the closer we get, the more i'm beginning to believe. if you'd asked me last week when the injuries were rolling in, i would have been happy for us just to make a game of it

burn's been one of our best players this season so it's on merit. i'm not sure why henderson is in the squad and gibbs white isn't

i mean in the sense that he's coming to the end of his career and will probably only win a cap or two at most.

shades of sven picking chris powell in his first squad

Also the stands are nowhere near close enough to the pitch. The one thing I was struck by in the upper tier of the away end at West Ham’s new ground was how fucking far you are from the action. It makes for a shit atmosphere. Build it steep, build it high!

I hope that isn’t what the end behind the goal is like on both sides. I’d love to see a big fuck off new gallowgate end

a remodelled SJP would never generate the same commercial revenue as a new build.

We have 80k members alone, plus, what 40k or so season ticket holders? 65k is definitely on the more conservative end of the scale, don’t you think?

on the contrary. I welcome the announcement of a new stadium over a SJP renovation. It is the more expensive option and shows that the Saudis are committed to the project. I just hope it’s easier to get to a game than it currently is. I’m not sure an extra 13k seats will go close to meeting the demand

I would like to buy a season ticket. I contacted the club recently and was told there are none available and nor is there a waiting list. I was hoping I might get one if or when a new stadium is ever built. I’m not optimistic I’ll get one given the scramble for tickets in every membership ballot. That’s why I was hoping for a bigger capacity

agreed. It seems a lot of money for just 13k extra seats. Surely we would have no bother filling 70k given the demand

The stadium plans, which were rumoured to be close, should reveal the extent of their ambition. The longer they stay silent on it, the more people online will doubt that they’re in it for the long term. Talk is cheap

The chicken man reckons the Saudis still have big plans for us https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2025/03/12/newcastle-united-project-2030-disrupt-elite-trophy-stadium/

ChatGBT?

We couldn’t have hoped for much of a better outcome. Gemmill has to start reversing his predictions in every match from now on. The anti-hex could be the missing piece in our quest for greatness

you're welcome

in a way, i'm taking the hit (again) for you to then oversee our unbeaten run to a 3rd place finish

100,000 capacity - that's punchy in an era of new build stadiums with more conservative capacities. it would be terrible for them if they remain in midtable obscurity and their new ground resembles those massive old italian stadiums with loads of empty seats

Get your sausages out. 3-2 to us. Bruno to score the winner in the last minute of added time

this homophobia won't stand. reported (again)
