    I've felt like ****e all day actually.

    But that was due to an armful of kunglu I received yesterday! Bloody superb that effort last night, and more than made up for feeling crap!

    Keep it up lads .

    In regards to season tickets for 21/22 anyone who deactivated their season card during lockdown will they be a time limit to get your same seat back when renewing before they go on general sale?

    So, I see the modems are being fired up on Tyneside this evening, with news that PIF are allegedly either in talks, or interested in entering talks to buy Inter Milan. Man, imagine what that money could do for the region of Milan.. ...

    Gave me goosebumps that. Almost made me forget just how rancid it got after the back to back relegations. But I kept on going, every week in the hope that one day soon, we'd be rewarded for our endeavor of watching players that weren't good enough for our club ran by people that took us on to make some fast cash. Sat there in a half empty stand remembering that just a couple of seasons before that, people couldn't get two seats together for the Everton game. This past year has taught we and me that there are more important things in life and that football is just a game. When we go back, I'll remember how we've missed it. put the past few years behind us and move on. Ha'way the f##kin Lads.

    I'm sure he'll be in the pub across the road, what's it called again? They never mentioned it.

    That's almost certain to be a yes. The club said (under Donald) that anyone who chooses not to renew won't lose their seat or their loyalty points. There's no way KLD would go back on that. I'm sure it'll be raised, but aye, we'll definitely get our seats back

    Will there be increased investment in the ladies team?

    The way the club went on over that was unreal & alienated so many proper supported in doing so...would be madness for KLD & the new set up not to welcome back as many as possible before turning attention to new ticket holders.

    Half expecting a KLD statement advising how badly the previous lot got this & were going to put it right.

    more so after his half time statement abpit what has been going on in this club....that was probably just scratching the surface at the errors

    It would be a good idea to ask if the idiotic decision to ruin the atmosphere and have the away fans above us in The Fulwell End will be reversed, whereby there would be a very good chance of recreating the atmosphere that we used to be renowned for :emoticon-0148-yes:

    A side performing with the play & tempo of tuesday night will create a atmosphere, BSA had the place bouncing over a 6 month period

    Know what your saying but i think the place can bounce without fans moving

    KLD, I'm sure, is a class act who won't directly slag off the wrecking crew who almost ruined the club ...

    ... but he's also clever enough to know how the fans feel and will subtly knife them in the back, and front <laugh>

    The best way KLD can make up for the mistakes of the past lot is to correct them and show excellent goodwill to the fans.

    No need to point out the flaws of the previous lot - they’re obvious to everyone and he’d do well to have them completely forgotten about rather than draw comparisons.

    Away end / fans relocation
    Standing sections behind the goals
    When will the new pitch be laid & other stadium plans/reconfiguration
    What are the plans for the Monorail and new city centre train station

    Totally agree the only reason I deactivated was due to Donald and Methven behaviour not for any financial reasons they handled it very badly

    It would be a shame to move the singing section though, especially when they have put the captains mural and lattice work in that area where the away fans used to be.

    It's obvious to me that the away fans should go in the South West Corner . . . . they should have just swapped places with the 'daft lads' in that section, where the atmosphere would have been maintained :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Couldn't agree more, I've pined for my old seat in North upper ever since I was turfed out.
