NUFC Owners Plan To Remain at St James’ Park: WORLD CLASS Stadium Transformation Explained
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 чер 2024
- This video is the final video in a series, whereby I’ve taken a closer look at a possible expansion, rebuild, or relocation of St James’ Part.
It outlines 6 compelling reasons as to why the NUFC owners will have no choice but to completely rebuild St James' Park in its current location.
To fully understand these reasons, I would encourage you to watch the other 6 videos, which go into greater detail to some of the points discussed in this video.
Point 1. Fan Led Review of Football Governance

Eddie, I love your videos and always look for new content. Loved this series you talk complete sense unlike all the younguns trying to be like you n them yankee clickbait vids grrrr! Here's looking at a rebuilt hopefully in my/our lifetimes! As a side note and as a fella geordie (sandancer) The way you put yourself across as a geordie is brilliant! well spoken, intelligent, vocally and gramatically impeccable! It's awesome to see n hear a true geordie doing so well, keep it up mate
That’s very kind of you sir thank you 🙏 🫡
Not all the 'younguns' are bad. Awaydays, StuntPegg, Smiv and HITCSevens all have good content (albeit not NUFC focused)
Couldn't have said it better myself .... well done Eddie. Top factual content as always.
I'm not a Newcastle supporter, I'm a Chelsea supporter, but I am old enough to remember Bob Moncur and Wyn Davies playing for them. I have always had an interest in the great historic clubs, Newcastle, Wolves, Sheff Weds, etc. So I regularly watch the uploads.
I just wanted to say how interesting and informative they are. I have never visited Newcastle, and since retirement a few years ago ill health has so far ruined my plan to do so.
Sadly I doubt I will be around to see the new Stadium, but certainly Newcastle deserves a World class one.
I find your uploads really interesting and enjoyable. They are a helpful distraction for me.
Obviously they are aimed at Toon fans, but I just wanted to say thank you as a lover of football in general.
I think it would be nice to spend a few days in Newcastle and its on the to do list.
In any event I hope you get the Stadium you all deserve.
That’s a very kind message Ade and appreciated thank you 🙏 ☝️👊🏻👍🏻
Lovely words, God Bless you mate.
Great post that fella
U forgot to mention Blackpool in your list of historic clubs but I’ll forgive you 😂
Nicely said Ade. ❤
Thanks Eddie for the factual updates, always appreciated and keeping us upto date 👍👍
Cheers Mal 👊🏻👍🏻
EFC blue here.
I get you so much.
I really hope you guys get what you want.
We have waited years to get our new stadium.
It is nearly complete.
Yous will win at Bramley Moore one day. Up the Toon! coyb!
☝️👊🏻👍🏻
As an Arsenal fan I would love to see a new stadium for Newcastle United. Their fans are some of the best and will bring a brilliant atmosphere to their new home.
Good to see you back Eddy.
Great video again Eddie always make lot sense & love how you do research before making the videos
Thank you Sandy 🙏
An incredible series of videos that are newsworthy and of a very high standard. Lucky we have you Eddy and some famous journalists are not comparable when work compared. Totally concur with your summary, as well.
Thank you Mark 🙏👊🏻
Great video Eddy, loved the series. Really looking forward to see what you cover next away from Nufc .
Cheers Tim 👊🏻👍🏻
Eddy, I’ve seen so much stadium clickbait on this platform the last couple of weeks. And it’s been doing my head in. Thank you so much for this well constructed piece of content. Puts all the rumours to bed. Excellent delivery and can see how much research has gone into this. Well in. 🤝⚫️⚪️
Thank you mate 🙏👊🏻
I'm With you on 6, that's my views too. Great content buddy
Another good one Eddy, thanks for your insights and hard work
Not blowing smoke up your ar*e here Eddie but although I also enjoy many other channels on UA-cam, yours is my No 1 that I go to for your factual honest views. Fully researched and no bulls**t. Love your content and wish you, Helen and the lovely doggos well my friend. 🙏 👍
Thank you John 🙏👊🏻👍🏻
Great research as always
I wouldn’t go anywhere else for information on the ground so thanks for the work you do. Very much appreciated
🙏👊🏻
Great informative series Eddie. Cheers for putting all the time and leg work in with the research to give us a better idea of what the actual crack is. So much of the stuff that comes out elsewhere seems to be heresay that is repeated so many times that it becomes valid somehow. It's nice to hear some proper well researched info.
