Newcastle United fans have been slow to take up their season tickets.
The Sun says fans are hitting hated owner Mike Ashley in the pocket with almost 12,000 season tickets left unsold.
Yesterday the Toon put them on general sale after the deadline passed for existing holders to renew their seats.
A staggering 11,710 tickets still up for grabs. That is 6,500 MORE than this time last year.
Newcastle usually flog around 42,000 season tickets every campaign and sold out their allocation in 2017.
