Hi Eddie. Don't believe a word you hear at the minute , I worked for the architect's company who designed St George's park and I was sworn to absolute secrecy for over two years because of the complications it would have caused by letting the cat out of the bag . Yes St George's park was designed in Newcastle ! I was up and down to Wembley umpteen times with the full scale model which was under wraps until I and 5 others took it up to the FA boardroom . I couldn't tell anyone including the guys who helped me carry it to the boardroom . Burton Albion knew about it and so did the local council but nobody spoke about it until it got approval and just like Leazes park there's nobody going to say a word to you or anyone else until it's all ready to go to the city planning department .

Well exactly, I agree and I cover this point in more depth in my video bio if you get a minute to read it. What is misunderstood however, is that the club can’t just announce a plan to build a new stadium on land that they have no control over, or don’t own and for which the whole public gets to ultimately decide. And then once they’ve announced it, ask if it’s okay… That’s not how it works.

"How would Craig Hope, journalist know what the freemen are doing, but Urban Green wouldn't?" Urban Green would be the last people (other than the public) to know what is planned, they are a contractor that looks after the parks, they have no decision making authority. That's like saying "how would the owner of a business know there are going to be redundancies but the janitor doesn't?" No disrespect to you, but ARE just a You Tuber, you will be looked on differently to a mainstream reporter by confidential sources. The first we'll hear about anything concrete (no pun intended) will be in a press release from the club. An if anyone in the Freemen find out who your source is, they won't be a Freeman for much longer.

My aim is not to ascertain the views of fans in this instance. This has already been done through the fan survey which was conducted last year by the club. I’m already aware that many fans have developed an opinion based on a stadium 3D Animator who produces graphic’s for entertainment purposes. I’m personally motivated to investigate facts and circumstance and then inform my channel community, whilst also expressing my opinions, based on those facts; which overwhelmingly suggests a magnificent rebuild of our stadium. There are other channels to watch out there who will produce content in alignment with popular opinion, rather than research.

Eddie, no one doubts you efforts to get information from reliable sources but that just means investigative journalism to some extent. There may not have been discussions at any level between all the relevant parties you mention but that’s not to say it couldn’t or won’t happen. At the end of the day only the senior hierarchy at NUFC know what options they want to explore and if one of those happens to be Leazes Park, by virtue that there has been no discussions as yet, means it’s not dead in the water.

There's another scenario, though. Large organisations will often appoint planning consultants to advise and help develop major developments such as this. It's likely that NUFC have just such a consultant agency working for them. It is entirely possible that those consultants have been holding informal and tentative pre-application discussions with Newcastle City Council - indeed, it's more than likely. That means it's probably true to say NUFC are not sitting at a table with NCC, but they have representatives (planning consultants on one side, planning officers on the other) feeling their way through the feasibility of such a development before a formal planning application is made. This is standard industry practice. So... watch this space!

Interesting but little can be read from this. When I was in negotiations for land in UK and globally we would engage with individuals to find internal “champions”before a collective discussion with a Government or NGOs, I am sure plenty of this is going on. IF a rebuild in the current footprint is on the cards then there will be huge issues for logistics especially for material lay down areas if the club can’t use Castle Leazes or Leazes Park. Lots of water to pass under this bridge and no one knows until official announcements are made. I wouldn’t be surprised if an out of Town location is proposed, it would remove so many issues and as they saying goes, build it and they will come.

Barrack road re-routed down to the A186. there's loads of brown land used as temporary parking down diana and Pitt street and joining it back up with St James Boulevard . That means a new stadium can be developed over Barrack road.

Mind, if there's been no approach from NUFC to the freeman or council... doesn't that also rule out a full rebuild of the stadium (at this time)? Just a thought. Outline planning would probably be sought before any big decisions would be made - either for a temporary relocation site (as alluded to in the prior video) or for massing exercises on the proposed developments on the current site. To date, it would sound like there's been little more than a paper exercise within the confines of the boardroom, which means any development is likely to be years into the future - if at all.

Hi, i love all you videos and insights. The club have to conclude there feasibility and then make some internal assumptions about land cost and planning permissions. I don't think the club can speak to freeman or owners of Leazes Terrace parking spaces or ... until they have decided if investment is justified. I believe modifying SJP will not be cost effective and ultimately the council will be asked to support a Leazes Park new stadium and the council will coordinate with all stakeholders. If the council can't get permissions then PIF will have another option of investing in another club where they will be supported to build a new stadium. It's PIFs money and everyone in the town needs to support them

If the Newcastle ownership are yet to make a final decision on whether to relocate or renovate SJP, why would they have a need to speak to anyone? A decision is not expected until early 2025.

They’re not buying a car mate 😅 The club can’t just announce a multi billion pound stadium relocation plan onto land that they neither own, nor control, nor have had discussions about with land owners. Nor do they have a final say in the outcome. Regarding listed land in a Conservation Area, the public will get the final say. Since the club announced in August that their announcement was imminent, but have delayed that announcement, clearly there are some things to tie up. I agree they may not have decided, but that’s clearly not a decision between staying or relocating. It’s a decision between expansion and taking this ‘once in a generation opportunity’ and rebuilding St James’ Park. I elaborate a little more on this in the video description 👍🏻

@TynesideLife There is no evidence to say that the Club are even considering building in Leasowes Park. . . their preferred option may well be relocation to an area outside the City, perhaps already owned by the Ruben's. My point is they do not need to have conversations until Leasowes Park is an option. Building a new stadium in the Park whilst securing & maintaining the land/landmarks for the future may well be a very attractive proposition for the Land Governors especially given the alternative is a relocated SJP & zero future investment in the Park.

Here is a thought - redevelopment of SJP site. Could NUFC follow the SOL and, subject to St James Park metro system leaving it feasible, put the pitch below ground level in order to maximise ground capacity? Perhaps lose some parking (is it really needed given city centre location), move stadium down like SOL and slightly away from the listed buildings? 🤔

The reason there has been no discussion between the club, the council and the freeman is because there is currently nothing to speak about thus yet. If there are indeed plans for a new stadium the ball would have already been rolling. A new stadium is not urgent but it’s nice to know if those discussions are going to take place then it seems all parties are willing to talk about it.

Tearing down St James’ Park and building a new one in its place sounds great. Will it be big enough in capacity though? If it is will it be future proofed as demand for tickets grows through the years? Given current restrictions with the listed buildings, roads etc will future expansions to capacity be possible? A new stadium is the way forward but I’m not sure if staying in the same location if the right move. Can’t wait to see what said next year.

I have to agree Eddie. However I would love to see them build a new stadium. But I think the fact they have top architects looking at a very complex problem, means one thing and that’s an extension to st James park I really think they are looking at ways to build an extra tier on the east stand and using all the modern technology available to help them do it. I also expect the gallowgate to have an extra tier but not one that mirrors the leazes end. I think that will be purpose built so it can significantly increase the attendance I think the key words from the club have been a complex problem
