Keegans Export Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 I'm not saying he actually knows anything but don't assume NDAs = nothing leaks out. I've mentioned before that when Craig Hope broke the news about the extension/refurb of the current training ground, NDAs were in place, so they aren't an absolute lock.

Danh1 Posted January 4 Share Posted January 4 I’ve resigned to us moving, but deary me, if our new home is anything like the Spurs stadium I’ll be mortified.

It have a different feel being in Newcastle rather than the metropolis that is London. We’ve locals willing to fill it. Spurs extra attendance from afar is very much built on players like Son playing for them. Not that it bothers me personally. Latest financial figures shows how much we need to move on. Unless you want to go backwards that is and stay parochial. Edited January 4 by LFEE Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m going to guess Heineken and Spurs may have some sort of exclusive deal for that, ruling out them doing it for Brown Ale. The only ones I think who may do it, would be Anarchy Brew, but then would they have the money for the equipment? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did think it looked very touristy whilst watching the telly and it made me wonder if we’ll end up the same by building the Sven Adult Books Magpie Megadome Kid with “Isak can I have your shirt” sign in the front row of home end behind goal, am sure woman with him celebrated when we scored So many people in pitchside seats watching match through phone screens Loads of Son fans who are probably only there to support one player rather than team he plays for Various other kids holding up “can I have your shirt” signs at every opportunity Plenty of other offences and misdemeanours, but those ones stand out Edited January 4 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their main singing stand, that huge Kop behind the goal appeared to be filled with budding photographers, lots of Asian tourists who would have been there to see Son, and someone with a cardboard sign in the front row right behind the goal begging for Isaks shirt. I know we think that the Gallowgate is shite, which is generally is, but by God if we sunk to these levels it's time to pack up and call it a day.

Another thing I found unbearable were all the LED advertisements. Tacky as fuck. I’m still yet to attend a stadium built in my life time (1990) that makes me think a move could work out.

Interpolic Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Spurs was meant to be the new ground that bucked the trend in terms of atmosphere / not feeling a completely soulless environment. What are the examples of new grounds that don't feel completely naff compared to somewhere like SJP? As far as I can see there are none, certainly not in this country. This is why I'm still firmly against moving. Moving from a proper football ground to a soulless structure and never being able to turn the clock back sounds a nightmare. I also don't want us to make a forever decision on the basis of FFP, a situation that is relatively new and may not be here for that long for all we know.
