Absolutely fucked if that’s the sort of thing they’re sending. How much more do you want to pay for your ticket basically.


Aye it’s bonkers. Basically reads like they want to turn the place into a corporate machine :lol:

Course they do that's how you get the revenue up for FFP. I'm part dreading that all when it's like that super modern spaceship stadium, constant social media blitz super club bantz on social media. I love the team, still feel connected to them, bit of a fear when we are man city equivalent we will be winning stuff nda it will be routine and dull

Arent't there stadia in America with jacuzzis and fish tanks in? They have some fancy stuff over there.

 

NFL games will usually be over 3 hours though. There are literally operas that are shorter than that, so not suprised some people might want a bit more comfort.


I just want a decent cold pint of something I like. Oh and Greggs of course Greggs.

I would support the building of a new stadium but for me the location would be crucial. A brand new stadium built on the existing SJP site for example, i’d be fully behind similar to what Spurs did. 

This, also on Leazes Park would be acceptable, and at the worst on the arena site.

 

Like fuck would I be happy with a stadium at Silverlink though, despite the fact that I live around the corner from it.

Baffles me that anyone who has been to a new stadium would want a new stadium.

Depends, are we getting an Ikea stadium like the SOL, Riverside, or the more upmarket version of it The Emirates?

If so then keep it on the shelf.

 

If we get something like Spurs’ new stadium, aye get the lads on site now.

That's what VAR is all about, getting the game ready for the American audience with the attention span of a goldfish.

We’ve 30-35K ST holders. 72K+ memberships as of October. 3-5K away fans. Corporate allocation only going one way (up).

 

The current stadium is sonically poor and will soon not reach UEFA/FIFA standards and limited to what events it can hold. What exactly baffles you?

Don’t know any set of fans that have gone to a new stadium and prefer it to the old one. It’s sonically poor yet nearly every player and manager says how good the atmosphere is. Couldn’t care less about it hosting anything other than Newcastle games. I think going much bigger would be too big.

They could add another 10k-15k in season ticket holders, expand away fans to 5k, and have 20k members tickets.

Does infrastructure count when it comes to FFP? 
 

Let’s be honest I think if they built a stadium they’d want it to be the best in the league. 
 

It’s the location for me it has to be where it is currently, so maybe a temp stadium like we saw in Qatar whilst they get on with it.

And there lies the problem. You ain’t thinking big enough. New stadiums killing atmospheres is a myth. Badly designed ones can but not necessarily new.

With a new stadium they could but not an expanded one. Would just be a bandaid.

 

The Saudis will want the best/state of the art. Their only compromise will be the location.

They email it to you and it says the link on the email has a unique ID.

Oh well, if it’s anything like some of the ballot emails, I’ll get mine on opening day of the new stadium.

As part of the feasibility study, Newcastle have teamed up with CAA Sports, an American-based sports agency which represents a host of high-profile athletes and businesses around the world.

A division of the company, CAA Icon, boasts the fact they have managed the development of some hugely successful venues around the world, spanning 11 professional sports leagues, totalling almost £32 billion.

 

The company claim to have experience in 'planning, activating, designing, constructing, and commissioning projects for MLS, NFL, NBA, NHL, and MLB.'

 

Recently the firm was tasked with playing a role in the design of a new 70,000-seater AC Milan stadium, set to be unveiled in 2028 or 2029. CAA Icon founder, Tim Romani, has left the company to focus solely on the Milan project.

“I’ve been chasing the dream of a new Milan stadium for six years,” said Romani. “CAA Icon will help us create a worldwide level stadium meeting Milan and RedBird’s Capital expectations.”

Stephanie Bax, leading the team of CAA Icon, added: “The most successful stadiums are those integrating perfectly into the community. We are looking forward to making it happen with Milan’s vision.”
