Hovagod Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Got a ticket for the Platinum on Friday, and the Milburn sports club on the Saturday. How long before kick off do they open and is it worth getting to them instead of the usual places around the ground? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyeDubbleYoo Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Wonder if they’ve refurbished the lounges in those areas? They were a disgrace. Not sure how early you can get in, maybe 2 hours before? I’ve never been in more than an hour before kick off. They’re alright but they’re just like lounge seating inside a fairly standard massive room. I wouldn’t say it’s better than having your drink outside the ground. Unless they’ve been improved a lot of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given you’ve never done it, maybe give yourself plenty of time there/90 mins maybe (go check out the view from you seat, look at the memorabilia, head back for another drink etc etc). Hope you have a great time ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howeay Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 The only thing i'm slightly annoyed at now is that they've kept the Ashley 'NEWCASTLE UNITED' on the East Stand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just cleaning it regularly would be a better option IMO, but I'll be happy to be proved wrong when it's complete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decky Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Doesn't the other side look in badly need of a touch up? I like the black but it needs to be kept up and redone when it starts to look shitty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 Never a big fan of painting over stone or bricks. Looks good in the short term until it gets dirty then it looks more noticeably crap. Sets too high a standard for a finish that becomes a maintenance burden to keep up with. Would rather they just cleaned the existing materials and kept up on that. Hopefully it's just a short term thing anyway until we get a new stand... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
