JH Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Well I got the info from here: News from NUFC.COM...... Neither of the two stories we are detailing below have been confirmed but we thought we'd put them in the public domain for you anyway. We aren't saying they are 100% on the money. 1. We have heard the club is removing the NEWCASTLE UNITED signage from the roof of the East Stand and it is being replaced by the SPORTS DIRECT logo. We have been told the club has asked for prices for the work locally. 2. We have heard United will have a reduced allocation at the derby match down at the SOS on the 20/Aug/11. The cut could be anything up to 500 but our attempts at confirming the story have so far proven fruitless. We don't know why tickets for the derby have yet to go on sale when the sale of home tickets for the game has been underway for around two weeks. The reason for the potential reduction is rumoured to be about issues Sunderland have with their stewarding arrangements. Let's hope not.....on both (facts) But I can't find it on .com Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Any local contractor who agrees to do this should be shot. Be plenty of non NUFC supporting firms happy to do it I'd imagine. What a super great guy that Michael Ashley is though for putting money into the region though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ujpest doza Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Any local contractor who agrees to do this should be shot. because all local contractors are so inundated with work at the minute they can afford to turn work away. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

midds Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Not sure why so many are surprised at this. He simply doesn't give a fuck. He'll never sell the naming rights to the stadium... He'll never sack Hughton, he got us back up... He'll never paint the Gallowgate roof... He'll never sell Carroll... He must spend the Carroll money... He'll do what the fuck he likes and there's nothing we can do to stop it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
