We will be mate. We’re trying to get money back from the banks at the moment. Some have gotten theirs back. My dad and I haven’t yet unfortunately. Spent most of my day speaking to the Police and tracking the cunts down tbh

Even if I get my money back (which I do bloody want) - it’s the experience that’s been stolen. I’ve wanted to be at Wembley with my dad my whole life. We both jacked our season tickets in together and we’ve been going to every game this season together as members, we always knew it was a long shot in the ballot…but this opportunity was too good to turn down. We knew there was a risk - but why not risk it. We wanted to be there together. We’ve been played for fools, as have the others, but for it to be done by people, who are very traceable! Is sickening..

We’re biding our time. But this will be coming out on social media. One of them is semi prominent on social media…

Yes. One of them has had their account frozen already apparently. I know where the other works…I’ve already spoken with them this morning to confirm where he works. I hope the bastard loses his job and gets some form of Police investigation. The worst bit is, this has stolen the experience of Wembley with my old man

Both Newcastle fans. We’re working as a group to out them. Banned from SJP for life would be a good start.

Been scammed out of £565. As have 23 others. Working on getting this back through the bank fraud team. Worst scammers ever mind you…

Fair play…

Spent an hour or so with him last year. Wonderful bloke. RIP

Pretty sure Toon Ultras website had the words to songs IIRC. No doubt where I picked a lot of it up before going to the match on the weekend!

I’ll be starting as much ‘rogue’ stuff as I can in Trafalgar Square on Saturday night. Get it right there, and it’ll be taken into the ground. Takeover Night, I left SJP after 2 hours or so after finishing my cans and went to the Strawberry. I’d been there from just before it was announced, and I must have heard the same 6 songs on repeat for 2 hours. Can’t blame the young lads, they’ve probably never heard the songs tbf. But they need to be educated and they need to WANT to be. A lot of my education was having a ST next to the Toon Ultras and travelling on away buses as a young lad (14+).

Same

Anyone received their E tickets yet for Club Wembley…?

The only Geordie on the pitch that day I believe? At least we could have a couple this time!

You’ll be fine…I hope

Legit how most fans sing our songs tbh (still creased mind!)

Leicester battering Manure atm…

Noted As a member I try and get my seats there on the regular, and generally have been able to all season. It would be great if it was a secondary option to the Strawberry Corner. It certainly has its moments. But a large chunk in that part of the ground are definitely ticket only and not STs. So the atmosphere fluctuates hugely on a game by game basis.

Managed the game very well when we went down to 10 men. It was great to see us still trying to attack with 2 up top, it’s just a shame we couldn’t sneak a goal. However, still really confused why we didn’t start a cup tied Gordon. Also find it a wee bit worrying that Liverpool are the first side to comfortably work out a way to confuse our back 4 - and it was simply long balls and splitting the defence. Very old school and very simple, yet it worked. It’ll be very interesting to see how Eddie will look to change things up (if at all) moving forward.

Really good post. I think you’re spot on with the chanting. People really don’t know anything other than a songbook of 6 songs. So so so many from the 90s-2010s seem to have disappeared/locked out. Fair enough, we made our bed. But something needs to change. My hand is fucking killing today as I kept banging the back wall trying to generate some atmosphere in the Leazes East Corner - which is basically around 10-20 lads on the back row attempting to generate an atmosphere. Generally, it does work and we can get some change going. But you better believe it can only be ‘Eddie Howe’s Black and White Army’ as anything else leaves people bemused who clearly don’t know the words. The amount of people streaming out the ground from the 80th minute, with a cup final on the horizon was just baffling. Yet, as a member, I of course aren’t as important as other fans apparently. Get to fuck quite frankly.

So proud of the boys after 20 minutes. It is what it is.

Not under current regulations. It’s 1:1. I think Germany is 1:1.8

It’s not a guess. Already seen people moaning about it on Twitter

The Strawberry Corner, as good as it is in there, just isn’t big enough to A) accommodate those that want to sing and stand B) big enough to generate enough noise for the rest of the stadium. I’d honestly be suggesting two 5,000 person standing areas at either end of the ground.

I wonder how many would want to stand. What if it was 10,000?
