I can see both sides of the arguement here.
Its important to stick by your club and those calling for unconditional loyalty have a point, particularly as Newcastle generally have put out decent sides that have challenged.
This year could be a bit of an exception (although the final rider could still result in a competetive side - certainly at home)
Can also see the point of Arson and others that simply cant see the justification for paying out good money when they dont feel they will get the return/value they expect.
Newcastle is a great club that do things in the right way - I hope it works out well for you.
