I haven't had an email mind... I usually get an email about ballots so assumed only season ticket holders were asked.
Yeah I got the survey and filled it in last night late doors. In the closing comments I told them I if I was paying £9k a season for a loge box, I wanted free ale, scantily clad table service and a blowjob minimum. Grey hoodie optional. Yeah, there was a lot about Sushi, champers and fancy hospitality, plus questions on what you feel that certain services would be worth as a premium in either an upgraded SJP or a new venue, but it was a bloody survey... They have to go for the wide demographic, or they're not getting the full polarity of opinions. The way it's been received bu NUFC Twitter is embarrassing. You forget just how ****ing thick some folk are. Slagging off the owners and commercial team saying they're ruining it for the working class folk... whoppers.
I'm off down to Spurs stadium to watch the game Sunday, so I'll report back on the experience. My opinion, for what it's worth - I really, really don't want to move from the current site, so if we can build something ala Spurs, or ala Real Madrid on Leazes park, and then recreated modern green area, keeping the historical art / structures on our current site, then I'd be all over it. Not sure how much support that would get, but I reckon the commercial team could sell it. A new stadium, city centre location would be massive for the club and the city. Wouldn't fancy moving even as far as the riverside.
They should just ask “would you be happy playing at the Stadium of ****e so we can redevelop SJP?” If that doesn’t sort it nothing will.
Not a problem with a new ground though. It was certainly more questions regarding new stadium than expansion though.
I Went to watch rugby there a year or so back and I have to say that the Spurs stadium is fantastic, best modern stadium in the prem. No history to it though but if we were going to replace SJP (which I don't want) using the Spurs stadium as a blueprint would be a good starting point
And that’s the mind boggling thing. Some people are so set against moving they’d pass up the opportunity to have the best ground ever built. I say build it, but I’d really want to stay in close proximity to where we are now.
This. I mean, err, none of would want Trev to snuff it, of course, but it's always best to have a plan.
