We are planning a trip to England and in order to get EPL tickets for United, we had to purchase a membership to United. Arsenal was the same.
Various levels but some do give access to their EPL away games and European tickets. Don't know if all the teams do it the same way or not, but I would start there.

Mason Mount expected to miss 4-6 weeks.
Supposedly hurt his ankle but I don't remember seeing him in either game this season?

You have zero chance of getting a ticket in the Newcastle end. If you just want in the stadium (and can be sensible if/when Newcastle score) elsewhere then it's going to be draw dependent as to what you need to do

Yeah, figured as much. Still might be fun just to party with everyone in the city.

Yep, I did this to go to St. James Park when I went several years back and have had a membership every year since. But I can’t earn loyalty points or anything this year.
I might try titus’s suggestion to get a home ticket and behave. I’ve seen that suggestion elsewhere.

I mean that's a decent plan. Always a possibility that if you ask around for spares you find someone who knows someone who couldn't travel, has work, got too pissed etc and needs to offload one. Happy to give you specific suggestions once the draw is done and you know who you're playing, chances are you'll get at least one opponent where I know the area (which is tempting fate to give you something like PSG, Porto and Galatasaray etc)

Might be your best call. Not sure what the secondary market is like there as opposed to the US. You might also check some Newcastle supporters groups in your area. The United group in LA often plans trips and has access to tickets others might not get. Make sure they are the official group per the club

It's an entirely different thing for an away game though. Particularly when Newcastle are back in the Big Cup for the first time in the best part of two decades. Many clubs will hold home tickets specifically for overseas fans, supporters clubs etc, away tickets not so much. You're not going to find any secondary market for away tickets either, at least one that is legal and trustworthy - reselling tickets for over face value is illegal here (YMMV with other Euro countries) and there's often methods to prevent resales even at face

2018 semi's Bayern VS Real Madrid We got tickets through 1 of the ticket apps.
all the other Europe games except 2 I also got tickets through ticket apps.
The 2 exceptions, Arsenal at home ,i got them through a friend of a family member. Arsenal at Man U , we got the VIP tickets through Man U site

Yeah, that's what I would do. Probably would just wear some regular, non-Newcastle clothes.

I guess this was inevitable but I kind of hoped that they would have taken the path to merge with the new MLS team instead of drawing a line in the sand saying they had no interest

The San Diego Loyal will cease operations following the 2023 USL Championship season “after a viable near- and long-term stadium solution in the market did not materialize,” the USL announced Thursday. The franchise rights will be transferred, the league said.

I believe it's just a case of getting the passolig sorted and then it's moderately simple from there. I'll have a look at a group I'm in this evening to see what to do, Istanbul's somewhere I want to go for a game sometime in the near future

Noel Gallagher, noted Man City supporter and Hall of Fame troll, was headlining a festival in Newcastle (ish) the day after the Man City match.

Damn, some NY fans paid in the $1000's today to see Messi and he is not starting. Maybe he will come on as a sub....

I live in Miami but haven't been interested in Inter Miami......until Messi came. Since then, I haven't missed a match, just to see how long this crazy run is going to last.
Granted, it's the MLS versus the highest levels of European football, but damn. He is the true epitome of someone that makes those around him better. The Red Bulls may not be the best comparison, but Inter Miami downright sucked eggs before he (and Busquets and Alba) got here. That team is really starting to believe in themselves. Not sure they will get from the basement to a playoff spot, but at least they are fun to watch now.

So this morning, I watched a bit of the Bayern/Augsburg game. Then I watched the entire Juventus/Bologna game. Then I watched the Palmerias/VascoDeGama game. When that one was over, I watched the end of the Minnesota/Sounders game. Yeah, I know cool story bro who cares.
Well, it didn't click in until the 3rd and 4th games, and I was like, wtf. But each stadium was the Allianz stadium (or some variation thereof). I knew Bayern's stadium was Allianz, but never knew the others. And I guess there's like 7 of them ffs. Either way, very weird that the stars aligned like this all on the same day.
Carry on.

Dammit.
I was there today... just left -On the 7 train for home now. I totally would've watched that.
We wrapped up our day watching Mrs Jozy (Sloane Stevens)... Pretty sure he was there watching. I have a zoomed, fuzzy photo I took- guessing it's him based on his size (jacked).

This is really interesting. A bunch of original MLSers talking about the early years, the small pay, the travel etc. It is interesting to hear that conditions that would be unacceptable to the lowest level academy player today were the norm for the top players of the club back then.

Tata Martino dropped a bit of a news bomb regarding MLS not playing through FIFA’s international fixture dates: “I have it understood that they are analyzing that for next year. “It is probable that that will happen.”

When I was in Minneapolis last December, I took the train into St. Paul and to my surprise as it passed Allianz Field. I did not realize that was the name of Minnesota United's stadium.
I had to get off the train and take some pics.

Southgate trying to out Berhalter GGG.
Calls up Maguire, who is yet to play this season and didn't play much last season. And to make his point, he calls up Kalvin Phillips, who hasn't played in a year since getting injured in his move to City.
Leaves Sterling and Ward Prowse at home....
