Toon fans were today divided over a proposed walk-out during tomorrow’s clash with Cardiff.

Newcastle United Supporters’ Trust board members passed a motion yesterday urging fans to boycott the remaining 21 minutes of the fixture in protest at Mike Ashley.

Fans were told to leave the stadium after 69 minutes, symbolic of 1969, the year Newcastle won their last trophy.

But fans have turned to social networking sites to voice their opinion on the proposed walk-out which was backed by The Mag and True Faith fanzines.

Writing on the Chronicle’s Facebook page, Chris Roberts said: “Clearly not going to happen, it never does. Should take a page out of Lazio’s book and boycott the whole game.”

And Karla Ellwood wrote: “So after people pay for the tickets, programs, food and drinks.

“Then they walk out? Ashley’s pockets will already have been lined. Why not boycott a full game and hit him where it really hurts? His pocket.”

Others claimed the walk-out hijacked an already planned protest in which supporters had planned to leave the stadium after 60 minutes.

Scott Hope wrote on Twitter: “The hard work had been done.”
