Father Ted Posted 2 September 2014 Share Posted 2 September 2014 Who's doing the night after on the Toon? Never personally been out up there but doing it this year with a few lads and looking to start booking accomodation and potentially travel. Any advice people based on previous experience (Cheap places to stay, cheapest/best way to get up there/best bars/clubs to hit)? (a Ric Flair story does spring in mind here, however that can wait for later!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Voll Blau Posted 2 September 2014 Share Posted 2 September 2014 Was up there for the Bank Holiday Monday game a few years back. Bigg Market area is a decent laugh, ended up in Tiger Tiger chatting up a pair of Geordie girls with my mate. Had no idea what they were saying but they seemed keen enough. Anyway, we both went to the pisser, ended up singing Leicester songs for about 20 minutes in there with some other blokes and by the time we got back they'd scarpered. What a pair of cretins we are. Last time I was up there for a night out for last year was visiting a mate and it was dirt cheap everywhere. Triple rum and cokes for £3 in one place! Always found Geordies very friendly folks although, like I say, the language barrier is a problem. Probably my favourite city in England for a booze up actually.

Dan LCFC Posted 2 September 2014 Share Posted 2 September 2014 Never even been to the city. Sadly money's probably keeping me out of a stayover here I know a Newcastle fan. Very sound lad. He actually wants us to win though he's become so anti-Pardew/Ashley that he wants them relegated to get them both out. They're a very disgruntled set of fans and I genuinely think we can get something here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicesterpool Posted 2 September 2014 Share Posted 2 September 2014 Yeah I'm already planning on making a weekend over this, that's why I'm not going to Stoke and Palace away I'm saving up for this one. Train fare is the killer as usual! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox92 Posted 3 September 2014 Share Posted 3 September 2014 Never ever been to the City so hoping we can get there. I imagine a lot will fancy Newcastle away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommeh Posted 3 September 2014 Share Posted 3 September 2014 9 of us in the Jury's Inn. Always stopped up here when playing Boro in the last few seasons, cracking night out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoyJones Posted 4 September 2014 Share Posted 4 September 2014 Agree with Jury's Inn, if you book early enough normally about £69-£79 for a triple room, but this close to game will probably be more expensive. Worked in Newcastle couple days a month between 2009-2012, good night out and never seen any trouble. If you are staying just in Gateshead (other side of the Tyne bridge) could just walk across bridge into night life area. Went to ground to pay respects when Bobby Robson died in 2009, ground was covered in scarfs etc. Decent people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sdb Posted 7 September 2014 Share Posted 7 September 2014 I'd love a reference if possible. Not sure it'd get through to me - what's the usual allocation does anyone know?? Always wanted to go to The Sports Direct Arena. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nalis Posted 14 September 2014 Share Posted 14 September 2014 Planning on seeing this with the missus and her old man. Both Geordies (though he follows Sunderland) so think our plan is three seats in the home end, particularly as two Geordie accents in the away end might take the piss a bit! Using Newcastle v Hull as a barometer there should be more than enough tickets on general sale for this one in the home section for anyone desperate.

ousefox Posted 14 September 2014 Share Posted 14 September 2014 This will be my first time back since I spent a year there which will be odd. My accommodation was literally just outside the stadium. Digital is the best place on a Saturday night for me. There are plenty of trebles bars where you get 3 for £5/5.50 so cheap as you like. Hopefully going with a couple of mates, as well as my cousin so should be a good away day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vardinhio Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 Go to a bar called "Mushroom", trebles for singles! Ended up in Flares last time I was there too which was quite funny as a few Keegan wigs were knocking about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ousefox Posted 17 September 2014 Share Posted 17 September 2014 So there is no way I can get a student ticket without going in? I assume you wouldn't be able to get them on the phone. Will probs get u18 and upgrade there if necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
