According to the Chelsea accounts on there it's pretty much a done deal and they'll look to try to redevelop Stamford Bridge instead.

Chelsea won't be moving to Earls Court. https://x.com/earlscourtdevco/status/1993941605548470583?t=IU3EdHzBVnxiVrCuZueAkQ&s=19

Waste of time. They've already said nothing can be done about it and tickets being digital now have made the process even easier for touts now there's no need to have to pass on a physical card and then get it back again or a paper ticket.
-
I don't know. As I say it's just always been a thing you can do. Obviously it's a bone of contention now as demand is through the roof when in the past it hasn't but certainly it's going to spilt opinion. It's interesting because technically the season ticket remains the property of the club at all times. You rent it off them on a seasonal basis so for that reason alone I suppose you shouldn't be allowed to transfer it to someone else. Now in the past when there were more season tickets available than there was takers it was in the clubs interest to allow it but now demand very much outstrips supply they'd probably rather it was given up so they could sell it on a match by match basis.
-
It's always been allowed, rightly or wrongly. Both parties just need to visit the ticket office with identification and complete the transfer.

My mate used to (jokingly) boast that he lived in Lower South Gosforth when he actually lived in Longbenton.
-
Aye fair enough They also put 6 past Italian Champions Napoli in MW4 though earlier this month. They aren't to be underestimated believe me.
-
My dad is 74 now and is thinking about packing his in that he's had for about 40 years cos of all the late KO times. He asked last year about passing it down to me and was told that it's allowed.
-
What do you mean, "EVEN" PSV??? They've put 4 past current English Champions Liverpool and 6 past current Italian Champions Napoli in their last 2 CL games. They're not exactly the Dog and Duck you know

Must be some culture shock for him. Been our main man for 3 years, scoring goals for fun, what was it 50 off goals in 80 odd games? And now to this. A peripheral figure. A no impact sub. Team mates barely acknowledge him on the pitch, fans didn't really acknowledge him either apart from slightly negatively. Wonder if he's full of regrets? Only he can answer that. Yes he's got a nice pay rise (he'd have got one if he'd stayed here as well), but his bank balance would already have been very healthy, and now he's got no job satisfaction. You can see in his body language that he's not happy. Last night was the first time I've seen him in the flesh since he left us. I booed like mad when he came on and called him a rat (not that he'd have heard me like ) and I turned to the bairn and said no doubt he'll score here. After 10 minutes of him being on the pitch it was clear that was never going to happen and he cut such a forlorn figure for a minute I almost felt a bit sorry for him, but immediately snapped myself out of it.

I was at Anfield last night in the away end in the very last seat before the Anfield Road stand ends next to the main stand so had a great view of how the home fans reacted to this rat and it was interesting! Think they were only 2-1 down when he came on so still very much in the game but it was noticeable that he didn't exactly get much of a welcome from the home fans and whilst he was largely anonymous he miscontrolled a ball coming out the air and it was met with audible groans and shakes of the head. It's fair to say he's not exactly flavour of the month there that's for sure.
-
He's been "out of form" for best part of a calender year now like. I think that's where the issue lies here.
-
He'll be back out the team on Saturday. He always shits himself v Everton anyway. Wouldn't even put him in the bench.
-
We have a decent back up. He was miles short of being good enough for Arsenal and despite having loads to do last season and really show how good he could be in a shit relegated team (like Pickford did for Sunderland) he didn't really catch the eye.
-
I don't think there's been a massive overreaction towards Gordon tbf. You've taken the Benfica game in isolation there but generally speaking in 2025 he has been awful and I think the stats would back that up as well.
-
Howe's blind loyalty to him and Burn could end up costing him (and us!) this season. In fact it already has.
-
Ramsdale is adequate at best, let's not kid ourselves that he's a world beater just because Pope is costing us but that's 3 game changing mistakes Pope has made in the last 5 games now and that can't continue.
-
He has an interesting posting history for a so called NUFC fan. That's all I'll say on the matter.
-
Just out of curiosity what do you think he did well today? Serious question btw. Not looking for an argument.
-
Seen a video before on either X or Facebook (can't remember which one) taken from the Platinum Club and everyone was up singing "Barnes will tear you apart again" like.
-
I was in the Corner for the 2nd half yesterday. Both goals were met by a mass of bodies rolling around in the aisles near to where I was stood. Mental celebrations.

Got the email before there. It's a step in the right direction I suppose. Ridiculous not having some sort of waiting list in place for those desperate for a ST. As things stand there'll probably only be a few hundred become available due to death/financial situations/moving away/getting fed up but it's a start. It's a good way to gauge demand as well. As many of you know we've got season tickets at PSV Eindhoven. Their season ticket waiting list stands at 20,000 (they already have 28k ST holders from a 35,000 capacity) and they've just announced plans to increase capacity to up to 55,000 to cater for the demand. It'll be interested to see how NUFC get this up and running and how they decide what order anyone goes to in the queue as I'd expect 30 or 40k to apply.