Thank you Jonny ☝️🙏👊🏻
I found this video through a comment on a The Mag article. Absolutely first class, the best discussion I've seen yet on this subject.
Thank you David 🙏👊🏻
Great bit of information, Benton lad joined the Royal Marines aged 16 in 1977 , lived in Plymouth ever since and obviously follow the Toon. Thank you for the great videos and information best regards George Richardson
Cheers Kev 👊🏻👍🏻
Excellent series Eddie. Well researched and very plausible and likely outcome
Thank you Lee 🙏👊🏻
As usual great video. Food for thought
A lot of time and effort put into this Eddie. Excellent work and hats off to you.
Thank you Peter 🙏👊🏻
eddie, again great content,all i will say is, watch this space, and get ready to go [ forward that is ] cheers
Good to see you mate enjoy your videos
You too Malcolm 👊🏻👍🏻
As always Eddie an excellent video and many thanks as always for taking the time to actually look into this issue as opposed to simply jumping on the bandwagon of the popular rumours doing the rounds on social media. I follow several Toon vloggers for various reasons, but when I need a balanced and honest view you're the man to come to. Another point I always think is integral as to why we have to stay close to where we are is the sheer amount of money that is spent in the city centre on match days. If Newcastle were forced out to the city outskirts or even beyond the backlash from merchants would be too much for the council.
Thank you Keith 🙏👊🏻
You should note however that in order to move away from the city centre, they’d need majority fan approval anyway. That ain’t going to happen I’m certain
Class Eddie just watched your Byker wall video as well on the way to work really interesting learning about the city through your videos
Keep up the good work mate
Big fan
Cheers Matt 👊🏻👍🏻
Another well thought out and considered report. You’re absolutely correct on the current state of SJP regarding the concourses and facilities, in the case of the East stand they hark back to the 70’s. The stadium is lopsided and showing its age, I would love something like the Mercedes Benz stadium, how we achieve that is another matter.
☝️👊🏻👍🏻
Great stuff, Eddie. Really informative and insightful, as always.
👊🏻👍🏻
Thanks Eddie very comprehensive as always!
Cheers Mike 👊🏻👍🏻
Top video as always Eddie
👊🏻👍🏻
Great video. Thank you.
Top video Eddie. Let's see what happens next.
Thanks for this, well set out and you're probably right. Nothing will be done for 4 years, and then it'll take 4 years to build the thing and start playing there, so I'm not going to worry too much about it now!
Exactly ☝️👍🏻
Best one of all the Relocation/Rebuild series Eddie 🎉
Thank you sir 🫡
Great video series mate. Think you're definitely on the mark with your idea. Shame to see the old Cathedral go but we must now look to the future. Onwards and upwards to brighter times
Cheers bud 👊🏻👍🏻
I would add that our ‘old cathedral’ is only just over two decades old
@@TynesideLife only use the "old cathedral" as a term of endearment lol. It's all the grandson has known and he's not happy about us moving/changing it lol. I'll never forget his words when we finally managed to get tickets, he looked at me as we took our seats and said "grandad, it's good to be back"
Whether your ideas turn out to be right or wrong many thanks for presenting them. It’s been an interesting series and I appreciate the work you’ve done to present these videos..

I’m a Leicester fan always love going to Newcastle away. All the pubs near the ground I do actually love the design of the ground and the old school modern design of it. Really enjoy watching this video mate 👍. Newcastle is a great city would love to live in Newcastle one day
👊🏻👍🏻
you must be pissed to wanna live in newcastle 😂
Superb research, thank you , I hope it gets built.
Cheers Norm 🙏👊🏻
Well Eddy, this is a really good video, and after watching believe that you are spot on. Good to get a well thought out video, with so much detail. This has been a fascinating series of videos. I guess for whatever reason in my head I had been hoping for a new stadium, nearby. But the points you make and reasons make me see that a rebuild is the best option. I had imagined an 80000 new stadium was the best option. But I guess it's making best use of what's there, optimising things and having first class facilities that will serve the cub best.
