That's just where they're currently selling season tickets. The red bits also have availability. I should know I sat in one of those red sections last season and their were plenty non season ticket seats. After the 19th we'll see how many have cancelled and I think the club will be/are shocked by the amount who have called it a day.

The thing is that long gone are the days where you needed a season ticket to get in. Usually you can just rock up on the day and get your ticket and as an added bonus it works out cheaper just to pay match by match than having a season ticket. Literally no point at all in having one unless you are desperate to see us get humiliated down at sunderland once a season.

Just had a scan of the stadium plan. Looks around 25k season ticket holders maximum for next season so just the 27k spaces to fill match by match. Good luck with that.

They can strengthen all they want but it still won't change my stance because history shows that if we're mid table or better by Christmas they'll cash in on any of the better performers. I'm giving them 2 seasons to prove that they want to take the club in another direction. Under no circumstances will I renew for next season or the one after, a sabbatical if you like. However if after 2 years I'm happy with the way the club is being run I'll buy a season ticket for the 2017/18 season provided I haven't found anything else to do with my spare time by then.

Got a letter in the post this morning from them saying their records indicate that I haven't yet renewed my season ticket but if I want to I have until 19th June to do so. Goes on to say the 2015/16 season promises so much under McClaren and admittedly last season was a waste of everyone's time, or disappointing as they put it. Mentions them wanting to finish top 8 and that they're going to give the cups a real go. Also says they're working really hard to strengthen the team and that they're confident of delivering exciting, attacking football. It's in the recycle bin now like.

The last NUFC replica shirt I bought was back in 2002 with the Northern Rock on the front in blue writing. Fancied one to take on holiday this year but refuse to buy it with Wonga splashed across the front so I've just been on and bought one of those Widnes Vikings tops and as a bonus the entire £47 that I've paid for it goes to the Bobby Robson Foundation.

Haven't watched women's football in a long time, and I saw the game yesterday expecting it to have come on a fair bit. Was right behind it/hoping for the best until the action started. It was far worse than I remembered it. Struggle to see any significant commercial investment ever getting behind it. Tried to watch some of that Norway game earlier but when that lass got caught offside cos she was stood doing the bobble in her hair I just thought I can't be arsed to watch this and turned it over.

One of those articles claims £40m on six new players. That's a massive £6.7m per player. The quality of players that money tends to buy will definitely move you from 15th to 8th Don't forget to take away money for the wages. And agents fees. If we're planning on spending £40m on half a dozen players it'll be more bargain basement rubbish. £6m only buys you a Rivière these days Graham Carr.

Applied for 3 tickets for the 2 group games in Bordeaux. Not arsed which teams are involved but preferably not England. Would only let me apply for category 1 seats so the total cost came to €880 which was bad enough but since then I've had a look about for hotels and bookings.com only have 1 hotel left for sale in Bordeaux and they're wanting £6,000 for a week. Add all this to the vastly inflated travel costs plus spends and it's going to be too expensive so I'll probably just cancel my application.

Tbh I don't think anyone will be rushing out to renew a season ticket on this news. Post above yours Got to be a wind up. Anyone who makes a decision on whether to buy a season ticket or not on the assistant manager getting sacked needs their head examined. A new star player coming in fair enough, a top manager? Yes I'd understand that but I don't know of anyone in real life who've rushed out to spunk £100s on a season ticket because the assistant manager has been sacked.

Oh no, you've been duped by them again, when will people learn?! Exactly. People going a bit ott here like. We've got rid of next seasons assistant manager. The club, it's goals and everything it stands for remains unchanged.

Literally tingling with excitement here.

Don't get the hatred for him on here yet up until recently people (only on here mind) hero worshipped Vernon Anita who in his entire NUFC career has a goal at Brugge and a good game v West Ham to his name. Only Janmaat and Perez were better than Colback last season. He certainly had a more productive first season than Cabella and De Jong but they don't get anywhere near the grief he gets (on here).

Took charge of Birmingham City for 1 match last season. They lost 8-0 at home to Bournemouth.

I don't see how we could be seen as a bigger attraction than Crystal Palace at the minute. They finished above us in the league, pay their staff more (that's why we lost Pardew to them), they're based in London which I believe is a big pull especially to Foreign players and probably have the most atmospheric stadium in the league as opposed to the morgue that is SJP. Besides Cabaye has already been here and knows how the club operates so he'd be a fool to come back for more.

London.

Never missed a single home game from Hull City at the end of the 1990/91 season to Leicester in 2004. Friendlies, Anglo Italian cups the lot. Since that Leicester game I've probably missed about a dozen home games, 4 of them this season and as thin stand I'm not expecting to go to any home games next season. Probably used to average about 8/9 aways a season as well but didn't do a single one last season.

You've missed out Wise and Kinnear.

Exactly. As long as Ashley's here all we'll ever have managing the 1st team is a "yes man" who won't really be up to the job. Vieira was never going to allow other people to tell him who his backroom staff are, which players he'll be signing and having his best players sold from underneath him. McClaren is out of work and has just finished 8th in the Championship so his stock isn't exactly high and he'll be grateful to get back into football at PL level so will just do as he's told, same as Pardew, same as Carver. In short, nothing's changed and those who believed what Ashley said in his interview should feel silly.

This. Feeling vindicated for not renewing my season ticket though. If they sign some decent players and are doing ok I'll go and watch them and if nothing changes, as I suspect it won't, then I'll not bother.

So would I as long as it's for another team.

All the best Jonas. Always welcome in Newcastle.
