Well that's what Newcastle are offering their fans in order to boost the crowd, noise and capacity.....thing is would it work here or would those that have already paid for a full S/T be up in arms about it?

One perspective is, if these new fans took up the free offer, would it encourage them to purchase a future S/T or attend games in the future?

The damage I see, should the club offer the same incentive which I very much doubt, is that our 6,000 S/T holders give their freebie to someone who regularly pays on match days. In that way, gate fees would be damaged as that income would become non existent. Can't see this ever working at our club.

Good luck to Newcastle fans though....what a nice free Xmas present.
