Newcastle United cancel tickets purchased by a Scottish school for next week's Champions League game against Barcelona.
There are around 1000 tickets on average for each #nufc game, seemingly sold / available to purchase. The prices change, seem in line with the fixture, tickets come and go, and the @Trustpilot rating suggests it's all above board?

However the Alexander Isak saga eventually concludes, let’s hope that at some point the player has the good grace to acknowledge the debt he owes Eddie Howe for helping his development into one of the best players in the world and also apologises for causing such chaos. It’s one