Thank you Gary. Not that I’m an expert but there are too many people out there throwing around ill thought out supposition, which then become curiously valid over time.
Way to go lad, wow going to take years but when it's done I'm sure it's going to be a belter 😮
Cheers Kevin 👍🏻👊🏻
As Everton fan I came across your video .. Which I found to be informative and well thought out .. I only wished our new stadium had a least 55,000 capacity instead of 52, 888 ( pass why it has been set at this capacity) .. But it can increase to 62,000 with standing if the Government approve standing again in English football .. Anyway thanks for video and I'm sure you Newcastle fans can't wait to see what the plans are for St James' Park ..
Great message and thanks for sharing John 👊🏻👍🏻
Hi John Yes 53,000 is clearly too small for EFC. And I'd love to see old school standing back in the top divisions - Rugby League, Rugny Union and GAA and lower leagues have no problems with standing, and while Safe Standing is ok it doesn't increase capacity. Highly controlled, capacity wise, and with an increase in barriers etc, standing is as safe as seating without barriers. But why do you think it's even possible? Is it being discussed as far as you know?
From a fan of another club, that was a very interesting video. I always thought that you’d bring up the four stands to the same height (which would look amazing having been to St James’ in the away end myself), but never realised that those buildings needing to be knocked down were listed. Good work sir 👍
That’s appreciated thank you 🫡
Eddy,
Once again you have produced a professional and comprehensive series of videos. You research and analyse all aspects and deliver your unbiased, balanced views with aplomb. Keep up the great work and, I am sure, we are all eager to see the next series.
Roger NZ
Thank you again Roger 🙏👍🏻
Great video Eddie! I've followed NUFC for nearly 60 years, from standing in the Popular Side with my Dad up to the present day. For me, SJP is NUFC and long may be so!
👊🏻👍🏻
Another class video Eddy difficult decisions ahead mate
Excellent coverage and informed information. Thank you and well done fella. 👍
Cheers Brian 🙏👊🏻
I really do hope your right they knock it down and then rebuild,it would be fantastic
That would take too long. We need to build in parallel and would only be able to build like for capacity. We need an 80k stadium at least.
@@craig3613 you clearly did not watch the video
@@craig3613 I can see a scenario where the have reduced attendances for a year so that they can rebuild a stand at a time and expand in situ.
That's a very interesting theory, it's starting to look like we are going to stay where we are, despite most fans that I've seen anecdotally on social media seeming to come around to the idea of a new one. Given all of the facts you've presented, this would seem to be a strong option. We already have the land. The question is how do you build it. I'd guess it would be done in stages, much like in fact the original redevelopment from 1992-2001. Good video Eddie, enjoyed it!
Thanks Eddy. I always enjoy hearing your educated perspective.
Thank you Alan but who said I was educated 😅
Love your content Eddie, helps the hours go by at sea also :)
Just don’t get sick 🤢 😅
That's beautiful. I didn't know there was a lovely green park next to St James. I've not been to Newcastle but you don't want to ruin that. Hope you expand St James. Newcastle finally a top club again.
Nice one Eddie, another informative insight, well done mate
Appreciated Alan 🙏👊🏻
Thank you Eddie.
Cheers Justin 👊🏻👍🏻
@@TynesideLife you have a real skill in layering the I formation to make the listener / watcher comprehend what's going on until you get to the final and usually logical conclusion. Respect lovely man...
I appreciate that Justin. It takes me a long time to build the video 🙏👊🏻
Thanks Eddie for this video series and your research.👍
Cheers Steve 👍🏻👊🏻
thanks for all the information, good show
👍🏻👊🏻
Brilliant explanation Eddy. Well done.
Cheers David 👊🏻👍🏻
Good stuff Eddie you've turned into a bit of an inspiration to me mate through this channel and your other one always an enjoyable intresting watch and educational 👍
Thank you Daniel 🙏👊🏻
I do have to correct you about the Grade 1 Listed building. After the Winsor Castle Fire multiple Grade 1 building of the same period were deconstructed to provide building materials for the reconstruction. More than half a dozen period correct coach houses across the North West and Cumbria were taken apart brick and slate by brick and slate and went to the Winsor project.
