Newcastle fans "boycoutt" their club
As is frequently mentioned, Newcastle is a city close to GrammarBlog's heart as it is there that the founding members met. Geordie football fans are a breed unto themselves.
The protest's organiser later went on to give an interview to Sky Sports in which he lamented the fact that the recent troubles with the organisational structure of NUFC was turning the club into a laughing stock.
I'm not sure this helps matters. Priceless.
This is all the better for the sweary, Geordie commentary.
If any American readers require a transcript of the commentary, let me know.

They really are a treat, aren’t they?
I'd just like to add this quote from owner Mike Ashley's recent statement:
"The truth is that Newcastle could not sustain buying the Shevchenko's, Robinho's or the Berbatov's."
Good post.
