Newcastle fans are planning a walkout during Saturday's game against Cardiff in protest over the club's management.

It is set to take place in the 69th minute and comes after the worst losing run since 1986-87 that has seen them slip from European contention to a possible finish outside the top 10.

I find this bonkers.

They're 9th. For a Club like Newcastle, you would expect they would be over the moon.

They're 9th but its been a weird season..... Quite how they're 9th is astonishing to be honest. Look at how many games they have lost. No way should they be 9th.

They are absolutely awful to watch too.
 
It is a protest against more than just their poor run of form though guys.

It is a protest in how the club is run by mike ashley, as well as Pardew and the poor form. It is a protest at the way no money is pu into the club, everything that has happened and the fact that even last summer they re employed joe kinnear to be head of transfers and then proceeded to sign nobody of note!
 

It doesn't make any sense. Voting with your feet sometimes works because if you don't go then you don't pay, but they're paying to watch a game and walking out in the 69th minute. Newcastle's gate receipts will remain the same!
 
Their problem is this: Their owner is a businessman, they sell a lot of shirts because their all mad. They sell out every week because their mad. Therefore whilst the stadium is full every week the owner isn't going to change anything. My Uncle emigrated to near there a long time ago with his work and told me how the geordies go in ST James Park during the week and just sit there watching the grass grow. Nuts them barcodes!
 

Should get Ant,Dec and the rest of the Byker Grove gang involved
