  1. 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.
  2. Why wasn’t Gordon in the box anyway when Barnes was crossing?
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. Ah right, seem absolutely massive when walk up to them. Maybe just more space around them.
  11. 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.
  12. Just after level 7 opened they played Simply the best after a goal. Only one game though.
  13. We have them over here for concerts etc but it’s illegal for sporting events.
  14. Seen an awful lot of people asking or having problems with transferring tickets. If it’s that prevalent the 10 game thing might be an issue for some.
  15. If you’re giving them to the same person be better just letting them log into your account and downloading the ticket to their phone. Almost no chance of being asked for ID at home I reckon.
  16. I think the queue did sort of make it a case of people who really wanted a ticket got one. I know some people just couldn’t be around at a certain time for whatever reason but other people will have made the effort to do it, like queuing up outside in the old days. It’s no effort now so very easy to just apply and see what happens even if not that arsed.
  17. Likes of Liverpool and Man Utd have so many people wanting to get to games 37 quid for a sniff of getting in won’t stop a lot of them. Those games could be a nightmare.
  18. Must be issues with having the right number of seats available doing it through a ballot and people picking seats. Could have a group of 3 or more being allocated tickets then logging on to buy and isn’t that number togther there any more. No idea where you’d be sitting at an away game.
  19. I don’t think it’s fair but, for most clubs, season tickets are a way to get money in quicker and have guaranteed income. Benefit for season ticket holder is paying less than match by match tickets for paying early. Were never supposed to be used by multiple people but was no way to stop it and they wanted to sell more so didn’t want to try. I’d be of the opinion that they’ve given me the option to buy it so I can give it to whoever I want but think it’s always been the case it should only have been used by one person.
  20. Guess the club will say you were never supposed to use a season ticket like that and they just let people do it because they wanted to sell as many as possible.
  21. You need to click on the owner and assign them to someone
  22. With a stadium right in town we don’t need any facilities other than corporate stuff. Can eat or drink anything you want within about 1000 yards of the ground. Can’t do that anywhere else, though Everton looks like it will be the best of the other grounds. Baffles me why anyone is eating or in there for longer than a quick pint before kick off.
  23. Every new stadium in the last 20 years has been talked about as having better acoustics for atmosphere. All total bullshit.
  24. Atmosphere rubbish, too big usually, seem to be different people there probably because of the prices. People moan now about people leaving before half time, coming back late etc and it’s even worse at somewhere like Spurs with people sat eating doughnuts and fish and chips while game is going on.
  25. Think i’d stop going when they move. All these new grounds are good to go once a year but wank otherwise.
