Eddy Chibas Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 It's kinda no coincidence, that this statement (re: Douglas' tweet, and I assume a question was posed at the forum) was made, considering the stadium's 'protected' status expires in 2019. I believe the NUST's application was approved in '14 - I assume NUST will re-apply. Sure there are obstacles in place, concerning redevelopment and the criteria which must be met. Anybody must have rocks in their head if Ashley hasn't at least thoroughly explored all options, and crunched the numbers before ultimately ruling it out because it doesn't make business/commercial sense (to him).

Guest chopey Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 The land where the Arena currently stands will be up for grabs soon apparently Its gone man, its going to be student accomodation, residential and retail space. Cant wait Thank goodness, I was getting really worried about the lack of student accomodation in Newcastle city center just now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Newcastle needs new residential flats in the city as well, the options at the moment are properly shit. I guess the profit just isn't there to justfiy building them, milking students is more lucrative. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always found that weird, such a quiet city center, pretty decent traffic and transport and very affordable. Basically just needs more nice flats with river views, I'd buy one. I guess they haven't been a good long-term proposition because prices never go up and rents are quite cheap too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Might be a nice place to live as long as the riverside walk bit gets done. What they've done on the other side of the bridge is pretty nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, that’s going to be called the Stephenson quarter where there is quite a few being built, nice looking ones as well. Long term I think Science City will have some as well (old brewery site). Also they are in the process of building the city’s tallest tower which will be for residential use next to Nexus house. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistle17 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 Far too many student accommodation blocks going up- and very ugly ones too. It really is endangering the beauty of the city. Definitely needs more residential flats. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure, but assume it's to do with students being desperate for accommodation - so they will make bank even without spending extra on appearances. People buying a flat are thinking of appearances, so it matters more. Hence it's "cheaper" to just throw up some blocks for students than working on making things look pleasing to the eye to attract buyers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

An extra six million quid between them would probably help wake a few people up. Isn’t there a rule that all bonus need to be pre agreed. Edit: football league regulation but I’m sure the PL is the same or similar “full details of all payments to or benefits paid in cash or in kind on behalf of players must be included in the standard contract", while any bonus must "form part of the contract" and confirmed before the beginning of the season.
