With membership charged at £35 a season, even if a member went to every home game, it would add £1.84 to each of 19 tickets. Suggesting a 16p saving for those paying £15 (£16.84) rather than £17.
However, these prices are simply not available anywhere in the ground. The following screenshots are from the club website and show the full price and concession prices for every game at St James park so far this season.
Clearly the cheapest adult ticket offered has been £27. But that’s not what you’ll actually pay, all tickets are subject to a £1 booking fee. So that means the cheapest ticket at Newcastle for a non-member adult is actually £28. Almost twice the £15 the BBC claimed.
Not quite as advertised.