However, this is a pedantic point as it has no baring on our need to expand SJP. Just wanted to be accurate.
Great work all the same Eddie, keep up the great work. I whole heartedly agree with your conclusions.
Best wishes for your future success mate
Hi mate, I love learning new things but its my under that Grade 1 buildings weren’t moved or dismantled completely to assist with this. They were Grade II but I’m happy yo be corrected if you can provide some details?
Really glad you appreciated the video and I love hearing from well read fans 🙏👊🏻
Only thing I have seen or heard that makes any sense! 👍
Cheers Bill 🙏👊🏻
Great vid as always👍🏻
Great video Eddie. Nice to see you yesterday.
Cheers Neil, you too 👊🏻👍🏻
Love all your vids eddy
Cheers Anthony 👊🏻👍🏻
I love watching your videos Eddie keep up the good work 👍
Cheers Adam 🙏👊🏻
Great video Eddy!
Thanks Graham 👊🏻👍🏻
Think you’re absolutely spot on, great factual video too 👍🏻
🙏👊🏻
Very Interesting and a good summary. It's where do we play while a new stadium is built.
We don’t necessarily need to play somewhere else Shaun… it could be done in stages
Great research. Saved the best video to last on this saga. You've got me joining you on that hill
🙏☝️👊🏻👍🏻
Great work Eddie, I totally agree a rebuild is without doubt the best option, but won’t be without some pain while being built. But a rebuild might not take so long bearing in mind the foundations are already in place
I agree ☝️
Thank you Eddie!!
Love your posts mate 👍💪🌟
👊🏻👍🏻
Fantastic assessment- so well researched as always and totally agree with planting the 🗡️ 👍
I’m absolutely sure that that will be the eventual decision and is indisputably the best solution without doubt. Yes, its not going to happen anytime soon but it will be worth waiting for and secure a great future and new heritage/ legacy for the club, fans and city.
Thank you Eddie!👏
Cheers bud 🙏👊🏻
Another great watch now I believe we are staying for a while.CHEERS EDDIE
Forever Christopher 👊🏻👍🏻
The optimise v maximize capacity part of the video was very well explained by you Eddie 👍I do think whatever happens in the future regarding the stadium they are interesting times ahead for the Newcastle supporters.
Thank you 👊🏻👍🏻
Class and very informative thank you
Cheers Keith 👊🏻👍🏻
I applaud you Eddie for such a considered assessment. The time you've taken to present rational arguments is there for us all to see. Now,...on your proposition, I love your idea of a new stadium being modeled on a Yorkshire pudding,...being a fan of that delicacy it would appeal to me. Nevertheless, I believe simplicity of solution/outcome will most likely be the priority for NUFC;...probably around the 70-75k capacity mark; because that will be the most economical. I also wonder if the news that the Halls of Residence on Castle Leazes are being re-built presents an opportunity for a collaboration. So,...based on your wonderful information, I'd paint this picture, a new stadium on Castle Leazes, St James sustained until the new build is complete, then replaced with parkland in front of Leazes terrace. I think this approach brings sooooooooooooo many benefits for all agencies. I also believe Leazes park will be refurbished as part of the new stadium build.
We are United

Hi Penny, thank you for the kind words again 🙏👊🏻
Unfortunately there are a few flaws you’ve missed with your suggestion on this one, but I won’t labour it in here 😅
Thanks Eddie for great and informative video.
👊🏻👍🏻
Great info. Thanks, Eddy.
Cheers Marcus 🙏👊🏻
Hey Eddie, long term viewer here when focusing on NUFC & specifically stadium related topics. It pains me to say this, but I think you are right, all the other options just arent realistic. If they do rebuild SJP, it would be fantastic to keep it in the city centre location, i'd be really curious to see what that would look like. Other examples (Spurs, Real Madrid) prove it can be done, but I don't think they had the space challenges that SJP does.
Thank you for your time, research & dedication to this!
Cheers Alex 🙏👊🏻
Very interesting and well-researched video. I'm totally with you on the Leazes Terrace, to even think about moving that beautiful structure is madness. Apparently the interiors are just as impressive. A football stadium is just steel and concrete, knock it down and shift it a thirty yards.
