Kanj Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 As crazy as this Sounds, playing away from SJP for 18-24 months while a new ground is built on SJP is probably the right call from location standpoint. Or taking down one stand and doing it again. Shame we don’t have more space around the stadium, remotely - like Liverpool are doing to redevelop Anfield.

Dokko Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 I’m sure if there’s a way to redevelop the current location then they’ll find it and pay over the odds to do it. As long as they do a good job and make it top class and once again the jewel in the city then it’ll get local gov backing. Blocking light of leazes shouldn’t matter, it didn’t for the strawberry.

ponsaelius Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) The Strawberry has no protection whatsoever and could be knocked down tomorrow if the owners wanted to. It's also not residential. Leazes Terrace is Grade I listed and is resi. Edited October 9, 2021 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

huss9 Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 just build a new one in leazes park so we can continue playing in SJP whilst its getting built. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Not sure you can quite compare the pub with some of the finest classical architecture in the country but I do agree that on a cultural level it's a bit crazy that there's nothing stopping the Strawberry being flattened. Don't even think it is locally listed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 (edited) But the people who run The Strawberry aren't even the owners of the site itself - they're just tenants. There's been a pub on that site since middle of 19c. Edited October 9, 2021 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFCDoog Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Wonder how long the Sports Direct shite will still be plastered all over the stadium, wasn’t there some talk last year that as part of the deal the signage would remain? Even if they could just get it down off the East Stand for now, hate how it ruins the Newcastle United lettering. Probably be there rest of this season I guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyCisse Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 Isn’t there talk of east stand becoming the sir Bobby Robson stand, could get the classic font back with his name on the stand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope not. Much though Bobby was an extraordinarily decent man and an excellent manager, Joe Harvey's name should come first if we're talking about renaming stands.

Broadsword Posted October 10, 2021 Share Posted October 10, 2021 So much focus on the spurs game now, I think it will stay for that game and then go. One last leech of free adverts for him. He will of insisted seems as though all the cameras will be there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
