Newcastle United's supporters group has expressed frustrations about the club's stance on season ticket prices.

The Magpies are not freezing or suspending payments for season tickets, even though many fans are facing uncertain financial times.

The COVID-19 outbreak has left many without work, and that should be a consideration for the club.

That is according to the NUST.

They said: "Last week NUST contacted Newcastle United to express significant concerns regarding season ticket payments. We did not receive a response.

"Yesterday (Tuesday) we went public with our request for the suspension of all future season ticket payments during this incredibly difficult time.

"There is no prospect of professional football recommencing any time soon given the current global health crisis, let alone the prospect of understanding the implications on timing on fixtures for next season.

"We find it incredibly disturbing that the club continues to take payments from supporters during these extremely difficult times, in what is a health and economic crisis.

"Following our call for the suspension and delay of all future season ticket payments Newcastle United contacted us earlier today (Wednesday).

"The club stated it has no intention of freezing or delaying payments, both for those that pay annually and monthly.

"We are disappointed that Newcastle United is unwilling to offer a meaningful support system to fans through this difficult time."