Cheers bud 👊🏻👍🏻
Actually the interior is quite ordinary. I was shown inside around 18 months ago 😅 it’s the Facade that gives it its Grade 1 listing.
Needless to say, that building is going nowhere.
Top fella. I really hope St James Park is rebuilt. One of my best memories going there as a young buck!
It will I’m sure 👌
@@TynesideLife I just think Newcastle hopefully look at Spurs and how a rebuild at the same location can really work. Im a Spurs supporter, I think for £££ may be Newcastle can look at a roof cover for events outside football?
@@ahermens I agree ☝️
Cheers Eddie outstanding information as usual
👊🏻👍🏻
Great video Eddie 👌🏻
Excellent Eddy.. Another great presentation. I hope I'm still around to see the phoenix SJP arising..
🙏👍🏻
Brilliant video, agree completely. Finally someone talking sense!
🙏👊🏻
Good video. Last week I heard someone put forth a possible way a rebuild might take place.
When they break ground on the new training ground, they want to put up a stadium to hold about 30,000 for the women and academy teams to play.
The plan would be to tear down SJP and rebuild basically on the existing footprint. The team would play at the training ground stadium on a temporary basis until the new SJP is up and running.
What a great and considered video. I’m a proper stadium geek especially after my beloved Spurs did the necessary and currently watching and hoping my local at Luton break ground at Power Court.
It is about that sweet spot with capacity and bringing in revenue. I’ve never been to SJP but there is a vibe on the 21st century fan experience vs what I first visited at the old WHL and the stench of the urinals in the bastardised Shelf.
Taking my sons to their first match at the Lane next week so I’ll be intrigued to gauge their experience especially as they’ve visited The Kenny a couple of times (and that’s as old school as you can get)
Thanks for sharing bud 🙏👊🏻👍🏻
Another issue is moving it "downwards" aka westwards and even northwards into Leazes, if the road can be altered in conjunction with the council we can expand both Eastern and Gallowgate stand while re-doing main and Leazes stand with larger concourses and facilities etc while not obstructing light or parkland too much
There’ll be no encroachment of the road bud and there’s actually no need to 👍🏻
Cracking vid eddie
👊🏻👍🏻
Great content as always !
Fantastic video great insight into a move or development
Great video Eddie! 👍 top content
👊🏻👍🏻
Fascinating andcwell researched piece
Thank you John 👊🏻👍🏻
Hi Eddy! I live right next to the Town Moor and Leazes Park and am very interested in their protection. However, I think snipping a bit off the park at the Leazes end, as you suggest here, is by far the most sensible option. It could really increase the stadium and revenue by just those few hundred metres jutting into the Town Moor, it wouldnt ruin the Victorian park or Leazes Terrace, and would retain the incredible and famous legacy (and atmosphere) of the current venue which is in a golden spot for football, for the city, fans and visitors alike. I dont see why we need a stadium of the size of cities like London and Manchester, when Newcastle is a small, compact city. 62,000 capacity would be ideal, plus there's also the option of Safe Standing which could also increase capacity. This is the ideal option! Thanks for researching all the other options, and all your great work! 👍
Thank you Claire 🙏
Great information Eddie.
Thanks again Geordie 👊🏻👍🏻
Great series Eddie.
Cheers Neil 👊🏻👍🏻
Our team's fans should have more than 100,000 people. If a new stadium is built, it should be large. and world-class luxury and have a capacity of up to 100,000 people 🎉🎉🎉
That's a brilliant informative video most likely the only option TBH to improve that capacity and quality of st James park eddy 👍👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it Charlie 👊🏻👍🏻
@@TynesideLife yeah definitely 👍👍 luck forward to the next 1nz...
Love it Eddie. Great series. The “Giant Yorkshire Pudding” gets my vote🤣.

Love the videos eddy inc your new channel. Don’t suppose you would like to do a piece on the current situation with ffp including current points deductions as it does make sense. Thanks
Hi Steve, glad you’re enjoying the channels. 👍🏻
You’ll need to elaborate as I don’t know what the confusion is? 🤷🏻♂️😅
Well laid out sensible fact based arguments there Eddie. Excellent work.
