GeordieDazzler Posted August 2, 2023 Share Posted August 2, 2023 11 minutes ago, Viola Stuart said: I've got tickets for myself and son (Fiorentina fans) for both days. Had issues getting hold of someone over phone in ticket office but eventually sorted. We've been put in Leazes L7 section as away fans which is fine, although I'm thinking there won't be many of us and if your not selling out, we might be isolated up in the rafters! Could any of you recommend a good pub/bar nearby where we would be welcome and get lunch? I fancy visiting the Shearer bar too - presume that'd be ok pre-kick off for us if we're in colours? Earl of Pitt Street does a belting Sunday dinner and is 5 mins walk from the ground. You’d likely need to book mind. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 I think they might be, but if they do they'll not announce until very late to maximise ticket sales. Was the same for the Bilbao/Atalanta games last year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That will be an interesting one if so as the box office refused to sell me a membership with me having a ST as apparently there was “no point having it”. Lets see if I can log on ?

Nobody Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Such a shame about Willock man. Could be a huge negative for him and us that he's missed the entire pre season Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rickyprickles Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Sure it will be posted somewhere but are the games over the weekend available to watch online? Ignore me, read back a page or so. Edited August 4, 2023 by rickyprickles Me being a lazy cunt Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 (edited) Doesn't seem to be any info on TV coverage for the weekend. I guess they'll leave it to the last minute to announce as people would be less likely to buy those £30 tickets if they knew it was free/tenner to stream.

Paullow Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 Assuming Howe does the same as last year in the b2b friendlies with the strongest back 5 one match and the strongest front 6 the other (or at least what he intends to play vs Villa) and with Schaar a doubt, but not ruled out, so an extra day won't hurt - do you reckon we might see something like the below over the next 2 days: Fiorentina Saturday: --------------------------------Dubs--------------------------------------- Manq---------------Dummett------------Lascelles---------------Targett ---------------------Bruno--------------Joelinton------------------------- ------------------------------Anderson------------------------------------ Almiron---------------------------------------------------------------Barnes ---------------------------------Isak------------------------------------------ Villarreal Sunday: --------------------------------Pope---------------------------------------- Tripps---------------Schaar---------------Botman--------------------Burn ---------------------Tonali-------------Longstaff---------------------------- -------------------------------L Miley---------------------------------------- J Murphy------------------------------------------------------------Gordon -------------------------------Wilson----------------------------------------- Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Edgar Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 The club seems pretty desperate to shift more tickets for the weekend. They've got "See Barnes and Tonali..." as the banner story on the latest news page but it is just a link to the ticket page. Feels a tad unscrupulous.
