Newcastle looking to 'understand alternative options' in stadium studypublished at 19:55 3 October
19:55 3 October
Newcastle United's chief operating officer Brad Miller says they need to "understand alternative options" as part of the stadium feasibility process.
In the latest Newcastle United Fan Advisory Board (FAB) meeting between supporters and senior club executives, Miller provided an update on the club's stadium feasibility work.
The study has entered its second phase, with more detailed analysis taking place to investigate project-related risks and opportunities before a decision stage begins in early 2025.
It was acknowledged that expanding the existing St James' Park "has several risks associated with it" and they "need to fully analyse those risks against the opportunities" to make an informed decision.
"It must provide an investable return, and not least deliver strong revenue growth to increase our PSR headroom, which, as everyone knows, means we can invest more in football," Miller added.
"Part of the process is also to understand alternative options so that we see the bigger picture and, again, find the right balance between risk and opportunity.
"This is a once-in-a-generation investment, so we don't want to look back in years to come, as a club or as a city, and regret an opportunity missed."
The stadium has been the home of the Magpies since 1892 and currently has a capacity of 52,000.
Miller explained to the FAB that they are "investing this time to make sure we are only going to spend money on the project where it will make the biggest difference - to fan experience, revenue, competitiveness, investment in football and operational efficiency".
"All this requires a robust process that leaves no stone unturned," he added.

Six-time Paralympic medallist and lifelong Magpies fan Stephen Miller joined this week's Total Sport Newcastle United podcast to reminisce about his first match at St James' Park and a full circle moment at the club a decade later.
"I was born in 1980 so my first game was Kevin Keegan's testimonial. I was only about four or five years old and that was my first proper football match. Of course at the end of the game Keegan gets picked up by a helicopter. Alan Shearer was a ball boy that day too.
"As you can imagine my next game then was a big disappointment!"
When asked about his favourite memory of his time supporting the club, Miller added: "For the first time in a long time, Newcastle finished second in the league, and Manchester United did the double the season before, so we played in the Charity Shield.
"I was in a plane flying over to America for the Paralympics, so I missed it and I was devastated. We got beaten 4-0 though so that made me feel a little better!"
Miller would go on to win gold F50 club throw gold in Atlanta, becoming Great Britain's youngest Paralympian or Olympian track and field competitor to win a gold medal.
Upon his return home he enjoyed a full circle moment with his beloved Newcastle United heroes.
"I came back from Atlanta with a gold medal and got presented on the pitch at St James' Park. I got my photograph alongside Kevin Keegan and Alan Shearer."

'Bright flashes' but 'work to do' for Osulapublished at 12:18 2 October
12:18 2 October
After Newcastle's victory over AFC Wimbledon in the Carabao on Tuesday, Eddie Howe was asked if striker Will Osula is ready to start for the Magpies.
"Time will tell and his performances will dictate that," he said. "There was some really bright flashes from him, but like any young player, he knows he has areas of his game to work on.
"Like I said before the game, we're working on those with him. It was a performance of promise. He probably could have scored a couple of goals.
"He did better in the second half when we were able to give him more of the ball in dangerous areas. The first half was frustrating for him and for us that he didn't get the ball more around their box.
"In the attacking areas, you saw his qualities - his pace and power - but he still has a lot of work to do."
Newcastle 1-0 AFC Wimbledon - the fans' verdictpublished at 10:00 2 October
Ian: Wimbledon made it difficult for Newcastle with a disciplined defensive display. Fair play to them as well for not taking the Tranmere approach and kicking anything that moved. Hopefully the revenue from tonight and the fundraising puts them in a strong position.
Andrew: Newcastle still haven't found their rhythm but still winning. Hopefully we will click soon. Wimbledon should be proud of how they kept up with us. Onwards and upwards for the rest of the season.
Mark: Wimbledon fans were very noisy up in the gods this evening. No Newcastle player playing who isn't an automatic choice for Saturday showed Eddie that they should be starting on Saturday versus Everton. Take the win, clean sheet and move into the next round.
Graham: Yes Newcastle were expected to win and did so relatively easily, but Wimbledon certainly didn't disgrace themselves and hopefully the funds they earned will help restore their pitch and move them on this season. Hope the Wimbledon fans enjoyed their night in the toon. Football as it should be.
Sue: Not too concerned! Unlike v Tranmere last season Newcastle completely dominated, especially in the first half and you could tell the gulf in class between players (no disrespect meant to Wimbledon). Wimbledon seemed to be playing for a draw and the lottery of penalties. Ideal situation, draw at Chelsea in the league and beat them in the cup!

