St James's Park

Home of Newcastle United (the best supported if not best team in the world) St James's Park (I never know how you're meant to do appostrophies for words ending in s) is undergoing huge redisign. This means it now squats over the city like some sort of giant insect, visible from just about everywhere in town. As part of the changes the powers that be have decided to kick the season ticket holders to the back of the stadium to make way for 'corporate hospitality' areas. This has not pleased the average Magpies fan - and has resulted in a court case which is even now winging its way to the court of appeal.
