Like The Mag wrote recently, it's like fans of other clubs + pundits are telling the world what NUFC fans want - without any of them actually having a clue about what we (I include myself here) actually want. I realise that it's not possible to generalise as fans want different things depending on who you ask, but generally I get the feeling that we all want more investment in and around the club to build a more competitive squad. This is not unrealistic and hardly too much to ask. I don't see people on here talking about Top 6 for example. That debate is usually started by other people wanting us to sound deluded.
If you ask me, many other clubs and supporters are jealous of our support. Why else would they give so much air time and attention to the few idiot supporters that we (and every club) has. The fact is that due to our perennial underperformance and failure to win anything, no other team in the country can claim to have the best and most loyal supporters while Newcastle are around.