Newcastle forward William Osula spoke to BBC Radio Newcastle after making his first start for the club in their Carabao Cup victory against AFC Wimbledon:
"It's an amazing feeling. I'm very grateful to the gaffer, the staff and my team-mates. I'm very happy to get the win. It's important that we're through to the next round and that's where our focus in now.
"You have to be patient [to get your first start] and when your time comes you have to take the opportunity. I'm continuing working hard and looking forward to what the future holds.
"I'm improving. The training is great, every day is 100% and I'm getting better."

'Job done' but Howe 'frustrated' with Newcastle attackingpublished at 23:39 1 October
23:39 1 October
Newcastle boss Eddie Howe after the 1-0 win over Wimbledon:
"It is instantly forgettable from our perspective, I don’t think that will live long in the memory.
"But I remember the season when we got to the final, the game against Tranmere, the first game, 1-0 down, that looked a really difficult game. We managed to scrape a victory that day, and it’s those wins that can sometimes create a cup run.
“You have to battle your way through. It’s not always going to be the game that you want it to be. It’s an opportunity for us. We want to stay in the competition as long as we can.
"Job done, we’re through to the next round – that’s the most important thing always in these competitions and these games, a very difficult game tonight.
"But I was frustrated with our attacking play today, especially in the first half."
Newcastle 1-0 AFC Wimbledon: jury out on Osulapublished at 22:39 1 October

Timothy Abraham BBC Sport Journalist
Newcastle had been tracking William Osula for three years before they signed him from Sheffield United this summer.
If there were any doubts which prevented a deal for him being done sooner than that then perhaps they were justified.
A £15m fee with £5m in add-ons might be chicken feed for a forward in today's market, but Newcastle fans would have expected a little more from the Denmark international on his full debut.
Up against League Two opposition in the form of AFC Wimbledon the 21-year-old failed to make any real impact on the game at St James' Park.
When chances his did come Osula's way he was too slow to make decision, struggled with his first touch or was let down by poor finishing.
"You saw his qualities, pace and power, but has a lot of work to do," Toon boss Eddie Howe acknowledged afterwards.
Based on this showing Osula still has some way to go to become a first-term regular for Newcastle.
Don't expect Howe to call upon him in the Premier League any time soon.

'The team finally clicked'published at 12:43 1 October
12:43 1 October
Charlotte Robson Fan writer
A few pieces back, I wrote about Joelinton and how much Newcastle had missed him.
After that, he immediately went off the boil and fans were wondering what happened and why his passing had become so sloppy. Reader, I cursed him.
Last week, I wrote about how Eddie Howe needs to find a way to make Newcastle click after a particularly bad performance at Fulham. Dare I curse us again and say he’s done it? I’m going to..
While fans of most clubs probably do not expect too much from a fixture with Manchester City, by 12pm on the day of the game I had convinced myself this was going to be the turning point of our season.
Maybe not the turning point, but what we did see was the team finally clicking, in particular in midfield. Fans have been talking about wanting to see a midfield three of Joelinton, Sandro Tonali and Bruno Guimaraes for a while but Howe persisted with Longstaff in the middle for a variety of reasons - not just ‘loyalty’ as some critics are quick to say.
However, seeing that three come out and work together against a Premier League powerhouse was so satisfying, offering something to be excited about.
The challenge now is keeping them all fit, as well as working out which games to layer in players like Longstaff and Joe Willock (as there will be opponents potentially more suited to these players).
As a fan who went through last season watching us fill the bench with youth players and goalkeepers because of injury issues, it still feels novel to me that we have options and can change our game like this.
'Important' club continues to show ambitionpublished at 15:22 30 September

Newcastle United manager Eddie Howe believes it's "important" that the club continues to show ambition in the transfer market in order to keep players "fulfilled and happy".
Speaking before the Magpies' Carabao Cup fixture against AFC Wimbledon on Tuesday evening, Howe said: "It's hugely important that we keep our current players fulfilled and happy. I think we can do that a number of ways and the main way for me is to keep progressing and improving and the ambition of the club remains really strong. If players see that, then they will commit their futures because they will feel we are going in the right direction as a club.
"It's important that we show that [ambition] and players need to feel that we are continually improving in a league that is always improving and never standing still.
"It's certainly something for us to think about and consider as we continue through different transfer windows."
Winger Anthony Gordon was linked with a move to Liverpool in the summer but now looks set to extend his stay at St James' Park.
"Anthony's best years are ahead of him, I think he proved again on Saturday how good he is and how good he can be," Howe added.
"I still feel there is more to come but also the versatility and his ability to play different attacking roles can only serve us well with the small squad that we have. I was delighted with him and delighted with the love he got from the supporters because that feeling and bond is so important, so a really big thank you to the supporters for that."
Howe on rotation, Gordon's role and Almironpublished at 10:41 30 September

