I think we’re over estimating things a bit here and shouldn’t get carried away, it’s one thing building a team up, it’s another thing a winning things and it’s yet another thing to be continually winning things - only then could there be a need beyond expansion, imo. That’s a very long way off.
I agree on the realism of winning trophies and consistently but we continually fill the stadium. It's important to take that into account as well as having foresight that demand will only grow. It'll be a little late to only start looking at expansion in 5 years or so That said, your point isn't unreasonable either. It makes for a good discussion
I think you are forgetting how amazing St James park is. Your talking about adding 12k seats and sacrificing the location of the Church. I hope St James park is here long after I've gone.
Same mate gutted I have been going since 86 seen some shit but nothing ground me down like the Ashley era lost my tickets 3 seasons ago when we were just awful to watch
@@maxisproducer 1989 was when I started going 7 years old I know nothing worse than the Ashley era I just couldn’t take it anymore couldn’t b happier now though just need another season ticket lol 👍
The stadium has to stay where it is, the Park at back is full of crime. Should offer to buy up some industrial lands around the city centre and Quayside and turn it in to greenbelt nature parks. Keep as much of the park at the back.
Life long toon fan and don’t want piss on anyones chips, but I think (think) there’s a rule whereby you can’t have a bigger capacity than the national stadium so that’s the upper limit. Hope we can do a deal with the council to expand, money talks so fingers crossed for the future 🤞🤍🖤👍
@@frankdux5693 dunno man I could be wrong but it kind of makes sense with how the FA is. All hail Wembley?! Either way let’s hope we can expand to where Manu are there’s definitely the demand 👍🏻🖤🤍
would need to research it, but why not have the club devolve the stadium so that the ground it is built upon and the small surround is named 's.t james' park', then basically say the stadium itself is nameless and rebrand it that way, so you would be selling the naming rights to the stadium itself but the foundation of the stadium is and will always remain 's.t james' park'.
So nice to be in such great hands finally. Love the dig at Cashley and his 10,000 half season ticket handout plight. It would be a shame to see a name change again, but if it means the success offered by the owner's that us as fans are so desperate for, then I am all for it. At the end of the day it will alway's be St. James' Park in it's present location. Exciting times ahead, onwards and upwards. HWTL
Well, for me, the Stadium should stay right where it is. Saudi Arabia has one of the biggest, if not the biggest, construction companies in the world, Saudi Binladin Group, I'm sure they will find a solution. This company, along with Fly Saudi, were behind the rise of the Williams F1 team which lead to Alan Jones becoming the World Champion. As for the pathetic "Fair Play" rule, the Saudis can do what all other clubs do, invent a Company, or Investment Group, and put as much money required into the club (same as ManC, PSG, and Barcelona).
I totally disagree with your new stadium theory. You just can’t do that with the history of our ground. Money talks. We will expand where we can in the stadium right now, but in the future, plans will be accepted for east stand development etc- mark my words. Money talks! Especially when the city council are so short of money. No new stadium will happen.
Play at gateshead for a year or 2 with added seating. Demolish st James's park and rebuild into a 70,000 seater stadium designed in a way with potential to add to it if needed. Hard in the short term but imagine a purpose built mega arena right in the city centre. I think that's the only way to continue to have a stadium in the city centre.
@@callumwinter457 People like you are part of the problem as to why it is so darn difficult to pass anything in this country, small sighted attitude, and then you will be the same moaners that complain when the stadium is built on some industrial estate miles from its current location, moving to a temporary stadium for 2 years and some money refunded is not a bad deal for a new mega stadium for EVERYONE, but then again, I know your only thinking of yourself.
We are miles from winning anything ffp made sure of that? Amanda said ten year but didnt account on ffp i feel sorry for the owners we still need players out wilson almiron need to go
Yes these owners are doing a lot to make us more money. However it’s sad Freddy shepherd isn’t going to see our transformation. He was going to do similar before Ashley took over. However our our owners look like they are doing with their own money and not loans like Freddy would have done.
There was plans in the 90s the build a brand new 100000 seat stadium in leazes park. But the environmentalist blocked it with a petition. Given the state of the park these days with little poorly lighten and youths hanging around at night maybe Newcastle could build a stadium and conserve and maintain the land around it and even develope on that land to help the community
@@thesaxon2266 I meant with council budgets being cut they are slacking on upkeep. The park is dirty, litter everywhere, trees not being felled the land needs to be privatised
Have you actually been in the park recently? I'm guessing not as its looking beautiful, Urban Green are doing a great job. Asking for our parks to be privatised; are you crazy? Theyre one of the very best things about living in Newcastle.
I struggle to buy a standard ticket for any game. They always sell out. An expansion would be very welcome. If anyone has any tips on how to get standard tickets let me know. I always seem to be too late
I think theres still potential to expand the existing stadium quite a lot, upwards as well as outwards. Would be great if they can keep the city centre site. Don't forget 'No Business on the Moor' campaign in 1998 when the club wanted to build a new stadium. I support the club but campaigned against that move and would do so again.
There is potential behind the Arena, the site there is big enough and close to central station. Warwick St. Stadium is a no go as the ground is landfill and not stable enough.
would love to see newcastle get a exstention onto the other parts of there stadium or make a new one i like the big part of the stadium but a weird set up hopefuly they can get a new one and make it a nice one a cool design from the middle east
Hopefully gallowgate does get upgraded or find more ways to get more seats in. Love going down to matches but always sold out no point getting a season ticket as live so far away.
Fixing up SJP could end costing a the price of a new stadium with all the difficulties attached to SJP and the name change and so on, that disused arena in Newcastle city centre seems a perfect venue for a state of the art spurs esq stadium. Nufc could stay at SJP until it's ready to move to aswel it seems the more logical move in the long term.
It was a great interview 😊 It does sound like he’s looking for creative solutions and improving fan experience, which is music to my ears 🙌 Expanding St. James’, looking at all sponsorship opportunities (not just the stadium’s name), and other sources of revenue. I know the major sources of revenue are sponsorship and broadcasting rights, but there might be other potential areas that can be explored
Seems very sensible...My wife Sara-Jayne the Everton USA Chairwoman 2009...She has Buggered off to Sunderland or Durham and I am furious...Not really...She was a Fucking Nightmare...She needs to give her head a Fucking-Good shake Boys and Germs...
Ive mentioned it before the toon in the next ten years will reduce the capacity of the ground to around twenty thousand and it will be all boxes all heated all waiter service and all very expensive. The owners have no need for fifty thousand fans when they can have five Billion world wide fans paying via T.V. rights. The days of the players going home on the bus with the fans are left in the history books, the future looks as bright as the mid day sun ..........................if you just happen to be a Billionaire owner/s of a first class club.

Can they build down drop the pitch by 50 feet and add more seats?
No

I believe once the arena is gone they build on the flat pack stadium temp then rebuild st james

We need a stadium sponsorship it's a must
5:59, hang on, that image is mine lol
awful look like prison arab
Good thing to do in my opinion. Just don’t change the name.
They have to change it slightly to get the sponsorship money
As long as they don't alter it much
Something like "Aramco @ st james park" or something similar?

Don't try to run before you can hop on one leg, getting rid of Ashley was the only way forward but you're still just a rich club..........
Don't extend your trophy cabinet, because you still won't win anything.
