignore that one, simple, common-sense thing.

However, it’s their statements after the fact that have disgusted me even more. Keegan has clearly stated that he’s left because he wasn’t in control of the players coming in or going out. Newcastle United are saying they offered him proposals to go forward and he “chose to refuse them” or words to that effect. So, basically, they stuck to the guns that were causing the problem in the first place. This isn’t business sense, common sense, footballing sense… it’s sheer bloody-minded stupidity, arrogance and stubbornness.

I’m not in a position to harm Ashley’s income in any way. I wish I were, but I’m not a season ticket holder and don’t even reside in the UK at present. If I was, I would be looking to cancel my season ticket for a refund and boycott away matches which I used to attend regularly. No more program purchases, pints at half time and so forth.

Obviously, I’m 100% for fans hitting the beer-downing moron in the pocket and hope against hope he decides to sell up and bugger off sooner rather than later. And he can take the pint-sized Satan with him.

Bitter? Hell, yes. Not only have they screwed us over in a footballing fashion and made us a laughing stock *once again*, they’ve done it a hell of a lot faster than Shepherd and Hall ever did.

I hate sounding like a sheep, but “Ashley Out”.

Just to keep things in the usual tone of this blog, I would like to add that Mike Ashley is a fat, useless, stubborn **** who doesn’t have a ******* clue about what Newcastle United and Kevin Keegan mean to Geordies. I would be astounded if dared show his beer-swilling face in the stands again. At least do it and survive.

Ashley – **** off. Please, just **** off. You’re not welcome in my city, or my football ground. And take Dennis Wise with you. He’s a little **** as well.
