Exactly, a black market that would be wide open for abuse if people cotton on and fancied making a few quid. 
 

I don’t know what checks NUFC do when changing the names on ST’s, but I know 2 x lads in their 20’s who had ST’s passed down to them from grandparents last year.

 

And I met an owld bloke last year who had just been given an ST after his mate passed away and left it to him.

 

 

 

A lad I teach goes with his mate now. His mate got the ticket from the lad I teach’s grandad (who’s still alive). I think you’re allowed to source it from wherever.

Like properly left it to him, in his will? Can just visualise some guy marching up the box office with the bloke's executor waving around the will and grant of probate and asking them to sort it out 


The owld fella just told me he’d got his first ever season ticket last year and I asked how because none had been on sale and he said his pal had passed away recently so he’d now taken it on in his own name.
 

Fuck knaaz what the admin process is though.

Part of me is happy enough if the ST’s are making their way into the hands of youngsters as we desperately need the yoots to have an access route to ST’s.

 

But then the other part of me thinks fuck that, nepo-tickets are a disgrace. Getting an ST purely based on who you know shouldn’t be allowed no matter what your age is.
 

Everyone should get in the fucking massive queue and it has to be a level playing field otherwise it’s totally unfair.

Rather the young enthusiastic supporters than the old cantankerous bastards that have been choking the life out of SJP.

Thing is, the average age in The Cocoon Stand is 86. When they cark, and pass their ST onto their nepobaby, that lucky recipient is 65 😉

Personally, I'd have allocated all of the 250 new ST's to the 18-25's.

 

I believe the children are our future, teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside, give them a sense of pride to make it easier. Let the children's laughter remind us how we used to be.

 

Fuck the middle aged and the owld folk. We've had our time. If you don't evolve you dissolve.

Fuck that. I'm as loud and shouty as any young'un. Most of them sit scrolling through their phones and videoing shit all game anyway. I've definitely not had my time like. Big up the old cunts. Onwards and upwards. 

 

I was generalising. 

 

There's noisy 90 year olds singing the correct words to the Blaydon Races at the correct tempo. And there's 19 year olds who do nowt but sniff gear and places akka's on their phones.

 

But if we don't get more young blood into the ground and at away games in significant volume, then the club will lose a generation of supporters.

Is there a way to check which debit card they have on file for you? Nothing has happened yet and wondering if I've changed cards and not updated. 

 

DM me your sort code, account number and the CVV number on the back of your card and I'll look into it for you.

Big fan of them trying an expired card 3 times. :D 

 

Did the same with me, forgot I changed bank. :lol:

 

Going to use it as an excuse not to renew it to be honest. Didn't get to a single game last season. Think I'm happy just being an armchair fan from here on in.

I got an email this morning thanking me for renewing and saying payment would be taken later today despite me cancelling our memberships, so I briefly emptied my current account into my savings account in case they tried to take any money and sure enough I got another email this afternoon to say my payment had failed with a link to go and complete payment.
