It's getting stronger

Got meetings with 2 MP's about him as well which is good.

Pressure from all sides on him.

.. That's embarrassing .. Funny, but embarrassing ..

Big mistake this one, I think.
This will backfire on them.

It's one thing doing it on your own door step and another thinking doing it in a city that alienates itself from the north east in general.
However, we'll see.

I doubt it.

It's not protesting in London in the sense of on the streets. It's political meetings and talks with those that have already made him sweat and will go after him.

Political meetings are nothing. They don't affect Ashley.
It's not a political matter.

They do when he gets pulled in front of one of the committees again and this then brought up.

Also as Geordie74 says, you can meet your MP about any matter, which then makes its a political matter because you've brought it before a member of parliament.

Was he in front of committees due to his football ownership?

What can anyone say to an MP?
Dear MP, will you try and get rid of our owner because he won't spend the money we all think he should.

What can anyone possibly say.#
The man is doing nothing wrong in terms of law breaking, even if we do all want a bit more from him.

As it stands I could go with my grievance over Rafa being a depressing egotistical manager and demand he's gone.

MP's and protests all over the world will do nothing to make Ashley sell up if there's no buyer. And it certainly won't make him throw massive amounts of money at the club to appease fans who want a record broken.

That’s the whole idea - to make it a political matter.

But it's a football matter. Unless they want to start turning football matters into political matters on the back of this.
Can't see what it will achieve.
