nufcjb Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 1 hour ago, Kanji said: As mentioned earlier, Jon Champion did the worldwide feed comms and mentioned (said it like it was a fact, announced, etc.) that we'd be redeveloping on the same site. He obviously and likely heard a rumor and probably didn't do much else with it but wanted to mention again here. Take it for what it's worth, he also called the East stand the Leazes Stand during the Wor Flags Gordon display. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 2 hours ago, J7 said: I’d be amazed if they redeveloped SJP for £800m - £1bn when they could build a new stadium. Especially given the disruption. That's the excuse they will use, not financially sound and they will be 100% correct to use that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
et tu brute Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 51 minutes ago, WilliamPS said: If a new build is twice the price, and so at least £800m more on those costings it is going to have to deliver a lot more revenue than the rebuild to make it worthwhile financially. If they take a 30 year payback period a new build needs to bring in an extra £25m a year vs a rebuild. If a new build has an extra 10,000 seats, each seat has to delivery an extra £2,500 per year in profit. Don’t expect any cheap seats! Just one thing a new stadium would bring decent revenue in, is the top music artists coming to Newcastle. Something that SJP is restricted on with entry/exit into the stadium, for artists who have big stage sets. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Capping the stadium at ~60k seems like it would keep a lot of supporters out (including young ones), limit the club's revenue, and put pressure on ticket prices. I'm very interested to know what the study says the capacity of a new stadium should be as that difference would tell us what we'd be giving up to stay.

Hope there's some people in there who refuse to sit. Embarrassing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 (edited) I’m guessing the redevelopment design will be based on the Man City outcome. 8k if the pl win. 28k if Citeh win. The history of the stadium is not lost on the owners. And permanently skint Newcastle city council will be benefactors of a huge financial windfall when they sell the site to PIF.

MagMal Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 I would imagine the new build price would include ripping down st james and turning it into parkland if the did decide to go for the greenland option. Also if they are looking at events then a stadium in the city would have far more draw than something on the outskirts or some retail park. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Will the city counsel ever sell the land to the club? having freehold ownership of the land would certainly be in the club's best interests, would also immediately improve the value of the club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NG32 Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 I dont think we have a choice now, i think we need a 75k + stadium just to keep in touch with the so called "top six", if football keeps going the ay it is, you dont want those so called "top six" setting the criteria for access to a league or super league, finding ourselves excluded as we only have a 65k stadium and not deemed "large" enough.

HayDen Traces Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 If you're spending a billion on "revamping" the current ground. Surely makes sense to spend more and start fresh. Turn St James as is into a fan walkway that we walk across to the new stadium as a memorial. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s say a new build is £2bn, and has a minimum capacity of 70k. It is essentially the same price per seat, but you’d get a much better more modern stadium with a new build.

Whitley mag Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Some context here and an indication of the ambitious nature of the plans if Edwards figures are correct. Bernabeu redevelopment cost 1 billion which would suggest a full stadium upgrade including the Milburn and Leazes. Spurs new stadium cost 1 billion with London prices and think Everton’s new build has escalated to circa 750 million. If 2 to 3 billion is being quoted for a new stadium, I think where talking Sofi/Mercedes Benz stadium level and something which would trump anything in this country by some way.

JigsawGoesToPieces Posted October 1 Share Posted October 1 Personally think we dont need 80k imo, think 70k would be the sweet spot Id rather have a 70k sold out stadium than an 80k with loads of empty seats Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It certainly would be interesting to see some artist impressions of a st james redevelopment. I bet it would be unrecognisable (inside and out) from what we know now.
