If one person can give someone else their ticket then everyone should be able to.

And it’s easy to blame the trust because people know who they are and some of them seem bell ends.

Think it matters because as you say corporate, media and players can all pass tickets on to whoever they want but a normal season ticket holder can’t. She clearly goes all the time and should be able to but a lot of people in the same situation can’t go now because of the changes.

If they’re going to keep playing him in the same position i’d snap your hands off for 100million.

It was a great result but we were shite apart from the back four and keeper.

If they have the space every pitch in the Premier League and UEFA competitions is 105x68. St James, Wembley, Bernabeu, Nou Camp, Old Trafford. All exactly the same. Some used to be bigger but they haven’t been for about five years.

We got a bigger doing tonight than we did at Wembley despite the result.

Total bollocks

I know I might seem the weirdo here but i’m on the train back to Verona and i’m going again ? 90% of the pitches in the top standard of football across europe are the same size but you’ll still hear players talk about somewhere being a big pitch. No one says St James’ is a big pitch but Wembley or Old Trafford are despite being exactly the same. Players talk about angles being different, harder to judge length of long passes etc because of how close or far the stands are away from the pitch. The opposition can make it big as well, but every pitch is different despite being the same. And the San Siro is a Holy Shit ground when you walk into it even with no one it it, presume Dortmund will be the same. So why you wouldn’t go and train there or at least have a look when you have the opportunity doesn’t make sense to me. Different story for teams used to going to these type of places.

It just seems mental to me. Go round and watch how teams train but wouldn’t fancy going to one of the best games in europe at some point.

Aye definitely wouldn’t pick anything watching the best teams in europe playing against each other.

If you like football and could go to any game you want would you have been to a Champions League game?

Not a knock on his managerial abilities but a Premier League manager never bothering to go to a Champions League game and calling the San Siro “just a pitch” when there is so little european experience in the squad makes me think he’s a weirdo.

Why wasn’t Gordon in the box anyway when Barnes was crossing?

The club are a bigger brand. Just use that and you have a company already on board that could create it. The Stack in town was good. If they said we’re letting them have that car park until we’re ready to do something with it i’d understand it.

It’s not a problem, I just thought a company that can do massive projects in Saudi Arabia could arrange to get some shipping containers arranged on a car park in Newcastle themselves if they were involved.

Agree it makes sense but why was it being linked to Sela in the first place? We’ve got a bit of land and have people who did something similar in the city before. Was no reason for them to ever mention Sela being involved.

That stack are involved at all when Sela are a company that are supposed to do things exactly like this, and big enough to sponsor a Premier League club shirt, suggests to me they might not be a proper company at all.

First group was 25 points and one home cup game I think. So loyalty points hardly a factor as they based it more on going to the cup games.

I’ve never heard of anyone paying over the top for an away ticket and once you get past about 130 points it makes no difference having any more. So why would anyone continue to accumulate points beyond that? We’ve been to one cup final in 20 odd years and only needed 25 loyalty points. I doubt that’s why anyone would have done what you’re saying. I don’t know how much they charge for the buses, so they could make money like that, but could barely give away a ticket for some games in the last 15 years so can’t imagine it’s a major factor.

Never been a queue at the turnstile for leazes east corner but took 15 minutes yesterday. Everyone just seemed a bit slower rather than any issues.

Ah right, seem absolutely massive when walk up to them. Maybe just more space around them.

I think the ground is the main reason I go. Love being in there. I’d hate going to the Emirates or Tottenham’s ground every week. The US stadiums are impressive but must take up 3 or 4 times as much as space, so not getting anything like that.

Just after level 7 opened they played Simply the best after a goal. Only one game though.

We have them over here for concerts etc but it’s illegal for sporting events.
