Allocation for Saturday

[splott parker]

I know most have already been up there , whether in the Premier League or Championship, but I asked today, when down there getting mine, how many we’d been allocated for Saturday and it surprised me that it was only 1300. The Newcastle novelty seems to have worn off, that Friday night game in the Championship it seemed like we had thousands up there. Hell of a hike up mind, both travelling up & when you actually get to the ground, Sherpa Tensing would see it as a challenge 😂😂

Worse than Liverpool towards the back?

It was originally 1700, so I’m surprised to see it has been reduced.

We’ve got 40-odd on our coach going up.

Last time in the prem it was 19 !

See I didn’t find it a bad view.

Long way from the pitch, yes, but the angle means you can at least see what’s going on.

As for the place, I like it. Great bars, mostly friendly locals and they are absolutely footy mad and only care for their local side, unlike many other places ...

Totally agree, great view

It's awful. You're so far from the pitch you might as well not be there. I was hugely disappointed when I went there in 2010. We didn't even bother going back to our seats for the second half as watching the TV in the bar was far more enjoyable.

I can just imagine you watching a game there, TJ.

Reminded him of his Subbuteo heyday Dave !

[Ras Malai]

Hats off to anyone going up there. Wouldn’t go back if Vinny laid a jet on for me, and gave me a ticket..

I think that's the theme throughout the North-East. Hartlepool, Boro and Gateshead fans are very loyal too, at least they used to be. I haven't been up that way for donkey's
