Wednesday night saw the Magpie Group conduct their very first public meeting, with them looking to get supporters engaged and on board in an attempt to get Mike Ashley out of our beloved football club.
Protests outside Northumberland street's Sports Direct have already taken place prior to the opening day clash with Spurs and before the recent 2-1 defeat to Chelsea, however The Magpie Group have now confirmed that another protest has now been organised outside St James' Park before next Saturday's visit of Arsenal.
Further details are expected soon, but it looks set to take place over the road from the club shop before next weekend's game.

Twitter page @IFRafaGoesWeGo also confirmed that the following points were raised at the end of the meeting when addressing what happens next:
1. Focus on Sports Direct and Ashley’s other business interests. Disruptive action.
2. Maintain pressure online and social media. Positive use of facts to change narrative and disruptive action.
3. Need more people involved. Everybody needs to spread the word.
4. Need to impact on Sports Direct's AGM
5. Action at the Arsenal match. We WILL be protesting outside Sports D at SJP. We need to do this.
