EDDIE HOWE has told Newcastle\u2019s Saudi owners to forget about leaving St. James\u2019 Park.<\/p>\n
Club chiefs are looking at ways to capitalise on the substantial rise in ticket demand.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The club sent a survey to fans earlier this week, asking what they should do with the stadium as the Magpies face unprecedented demand for tickets.<\/p>\n
Options include expanding the current city centre 52,000-seater ground, demolishing it and starting again or finding a new site elsewhere.<\/p>\n
Speaking last month, CEO Darren Eales said: \u201cWe know we have this fantastic location here, the cathedral on the hill.<\/p>\n
"But we know we have boundary issues and it's not as simple as if we had a lot of space. So what can we do?\u201d<\/p>\n
But Howe said: \u201cMy ideal would be that we stay at St. James\u2019 Park. <\/p>\n "The stadium is iconic and where it\u2019s situated in the city, there is nothing else like it.<\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s the heartbeat of the city, it\u2019s the thing you can see more than any other. Personally, I wouldn\u2019t want to see that change.<\/p>\n \u201cWe would like a bigger stadium though, we\u2019d like more people to be able to come and see us, so redevelopment would be my ideal.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n FREE BETS – BEST BETTING OFFERS & NEW CUSTOMER BONUSES<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cIt\u2019s an unbelievable place to play football so I wouldn\u2019t want to lose that.<\/p>\n \u201cSpace is a problem with where it\u2019s situated in the heart of the city, but ideally there are things we can do to get more people in.<\/p>\n \u201cI wouldn\u2019t want to see the stadium move out of the city, it would lose something.<\/p>\n \u201cThose are my own personal feelings, which might be different to what the club thinks.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/picture>'SUPERIOR' <\/span><\/p>\n
