Tickets Newcastle (A)

[rebus]

Have BFC started sending out Newcastle tickets in the post yet ? And if not, why not?

Because they have a home game coming up and then two free weeks to send tickets. Relax!

Game isn’t for nearly 3 weeks!

 

[sparky]

A friend and I just bought a ticket each. Should the thread title be updated?

They only assign the seat numbers once all have been sold right? If so they won't send out until all of them have gone (and as we've realised, news of the sell out may have been premature).

Mine had better arrive next week. I've got a week in Corbridge before the game.

Don’t put your mortgage on it.

I'm sure I read a Tweet, yesterday, that said there were 50 tickets left.

You can knock off £40 if you can get to King's X by half 6

Also, there are single tickets back to London on the Sunday morning for £40 - £50. Hotels in Newcastle on the Saturday night seem to be bloody expensive though, which I doubt is due solely to the visit of the mighty Bees so might be better to club 'n' brekky it, I expect that others on here may know of suitable venues.

Or there's a train at 1am for £40 but there are 3 changes and gets you back to London in the afternoon including a 6 hour layover in Stevenage. Which sounds sh*t.

There's very few trains due to engineering work. That has put the prices up.

Use booking.com.and there are some cheap ones although all hotels seem to have gone up.

I found a room in what looks like a hostel/hotel/Airbnb type thing. 15 mins walk to St James Park so fairly central for 60 quid for 2 nights.......probably will be a dive but I don't plan on spending much time there.

 

[RAF_Patto]

We're staying in the city centre Friday to Monday....I booked it when the fixtures came out. £117 each....I had a look earlier and was quoted over £250 each for the same hotel and dates! Madness.

Now, who has been before and give a lift of good watering holes?

 

[RodBee]

We are staying at Newton Ayecliffe (?) Saturday evening - 45 minutes south of Newcastle. Makes for a short return journey on Sunday and allows the grandsons to 'enjoy' the Newcastle night life whilst we watch MOTD!!!

Tickets arrived - Row R.

You will be spoilt for choice, if you want mayhem and a touch of Phoenix nights, try The Black Garter pub.
It’s in the centre and where the market traders all drink, full of eclectic characters who are great fun and Saturday is Karaoke night.
It’s difficult to describe but great fun, no trouble and very lively

 

[ianbees1]

Another option is to stay at one of the airport hotels and get the metro from there to the city centre, about 25 minutes.

Brittania and Premier Inn will probably be about £75 a night.

This popped up on my "On this Day":

“Nov. 5th, being the anniversary of Gunpowder Plot, great rejoicings took place at Newcastle and the other towns; at Durham, the Independent company mustered in the fields and fired three vollies; they then entered the city, and after firing in the market-place, they went to the Rose and Crown, and finished the day with drinking loyal healths”

The locals can get a bit lively...

 

[aslan]

Tickets turned up, just waiting on the binoculars

a last minute decision with only 20,000 minutes to the game!!

[paul_chatha]

I can't make the Newcastle game and therefore my match ticket is up for grabs.
The price is £30 and I will forward the money towards the GPG Running Costs Fund.

..............depending on where your seat is......I wouldn't feel jumpy...............

 

[HadleighBee]

..............depending on where your seat is......I wouldn't feel jumpy...............

I received mine over a week ago.

 

[Brentford_till_die]

tickets arrived - Row X

Same, although probably about half way up that stand

 

[Paul_T]

..............depending on where your seat is......I wouldn't feel jumpy...............

Got reply to say they were posted last Wednesday so I should "receive them shortly."

I'm probably more worried now as that's four working days already passed.

Relax. Start worrying w/c Nov 15.

 

[taylor339]

I've got my ticket (Row D) but looking for 1 more. If anyone has an Adult spare, please can they PM me.

So someone from ticket office just called to say the tickets have been returned to BFC for some reason so have confirmed home address and asked them to try again. Idiot postman at work I suspect.
