Ok, I thought we could do with this. Our bid to be a host city for the England World Cup bid. So anything that may have an effect on this can be discussed here. Do you think it's a good idea?, how can it be encouraged?, what additional facilities would we need in place?

I realise that the departure of Niall has been mentioned on the SAFC thread but I feel that the big man deserves his own thread. He has done so much for SAFC and the city in general God knows where the club would be now if Niall had not formed his Drumaville board of directors six years ago. I...

. I couldn't find a logical thread to put this on (which is unusual, as we now seem to have threads that can cover most eventualities on the Newcastle Area Urbanism front) so I have started this new one. This can, if big things DO start happening, end up as the 'Project Thread' for the...

BBC News Construction is well underway and a tower crane is currently being assembled on site. Construction photographs to follow...

It's only right i guess :)

Well there is one for the soccer team so why not?

This planning application, though for Sunderland Football Club, appears to fall within the area covered by the Newcastle Metro Area Forum. So, in the interests of fairness, we should include it as a 'project', with its own project thread on here, I feel. There is also, understandably, a...

I think this stadium needs it's own thread, It's such an important part of Sunderland and it's future. I went on a tour of the place today, Thanks to my niece as a xmas present, and the stadium really is brilliant. It does so much outside of football that benefits many people. Anyway Niall...

Ideally we could have the HCFC thread moved from the Sports section. I can't find anywhere to put details of the new North Ferriby Academy and Training ground developments in our subforum though, so I've started a new Tigers thread. If you are a subscribed member of the official city website...

Gateshead Football Club today held a press launch to unveil the site and plans for their eagerly awaited new stadium development in the centre of town. To build on its goal to take the Club back into the Football League Gateshead FC will build a new state-of-the-art stadium on a derelict site...

You just know that when things are going so well and we seem on the verge of a good run (in the Prem) that a game like this weekends against Birmingham City will end in defeat. Not sure who should come in to replace Cattermole? Think Bruce will go for Henderson and id probably agree with that...
