Then up to 10% away fans, between 5%-10% corporate (if they’re counted those seats, which I assume they are for safety purposes), leaving circa 20% for members / general sale for lower cup games. Need to keep some gateway for new fans to get to games, having 70% season ticket would be daft. Seen the issues currently of getting tickets if 35k estimate is close (which is 70%+ of stadium). Expand 5% for away fans would be nearer the mark. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We currently have an estimated 35k season ticket holders, that number should be pushed to 45k-50k in my opinion. We’ve already been over how Newcastle is a bit far out to expect there to be enough tourist demand like there is for the London and Manchester clubs. I’d also add, that season ticket holders should probably pay the same rate equal to single match tickets. Expand I dont think we are too far for tourist fans, we aren't successful enough as yet.

Limit the inevitable whinging. I mean common sense should obviously tell you that will be the case, but clearly that’s not always in use… Expand They have done, i got an email saying exactly that. I current pay 35 a month x12 and the lad next to me pays 85 quid a month over 8 or 10 months . thats in Gallowgate Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand It was first come first served when the 1000 were released in the summer following the takeover. That’s how I got mine back after giving it up when Rafa left. My mate was randomly placed about 400th in the queue and got us 4, when I was at about 16k. Pure luck. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owners can no longer subsidise clubs, so every revenue stream must be max'd out. Expand Even without PSR there is always pressure to increase matchday income every time one of the cartel clubs raise their prices. The only way to avoid this is to stop competing.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted January 23 Share Posted January 23 Newcastle season ticket holders must be among the luckiest 1% of the population. Probably about 500 people who would step in for each one that would walk away. Not that I want people priced out of course, but that discount price for PL football was never going to last.
