Just a load of phlegm from him.

"¡Puta madre!" from that fella you can hear on BT.

This somehow came up on the timeline, fuck me we were shit.

Out of interest I looked at what other PL clubs charge for CL tickets. Liverpool charge exactly the same prices for CL as they do for league matches. £53-£59 for the Main Stand/pitchside stands, £37-£48 for the Anfield Road and Kop ends behind the goals. They also only charge juniors £9 for anywhere in the ground. Can't find any info on Man City but I do know some of their fans have had a huge go at the club both this season and last for what they charge for league matches. They were charging ~£70 for a seat in the upper tier in one of the main stands for a rearranged Thursday night game v Spurs in the winter on Sky. Chelsea charge £35 nigh on across the board everywhere in the ground in the group stage, but that almost doubles to £55-£70 depending on where the seat in the ground is in the round of 16. Then it goes up again for the quarters and semis, £65-£76.

Aye. IIRC (may be wrong, I was only 12 ) for the Europa League under Pardew they sold tickets just like how they do for cup matches now, so ST holders only get the 19 league matches but get first dibs on their seat before member sale. Will probably just be that.

Bizarre. The prestige of it or interest in it not there? Just having a quick look at the home gates from .com match reports from 02-03; Feyenoord: 40,540, 1500 away fans Juventus: 48,570, <300 away fans Dynamo Kyiv: 40,185, 150 away fans Inter: 50,108, number of away fans not in report Bayer Leverkusen: 40,508, 200 away fans Barcelona: 51,833, 181 away fans Wasn't just us. Even now fans of clubs from countries that don't really have away fan culture like Spain would bring at least 2k to games in England now surely?

Always did find that interesting tbf, there any real reason for that? How were tickets sold and stuff? May have been a weird system. The glamour or pull of the CL I imagine was gone way up since then and like Kanji has said, we're in a situation now where home draws in the early rounds of cups now will sell out easily.

Don't want them back up personally, more than happy seeing them rot in the lower leagues for the foreseeable. Absolutely hate derbies and from now on for us they're lose-lose. We win and its "whey yews should be beating us with all that money and hewmin rights abewses" or we lose and we'd never live it down.

I'll be devastated if we miss out on CL now, we'd have thrown it away. Been dreaming most of my conscious Newcastle supporting life of hearing the CL anthem at SJP. The ground from matchday 1 of the group stages would be insane, even more so for two legged knockouts should we get there.

Don't think so but it's stressing me out a tad and I'm livid that it is. An early goal or two for us and we win comfortably.

We should still win the game but Saturday is going to be disgusting. Low block, long balls, long throws, second balls, all with that tub of lard in the opposition dugout.

2017-18, us, Huddersfield and Brighton.

Since promotion in 2017, we've played them 16 times, won 12, lost 1, and scored 28 goals. Those games at the Dell scarred a few I'm guessing.

Brilliant from Calvert-Lewin.

Howay man, lads. The "I told you so" is not worth it either way. Get a grip.

Poorest game for us I can remember. He's still class and will continue to be, playing with an injury as well like.

I agree and get the gist but I'd find it massively disappointing now, like. Gotta be honest.

Do think we were poor today, mind. Especially after 0-2. Completely knocked the stuffing out of us. Hopefully it doesn't impact us too much ahead of next week.

Bit of extra pressure on the Leeds game but still need 6 or 7 points. We should get them, HTL.

Had chances, didn't take them. They did. Extra bit of pressure on our remaining games but nowt's changed too much: need 7 points from 4. May well only need 6.

4 points from our next 2 would leave us with back to back opportunities at SJP to get it wrapped up.
