Fans Force Ashley To Hand Over The Money!

Last updated : 20 March 2014 By Footy Mad - Editor

A NUFC fans forum asked the owner "what's happened to the money?" and forced the club into a reaction.

Newcastle has announced it will heavily subsidise match tickets for the trips to Stoke City (April 12) and Arsenal (April 28) following supporter feedback on how it should spend funds as part of the Premier League’s away supporters’ initiative.

The initiative was introduced by the Premier League at the start of the current season to arrest declining visiting supporter attendances, with £200,000 per top-flight club earmarked to be spent for that purpose across each of the next three seasons.

Newcastle will discount £10 from all tickets purchased by its supporters for the trip to Stoke, with the club expected to take its full allocation of almost 3,000 tickets at the Britannia Stadium.

With Magpies fans facing an arduous 560–mile round-trip to Arsenal, with a later kick-off time of 8pm, the club has also discounted tickets for its Premier League fixture at the Emirates Stadium by £10.

Tickets for juniors travelling to Arsenal will now be effectively free of charge, with only a standard £1 administration charge per ticket remaining payable.

Tickets for both matches went on sale for season ticket holders with 50+ loyalty points yesterday morning. Remaining tickets will go on sale to season ticket holders with 25+ loyalty points from 10am tomorrow and all other season ticket holders from 10am on Monday.

The members’ sale period for Stoke City will begin on Friday, March 28, should there be tickets remaining. The members’ sale period for Arsenal will be confirmed in due course.
