TRon Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 2 hours ago, Whitley mag said: Unless they are going to reduce prices an increased stadium at 70k would be a white elephant. Struggling to shift 52k for Leeds and Bournemouth as it is. Well you gave the solution there yourself. They could make some of the less attractive seats available at lower prices. Let's face it, the majority of Newcastle fans would be lower-mid income, eventually those extra seats would pay for themselves anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilcline Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Whatever we go for (if anything) I just hope it's intimidating as fuck on the inside. The Emirates for holding 60k feels tiny when you're inside - although part of that will be the illusory effect of SJP possibly feeling bigger than it is due to having the two bigger stands, if it was 52k and level all the way around that'd feel pretty small too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 (edited) 2 hours ago, El Prontonise said: Sorry but this is ridiculously simplistic take. Leeds is a sell out, Bournemouth game is also a sell out minus the returns they have sent back. Nevermind with the shite weather, time of year and ridiculous amount of games this month which is why take up of what's becoming available will be slow. That and the club never even think to email tickets to say there is (new) availability. Its easy to forget that everyone on here is a tiny minority of fans and mindsets. I managed to sell on behalf of the club 1 Palace ticket 4 Man City tickets. 4 Bournemouth tickets and a Leeds ticket simply by ringing friends saying it looks like some tickets have been returned etc after they had already given up and wouldn’t think to keep checking etc because they have busy lives and aren’t F5ing or in the loop regarding such things. Id still stick my neck out and say we have one of the biggest FA Cup attendances this Saturday. There’s just a lot of fans given up hope there are tickets after a ballot fail. The club could definitely do better and send out an email if not all sold after day one of general sale. Edited January 6 by LFEE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I tell someone I rarely miss a game, they assume I’ve got a season ticket. When I say I haven’t got one they say how come I’m so lucky in the ballot. And I say that I’ve won 1 x ballot in my last 40 applications and it was FUCKING BRADFORD. And they’re like “how the fuck do you get tickets for every game then ?” And then they just look totally bamboozled when I explain about gaming the genny queue and F5 fingerblasting etc And I say that’s how I’ve never failed to get ticket for a home game I wanted to go to. Which is most games. I’m a bit worried that people think I’m a weirdo. Edited January 6 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should just be sending that email out daily every day or two "tickets still available" or let people subscribe to updates via text or something.

BlueStar Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 Old bloke next to me at the urinal trough in the East Stand just looked down at his cock and his glasses fell off into the flowing steaming yellow piss of 12 men. Both lenses entirely submerged. He dipped down and picked them straight up and said "Fuck's sake, won't be seeing out of them today." Bloke next to him said "Ahh, be fine man, just rinse them off" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
