The owners have commissioned a feasibility study into increasing the number of seats on the current site, but that is not easy because of space and engineering challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Mail Sport revealed this year that the club had bought key land behind the Gallowgate End with a view to developing that stand, although the area will be used as a \u2018Fan Zone\u2019 for now.<\/p>\n<p>And when asked for his opinion on the club\u2019s future home, Howe said: \u2018My ideal would be that we stay at St James\u2019 Park. The stadium is iconic and where it\u2019s situated in the city, there is nothing else like it. It\u2019s the heartbeat of the city.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/06\/17\/78655077-0-image-a-1_1701883989358.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Newcastle are canvassing opinions from their fans over whether to re-develop St James&#8217; Park or move away from the iconic stadium<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/06\/17\/78655243-0-image-a-2_1701884037274.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>But their manager Eddie Howe has claimed that he wants the club to stay at the\u00a052,305 capacity football arena<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/06\/17\/78654999-0-image-a-3_1701884042716.jpg\" height=\"423\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Howe added that he would &#8216;like a bigger stadium&#8217; but said &#8216;space was a problem&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It\u2019s the thing you can see more than any other. Personally, I wouldn\u2019t want to see that change. We would like a bigger stadium though, we\u2019d like more people to be able to come and see us, so redevelopment would be my ideal.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018That\u2019s my opinion, without discussing it with anyone. It\u2019s an unbelievable place to play football, so I wouldn\u2019t want to lose that.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Space is a problem with where it\u2019s situated in the heart of the city, but ideally there are things we can do to get more people in.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle could, in theory, rebuild in the current location or move to a site near the River Tyne just beyond the city centre. The alternative would be to move out of town.<\/p>\n<p>Howe said: \u2018I wouldn\u2019t want to see the stadium move out of the city, it would lose something. Those are my own personal feelings, that might be different to what the club thinks.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Chief executive Darren Eales spoke to supporters recently about plans for accommodating more of them for home matches.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018The whole concept is to look at the art of the possible,\u2019 he said. \u2018What we want to know is what is truly possible?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/06\/17\/78656043-12833653-image-a-20_1701885386302.jpg\" height=\"476\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Newcastle could rebuild on their current location or move to a site near to the River Tyne<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/06\/17\/78655013-0-image-a-8_1701884893157.jpg\" height=\"411\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Newcastle have won seven of their eight Premier League fixtures at St James&#8217; Park this season<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We know we have this fantastic location here, the cathedral on the hill, but we know we have boundary issues and it\u2019s not as simple as if we had a lot of space. So, what can we do?<\/p>\n<p>\u2018There will be hypothetical questions. They will ask, for example, \u201cImagine if there was a brand new stadium built on this site, what would you think?\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;That doesn\u2019t mean we are doing that, it is about building that construct and getting that information from fans on what we do going forward.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018We need to understand demand. I am really excited about it, there has been a lot of talk for the last 30 years, so this is our way to have a look.\u2019<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off\u00a0is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football, launching with a preview show today and every week this season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube , Apple Music and Spotify<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12833653\/Newcastle-Eddie-Howe-St-James-Park-new-stadium.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Newcastle boss Eddie Howe admits it would be his &#8216;ideal&#8217;
