47,000+ at the game today, that is 6k more than was being reported/forecast by certain media sources only 3/4 weeks ago. The capacity is just over 52,000k so as per, the media are over playing events. So 5k seats unsold, big deal, considering the main bulk of support is ST!

About 10% during August when people are on holiday can hardly constitute as a successful boycott.

Especially in Newcastle mate, most of them have to migrate in the summer to warmer climes, normally Benidorm.

i never understand the boycotts, because I would have thought that a lot of Newcastle supporters are ST Holders, so you've already paid your money.

Exactly.

Protests against owners etc should be either before or after the game imo, staying away after having paid for season tickets or in game chants etc are counter productive to the team and therefore your support ffs. If you choose simply not to buy a match single ticket fair enough though.

The only thing I'd say with that is that during the game is if you're on TV it can be the only way to bring attention to it sometimes as the media can't ignore it if they're broadcasting it.

definitely, unless Brighton do their usual job on us, then the season'll probably start some time in September, again. Wondering if we'll see a GD without a - in front of it at anytime this season.
