The Mag

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Unofficial Newcastle United Football Club BBS : One Thread

The Mag had it's end of season poll in the last issue. The replies were pedictable enough, was the club right re. SOS? no, Should Season ticket prices be lower? yes, how many seats should be available on a match by match basis? -3000 How many new players are needed - 4 Should Freddie Fletch have gone - yes.I thinks this reflects badly on the fans, we don't want the club to increase incom yet expect it to finance four new players costing around #25m.

I like fanzines and the Mag is more balanced than say TOTT of No.9 but results of polls like this just prove the club is netter run by the presesnt board than the fans.

Don't be selective with your reporting !!!

There was a question that was along the lines of "are you glad Fletcher has gone" which was answered yes, "Was Fletcher good for the club ?" and it was 50/50. We recognise he has done an good-ish job making the club big, but he has blown it recently.

The club's income is growing hugely from telly tights, that is where the increase in transfer spending should come from. The fans bring in 40,000 * 350 = #14m a year. Sky will bring in #20m a year (allegedly) from the season after next. We have paid our dues, and we make the noise, it's time for our spend was held steady.
