Who was it saying it'll "never go to general sale"

 

Have any of our games ever not gone to general sale? Apart from the mackems games obviously

 

Suppose if we actually did something in the transfer market already it could have been different

Whoever it was they weren't far off being correct. 2k equates to about 4% of tickets going on general sale.

 

I'd be very surprised if the Liverpool and Man Utd games reach general sale this season, and the rest of the games you're probably looking at 5k tops being available.

Current count of season ticket seats left available on the NUFC website:

 

Gallowgate = 6

Milburn = 28

Leazes = 81

East = 114

 

Total = 229

 

Not sure where they've all disappeared to, but could first week of summer holidays have provided a jolt in sales? Or have they taken off all seats that have been sold on an individual basis to members for Spurs?

Probably the latter you have to presume.

Interesting article on Hagi here - https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/jul/21/gheorghe-hagi-viitorul-constanta-champions-league-johan-cruyff

 

Apparently Keegan tried to buy him in 96.

 

KK live on TV during the 1994 World cup said he woud love Hagi at SJP... he also said Stoichkov was a player the fans at Newcastle would love...

 

Under KK we were linked with such players above and the likes of Weah and Baggio... compare to today! Sad how far we have fallen over the years. When the PL kicked off we were neck and neck with Man Utd and Barcelona as a club in terms of wealth, ambition and being able to go after the very best players.

I obviously meant when it started to take off... given we were the poster boy team of that early era as the Entertainers etc. You obviously understand that though...

Did we ever sell £40k+ season tickets? Seems a bit expensive.

Corporate box. Even then seems a bit steep.

Mad that we weren't in the top 2 from the end of November until the last game that season!

 

Would had won the league imo if KK hadn't quit.

 

Not a chance. Dalglish did well that season points wise. For us to accumulate a further 7 we'd have had to be ridiculously good. Better than we ever were, to be honest. It took very good results at OT and Highbury to sneak 2nd.
