Dare I say, not my favorite Newcastle structure surrounded by so much concrete.
Does this mean that the Mags will win again? MikeM
I’m hoping so MikeM!
Ash, hopefully noone will notice what you said so you won’t offend anyone ;)
I have been looking at football stadia (sorry I had a classical upbringing and don’t do stadiums) for a project I am working on and I have yet to find a one as ugly as St. James’. I honestly can’t think why the city council allowed this to happen. If it was in Gateshead we would be lining it up for demolition like the car park and the Dunston Rocket. I’m not knocking the football team just its home after all I have to look across the river every day and see this monstrosity.
Interesting viewpoint, from that car park roof! I’m with those who question the positioning of such a huge stadium where it is.
How ironic that so many “locals” don’t like the structure but so many football fans are envious of such a large city centre ground.
I’m a “plastic” Geordie and love the ground and location, but only wish it could have been built the same level all the way round. But due to its city centre status this isn’t possible.
As Kirsty says “compromise”
