Our summer may have ended with a few signings, but don’t let this fool you.
Mike Ashley has made a series of unforgivable mistakes this summer, and he can’t be allowed to get away with it.
Have we brought in a few exciting players? Yes, but a £30m net spend, a series of PR stunts and some last ditch sticky plasters in the transfer market only paper over the cracks he’s created at this club.
As a result, we must still make every effort to make a stand.
Here’s a reminder of the plans in place ahead of Sunday’s boycott, showing how you can get involved AND still watch the game in town with friends and family:
- 12.45pm – Meet at Sports Direct, Northumberland Street.
- 1pm – Begin march to St James’s Park
- 1.30pm – Protest at St James’s Park club shop
- 2pm onwards – Head to local venues showing game (see below for the venues involved in the #SupportOurToon campaign)
Now to the SupportOurToon element of the day, with several pubs and bars now on board to give boycotters brilliant deals on drink and food – all while screening the game live come 2pm tomorrow:
