Newcastle Town Chairmans view.

[Deereyme66]

Are people that interested in watchinh the Champions League group stages or worse still, Man Utd?

[Awaywego]

Could take your point on fa rules Cass, Newcastle maybe and it’s a big maybe insisted on charging children but £5 Newcastle couldn’t insist on that, but having seen what scunny have being doing this season I believe it’s our club and our club alone.
Pushback fans on cost could soon turn into fans looking elsewhere to spend their hard earned money altogether.
I do understand while the club are riding the crest of the wave they can and are getting away with it but doesn’t mean they should.

Keep an eye on Freeview 601 they put such games on but they are usually with 12.15 / 12.30 ish kick off times. They are a bit basic – 1 camera perhaps 2 on mic’s and the odd replay but that is not guaranteed.

In to the next round, great effort tonight lads.

Poor Crowd but asking £15 when Liverpool + Man Utd on the box was never going to work.

Question is.. Was our superfan at the match or watching his beloved Merseyside Reds?

[premier iron]

Thought Shrimpton and Nicholson were poor.Barrows played well and he got MOM but mine was Roberts

[Awaywego]

Pretty even for first twenty minutes Campbell had ond save to make in that time, then we gradually took over and within reason run them ragged for the rest of the game once Roberts scored, like the look of Rowley when he came on and roberts impressed against lower quality, 1388 wow now that is poor even i didn’t think it would be that poor, must get the pricing better.
16 from Newcastle i could only count 3 in the away end 7
of them travelled on the team bus guess it helps keep the cost down for the club aNd nice for fans as well.
Ps agreed The hooligan was poor aging atrocious passing hope he wasn’t just a 5 game wonder.

[Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg]

Crowd not really surprising, was always going to be 1500ish regardless whoever was on tv. Pricing also has to be agreed between both clubs I believe, even dropping it to a tenner everywhere would’ve added a few hundred on at most.

Job done on the pitch. First FA cup win in 6 years according to iron stats, looking forward to a cup run this year.

Job done tonight. £13 to stand, enjoyable game, credit to Newcastle they kept playing until the end.

Shrimpton is dire.

[Awaywego]

Anyone who went tonight would have seen the lack of children that’s where the issue was totally no need to charge £5 for them.

[MK Iron]

Agree with that Awaywego. The relatively few kids I did overhear at the end of the game were really excited by seeing their team score 5.

Someone mentioned FA rules about pricing not allowing kids for free. Is the FA really that stupid?

If it’s not true the club have missed a trick here.

[Awaywego]

Chester and Blyth didn’t charge for under 12s and 10s respectively MK.

[MK Iron]

So the bit about FA rules I read somewhere was bullshine.

I agree then the club got that one wrong.

[lesgeo]

I missed the cup tie replay.
Just watched the goals.
Wow. What a quintet!

[Awaywego]

I read the same rules MK but doesn’t mean they can’t be broken.
Just ask Google Chester v hebburn and Blyth v Bury tickets and it shows they were breaking said rule.
