Doherty might be a stretch, born in Hexham as it was near his dads army base but he didn’t grow up round here And he’s a QPR fan too so not even a Tyne Valley Mag

And he’s not a Geordie but Shovell out of M People lives in Tynemouth so we can claim him too

Divnt forget aboot wor Hank Marvin !

Riton is Henry Smithson, went to RGS and was a resident DJ at Shindig mid to late 90’s He won a Grammy in 2019

Their music doesn’t necessarily fit the typical N-O demographic but all of these are from Tyneside and doing really well in various parts of the industry LDevine, Riton, Ben Hemsley, Andrew Cushin, Patrick Topping, Man Power, Christoph Feels like musicians from the North East are thriving at the moment

Seems like it’ll pretty much be the same as last season but with 1000 extra ST’s going to some lucky souls on Tuesday Keeping as many game by game tickets available as possible seems like a fair solution all round to me - if you don’t get an ST then there’s still a good chance of getting to plenty of games

Sam finds the makem fewm hilarious That angry doylem who does the match review YouTube videos from his mams attic called him Sam Vender and asked if he installs vending machines They’re off their tits on Wearside man

What can you get for £70m these days man ? It’s only enough for 5.8 Trippier’s. Worrying

Top European talent courted by Milan hasn’t signed for NUFC yet, but he’s already demanding a plan for if we don’t achieve CL football and then we’d only be left with a paltry £70m transfer fee. Worrying.

The entire post was a piss take, the joke was supposed to be that I didn't know what I was talking about

I'm on HMS Whoosh and it appears to have sailed way over your head

We're strengthening the squad with premiership proven pro's who will fit with the club ethos and provide healthy competition for key positions. We're the richest club in the world. We should be signing Neymar. Worrying.

That Gazette article is just a description of NUST's preferred route of season ticket allocation. There's nothing in there about what the club are actually planning to do with regards to season ticket sales.

Do they have tellys the size of beer mats like the ones on the concourse ?

If I have to go shopping with my lass on match days because they don't sell any more season tickets then there'll be absolute hell on I'll be sat outside the changing rooms at Dorothy Perkins hammering the keypad on my phone and unleashing a torrent a furious Facebook posts criticising the new regime

My wife hates it when I do that

But, but, but, but, I thought the richest club in the world would be signing galactico mercenaries for megabucks. Instead we're signing solid, consistent, model pro's who are here because they want to be part of a positive progressive squad who are on a journey up the league. Worrying.

Probably been to INEOS in Newton Aycliffe, kipped in Newcastle, then back home to Monaco

Seen him there last night. He was sat at the back of the balcony, probably for the benefit of others. Imagine being lucky enough to get tickets in the ballot and then being unlucky enough to stand behind Big Dan Burn.

Would free membership with allocated supporter number stop the touts and bots ? In global terms there's loads of entertainment events where demand outstrips supply, you'd assume PIF can speak to some firms who manage that and lift a ticketing system from a different team or venue.

I think anything that makes it harder for people to get tickets is a bad thing. The more people who can get to go to home games, the better. Open out the experience to as many fans as possible over the course of the season. Just as long as the owners pledge to dish out lifetime bans for any day tripper Insta-twats with selfie sticks. St James Park turning into Old Trafford would be soul crushing.

Both. I'd have paid £40 for a membership if that was the only option. But I was able to get the same priority level for free and it was dead simple to just log in on my pals account, so paying £40 just seemed to be lobbing money away. IIRC they also stopped accepting new members relatively soon after the takeover.

I've been to most home games since the takeover but buy tickets before general release by using a pal's ST priority rather than a membership. Am sure there are loads of other people like me too. If they prioritise members then I'd be excluded even though I rarely miss a game. I can't see any other fair solution apart from general sale or even a ballot. It'll be carnage but at least it's a reasonably level playing field.
