Thomson Mouse Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Ashley has kept prices relatively low to offset many fans walking away to be fair to him. If you had ended that after 'away', it would have been far better and emphasises the difference between how the fans are treated Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teasy Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Makes me sick this, I wish we had someone like this. He's got a point about the PL as well. http://i.imgur.com/mhLPcnp.png Bayern only sell 10,000 season tickets? Obviously there attendance is like 70k per week, I'd have thought they'd sell at least 40k as season tickets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiotes Witch Doctor Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 How much should Ashley be paying us for the Sports Direct advertising on the stadium? Is there any precedent for the amount? Need to settle an argument. Or how much would a lucrative deal cost someone else to advertise at SJP? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously there attendance is like 70k per week, I'd have thought they'd sell at least 40k as season tickets. They sell round 38.000 season tickets. And only one categorie - the one behind the goal on each side in the first tear - does indeed cost around those 104 pfound.

AlanSkÃrare Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Listening to Andy Brassell do some transfer talk on Talksport (aye I know) and some moron from our lot is saying that Mike Ashley now gets it and is going to become a cult hero at Newcastle. Was shocked at this. He wrote something for ESPN the other day as well, wondering whether AP and MA are about to turn things round etc. Not many I respect more than him, expected more. He knows us well too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UV Posted July 21, 2014 Share Posted July 21, 2014 The only real positive to his presence is the kind of player we're now signing. Under the previous owner, we largely spunked money on players that had seen their best days already. At least now, we get a player with potential to grow and rise. This is bollocks like.
