Make it 76k so we have the biggest stadium in the league.

Until Man Utd build their 100k seater.

Aye, but ours would seat people, rather than being an oversized dolls house with lots of plastic figures inside it.

Can't be bigger than Wembley, can it? Or is that a rule i've just made up?

Surely that rule would t hold up in court?

Hasn't he been proven to be full of shit? 

 

Pizza Rob that is, not @Dokko...

As an Newcastle fan who has only been to the ground and City Centre , surely building on a park would create ALOT of local anger? i also see it has a pond so wildlife

Easy enough to relocate the park / pond to the St James Park site 

 

The current park/ pond / area is absolutely lifting (run down)

 

New owners could make a stunning new park / new green area and maintain it

Leazes Park is a run down shithole full of smack heads and rats. It's a place women don't feel safe walking on their own at night.

Pizza Rob has had a few things right in the past, but not for ages. 

75k would be too big imo, 65k the sweet spot. The club are the ones with the data though. 
 

Said before I don’t want a new stadium but I’ve accepted it. Just hope it’s different and has bags of character.

70,000 (perhaps 75,000) would be the perfect numbers for me, and would also solidify our intent and ambition, alongside PIF.

Still never understand the “65K is the sweet spot” rhetoric. The demand is already far surpassing that for basic tickets without even expanding the corporate areas and fulfilling the waiting list for them and that’s just the football alone. 
 

Got to look further down the line when we crack PSR and can compete and secure some of the best signings for decades to come.

 

We’ve really got to be aiming to have the biggest stadium in the league or thereabouts to catch up. Building anything smaller or similar size to our competitors just keeps the status quo unless there is a rule change.
