RIP KK X

Wasn't the away shirt supposed to be released yesterday?

The co.uk website/shop doesn't show it.

Has anyone been up to the club shop, and if so has it actually been released?

Was it postponed as a mark of respect for the passing of Kevin Keegan?

Starting to look forward to the first game of the season, got me thinking, will Isak get boo'd? Will we sing "there's only one greedy bastard"? I've flipped between yes and no.

The yes part, he downed tools whilst we were paying his wages, especially fucked our summer transfer window and overall left on a very sour note.

The no part, will booing him make him play better? Would not booing him seem like we don't give a fuck about him and have moved on? The tiny bit of doubt that he was promised a contract and that wasn't given?

What's people's thoughts, will you get on his back if you're in sjp?

I thought it would be fun to do one of these over the next month or so.

Most upvoted comment wins the square.

This one is probably obvious, but the rest could make for some fun debates!

Something to make you cry this morning.

RIP King Kev

I started this when the news of his cancer broke, absolutely devastated by the news. If you agree that we should name a stand after him please sign and share.

Let me know your thoughts! I've tried to create a clean badge that incorporates all my favourite aspects of the current one. Let me know your thoughts! Please don't hate on my art and Photoshop skills!

So a while back at the request of members of the sub, we agreed to ban Romano from r/NUFC.

As we've switched from normal season to transfer window, there's been some confusion over exactly how we want to implement that ban, so we want your opinions.

The reasons we banned Romano were partly because of his unethical journalism (stealing content from other journalists and claiming it as his "exclusive", putting out pieces he's been paid to do without caring about the truth of it) but perhaps more importantly because of the way he has supported the rapist, Greenwood, and tried to farm engagement and monetise Jota's death. He also posted to say Atsu was alive when he wasn't, giving family and friends hope - basically he is an unpleasant individual who we do not want to give any money or engagement to.

The options ban wise are:

Total ban - no links, no screenshots, no quoting his material or making reference to it, just a total blanket him and his views/news are not welcome on this sub.

Partial ban - no links and screenshots, but people are free to discuss his content, or write a comment with what he has said.

Personally, I'm off the opinion that a total ban is better. There are other reputable journalists who we can use instead and it gives a real statement that we don't condone him and his behaviour. Just in the same way I want Greenwood as far away from our club as possible, I don't want anyone who has apologised for him near us either. If we're allowing people to quote and discuss him it still drives engagement to him and legitimises his content.

However, I know not everyone holds that opinion, and please someone feel free to make opposing argument in the comments (or build on any of the points I've made). Remember to keep disagreements civil (we're all adults and we can not agree with someone without resorting to name calling etc.) and please vote in the poll as well.