Ben Ramsdale BBC Sport journalist
Newcastle United boss Eddie Howe has been speaking to the media before Tuesday's Carabao Cup game against League Two side AFC Wimbledon (kick-off 19:45 BST).
Here are the key lines from his news conference:
Howe confirmed Alexander Isak and Matt Targett will remain out for the match while a "late decision" will be made on both Kieran Trippier and Sandro Tonali.
On how much rotation can be expected for the game: "I think we will see it as an opportunity to get game time for those that maybe haven't had it but we'll still pick a very strong team and ultimately pick one that can get us through to the next round. Our preparation will be the same as it would be for a Premier League game. We'll take it absolutely seriously and try and produce another good performance."
When asked whether Will Osula will get the chance to start: "Possibly. We're assessing our options. We're light in the centre-forward areas. I thought Anthony [Gordon] did really well on Saturday, I was really pleased with his commitment to the role. His endeavour and pressing was incredible and I think it gave us a really good route into the game and getting our press and intensity back to the levels it has been historically. We really like Will, he's settled in really well and he's training well behind the scenes. We're developing his game in lots of different areas, so I'll have to make a decision on the team."
On hosting the game at St James' Park: "It's not every day what happened, happens. We've switched venues but we wish them well and hope they can get their ground back to a level where it can host games again soon. For us, we take the game seriously whether it's home or away."
On the lack of minutes for Miguel Almiron this season: "Miguel will be like every other player that wants to play and wants to make a difference with his qualities. He's really highly valued by all of us and it's been difficult to get the minutes he craved early season but this is a big moment for him to show his qualities. He's an outstanding player and athlete and made a huge contribution to our success in recent years and someone we would love to see play well."
On how much the squad has suffered without Isak and Wilson pushing each other: "It's been a dynamic that we have certainly missed and I think the players have missed themselves. Even last year they were dovetailing, one was fit and the other was missing out and we never got the strength of having both available. It's a dynamic we need and I think the players need. Whether that's for rotation so they are both fit and fresh or whether that's for competition."
When asked about a positional change for Gordon: "I would probably still say his best position is as a left-winger but he can and does have the ability to play different roles, a number nine being one of them, and he can play it very well. You could see a few moments on Saturday when receiving the ball with his back to goal, that's a totally different skill to receiving the ball side on as he does as a winger. You need work and time to develop those skills, which I'm sure he could if trained there on a consistent basis. He has so many great skills as a winger, his ability in wide areas is as good as there is in the Premier League so we have to be careful before changing that too much."
Newcastle 1-1 Man City - the fans' verdictpublished at 08:15 30 September
08:15 30 September
We asked for your thoughts after Saturday's Premier League game between Newcastle and Manchester City.
Here are some of your comments:
Newcastle fans
Philip: Best performance of the season so far. The team showed the hard work and tenacity which has been missing in some games. Onwards and upwards.
Richard: Most Toon fans were expecting a hiding today even if they didn’t say it out loud. I thought we’d draw and for once I was right. I expected a reaction from the Fulham game and I expected us to up our game in the face of City. City had their injury issues but then so did we - we have Isak and Botman out remember. So, a performance to build from.
Andrew: Absolute night and day from the Fulham performance. Every single player put themselves on the line and gave everything. If we keep this level up then we're only going to get better.
Fen: The best performance so far this season. Everyone played so well - a proper team performance. We were definitely missing a prominent striker today but any player on the park looked like they could have had a chance today. Anthony Gordon is looking strong and our midfield stood up to the challenge today. Massive performance, well done lads!
Man City fans
Phil: Nick Pope saved the day with an unbelievable stop as City nearly pinched it at the death. Eddie Howe’s Newcastle are always formidable opponents, particularly at home and a point may be invaluable at the end of a long season.
Neil: Walker has cost us a goal in each of the last three matches. It is time he was rested and maybe replaced with a more accomplished full-back who has the game presence to realise when someone is behind them and not to play the opposition on-side.
Martin: In a league so tight where other teams have caught up with City, dropped points will be detrimental. What is concerning is the ease that other teams have in scoring. Only two clean sheets all season. We don't have a rock solid defence or if we do, they are not concentrating enough. We can't afford to waste chances either. More clinical please.
Alan: Tough game so soon after Arsenal but held their own and again had to deal with defensive tactics and sharp tackles. Penalty was 'made' by Gordon and poor Haaland was subdued by a compact defence. Referee had a poor game allowing some fouls and then being picky for periods of time. Best player was Gvardiol, while Newcastle's was their goalkeeper.
