Newcastle Saturday - Tickets

[Leisure]

For anyone still needing seats together, there are 8 together available in Longside Lower Block 3.

[Leisure]

Those have gone now. Just 13 single seats available now.

Those have gone now. Just 13 single seats available now.

So that's at least 8 jolly, friendly, amusing Geordie lads in there then.

[NewClaret]

Think it might only be 2 that have gone.

Why on earth haven’t the club got a minimum purchase history on this game though?

Absolutely crazy in such a vital game for us. I’d rather have empty seats than geordies (who are a nice bunch, don’t get me wrong, but not what we need in a vital game).

[FCBurnley]

An Everton win or draw at Luton on Friday night will dramatically help our chances BUT a Luton win could really put a damper on things. UTC

Don't know why there's no points requirement? After the trouble at the Everton game they started using a 10, 20, 30 points requirement for forthcoming home games.

Me either Leisure.

I want every seat filled and the club to take as much money as possible, but not at the risk of having away fans in home ends both because of the clear risk to safety (and children having to witness unsavoury scenes - which are massively heightened in crucial games) but also because it kills the atmosphere. I’d rather they be empty than have an away fan in them. And so should the club.

I try and remain as positive as possible, but things like that I find really bad management.

The masses believe again or they don't like using the ticket exchange.

Hopefully there won’t be any trouble .
Hopefully there will be more stewards and the existing ones will have been trained up.

Bizarre. How does this keep happening? Is it an attempt to make it look like there’s greater demand than there is so that people buy?

I can't imagine it's this because surely demand for this game doesn't need any enhancing.

[Stalbansclaret]

Won’t it be seats that ST holders unable to attend have offered back for sale under the scheme that exists for this ?

[RickyBobby]

I’m expecting the Jimmy Mac lower hospitality area to be full of Newcastle fans. Also seems to be more away fans then home fans in there.
The club don’t care who is in the seats, all they care about is the money. The stewards rarely do out as they are underpaid, under trained and can’t speak much english. It is perplexing why the club seem to actively encourage away fans into home areas. It is driven by greed and it risks everyones safety and effects the atmosphere.

[Devils_Advocate]

Couple of Geordies I work with have got tickets in block 7 of Longside lower stand but they can't go so are looking to sell them if anyone is still looking for two seats together?

[LincsWoldsClaret]

On the one hand you have short term greed

On the other- you have fan safety and the difference home fans can make to the team and results

Obviously our owners choose greed every time

Are these still available DA?

Sorry there was 4 of them going and they've now got another two to take those tickets. I was meant to put this message up on Wednesday and forgot.

Don’t get me started on this. I’m not against away fans having a corporate option, absolutely think it’s a great way for the club to increase income in the PL, but if the want to do that, build a stand with corporate facilities for them or - do not allow blatant mixing of fans.

And be explicit to everyone that away fans in home stands must behave or get thrown out. They never do.

Annoys me, particularly in these games that are massive to us to have potential crowd problems.

[NewClaret]

See Stalbansclaret's response above.

Yeah it just seems so random that they come available in batches. Just can’t imagine 17 people suddenly decided they couldn’t attend a match three days prior. If they came available in ones and twos I’d find it more understandable.

Of course they have 4 seats together!

[Leisure]

34 seats together now available in Longside Lower Block 1.

[watsonsclarets]

I have got two we (me and the lad are not Geordies) we just can’t afford to travel and watch every week!!

[Leisure]

Now 60 available in Block 1.

That is my problem...train fares this weekend from Sussex £129 return. So my two seats will be empty. Was hoping to drive but the wife has other ideas.

Train fares are absolutely outrageous. I’m surprised there’s anyone on them to be honest.

Great to hear. Hope you enjoy the game.

Classic DA

[Leisure]

Practically all of the 100 or so seats in the Longside Lower which became available around lunchtime have now gone. Hope they haven't gone to away fans!!

Unfortunately I would think it's a fair bet that many if not most of them will have been snapped up by away fans. I can well see a repeat of the Everton match unfortunately. We'll see.
