Gateshead play closer to Sid James Park than the rags play to the Etihad. - Assuming Gateshead are still at that athletics stadium.To be fair, Oxford City were in the National League last season so you could argue there are two teams. Oh, Newcastle? Yes, no excuse
But it also shows why we need others to stand up and be heard.That article is quite something when you read it. Basically arguing that unlawful rules are actually justified if they hinder a team you dislike.
His entire article is about City fighting against 19 clubs.
Why are Newcastle so quiet ?
Why are other clubs who will vote with us staying silent ?
I assume they are happy to avoid the bad publicity it would attract and for that reason they are worse than the red shirts.
Cowards who will benefit if/when we win cannot be given any respect.

Sadly you can probably count on the fingers of one hand the journalists who couldn't be replaced by a half decent AI system given certain parameters to come up with a suitably slanted "news story".... The only question is whether he is stupid enough to proudly demonstrate his lack of expertise in this area, or unprofessional enough to write only what he is told to write. Tough one to answer that. Maybe the answer is both .....

Disagree, none of them wants a public slanging match, not even us. Unfortunately the PL have forced our hand and we've had to go on the front foot. The clubs are professionals, not football fans on twitter slagging each other.But it also shows why we need others to stand up and be heard.

I know you don't need me to tell you this as you know that it's not the case that we're fighting against 19 clubs. About half a dozen are in our corner and possibly more now as it starts to dawn on some of the cuckold clubs that voting in favour of updated rules that might still be unlawful could result in more legal action and more legal costs to spread around. The other clubs who will vote with us don't really need to say anything at this stage - their vote will be enough. In any case, City brought this action in the first place so we absolutely should be the ones taking the lead on it. The fact that we keep writing letters to the other 19 clubs shows that we're doing the Premier League's job for them and it must piss off the red shirt cartel cunts (and Spurs) no end that we and our lawyers know our onions, whereas they and that dickhead Masters haven't got a fucking clue!But it also shows why we need others to stand up and be heard.

Spot on. Squares with what I've just posted aboveDisagree, none of them wants a public slanging match, not even us. Unfortunately the PL have forced our hand and we've had to go on the front foot. The clubs are professionals, not football fans on twitter slagging each other.
It wouldn't be a slanging match if a club wrote to the Premier League stating that, in their opinion and after consulting their legal experts, no decisions should be taken until the full judgement is released by the tribunal. They could send that letter to the media.Disagree, none of them wants a public slanging match, not even us. Unfortunately the PL have forced our hand and we've had to go on the front foot.

That's not twitter or any other social media shite.

I agree with you. Pitching in would be the honourable thing to do but there is no honour in football so they are being prudent, watching the battles from the sidelines and will, no doubt, suddenly get all vocal if we win the war.

As have just replied to another poster. Clubs who support our view, (nothing should be done until the independent panel give the final verdict) should write to the PL stating this.
Instead, they seem happy for us to take all the bad press and make it look like we are fighting alone.
To do nothing is a cowardly shit house trick.
