The cost of policing the match will negate any revenue we earn, especially as the tickets will be £3 a pop.
I can see an away fan ban on police advice.

So can I and I didn’t even consider the economics of it, I think the club will want no away fans too considering that.

Be surprised if police didn't try to ban away fans for this match, would be a shame though for the genuine Newcastle fans who have followed us home & away.

Yeah. Could do it with previous check a trade purchase history

Total no-win for us. If we lose, we'll never hear the end of it. If we win, it's "It doesn't count, it was only the Under-21s".

Wouldn’t say that’s a no win like because I couldn’t give a shit if we win and they say that. Turn up, do a professional job on them and that’s that.

A number of minor rule changes have been confirmed for 2018/19 with EFL clubs now being given the opportunity to name players who are out on loan at National League clubs, whilst invited teams will only be able to name two players who are over the age of 21 and have made more than 40 first-team appearances.

I'd be very surprised if we fielded anything other than our u21 team. We aren't exactly doing very well and xmas period is rammed full of games anyway. This will be all set up for hype but we will play our u21 team and the team full of pro's from the lower leagues will triumph. That's the purpose of the whole competition. It's a non starter really. It will get bigged up and idiots will be idiots and then the sensible outcome will happen and not one shit will be given by either sets of fans.
