Tickets Newcastle (a)

Newcastle (a)

@W13 Bee

Newcastle do provide data of who goes through the turnstiles we went to the cup game but didn't get our taps when I called the club they told me the data from Newcastle said we didn't attend, unfortunately we did! They wanted receipts to prove we went, after Xmas all receipts were binned. I got sick of chasing them and gave up.
 

Newcastle (a)

Flying in from Los Angeles, arrive in London (for the first time in 17 years ?) on the first. Train to Newcastle, back south for Chelsea on the sixth.

Odds of the Newcastle tickets trickling down to all members - say, those without TAP? Assuming since it's a midweek game with some healthy travel that I should be fine. Thank you - this will be my first Bees game, apart from the draw with Villa two summer ago in Maryland. Beyond excited!

I'm sure you'll be fine, if not there will be people here who can help out.

I’ll happily help procure a Newcastle ticket for you, if you find yourself struggling - I don’t think you will though.

Great support! Are you travelling over alone or with friends/family to see the games?

You will be fine getting a ticket for this one as long as your party are all members. The full allocation should be 3,000 and we only took 1,000 for the EFL Cup game.
That was also midweek - granted that was December and near to Christmas.

If we take close to 2,000 to this I will be very impressed. I wouldn't wait around to buy as you will get better seats by waiting - suggest go near the front for this one as even the front of the Newcastle away section is a long way back. The club might also return unsold tickets if they think everyone has had a chance, but hopefully people will get a few weeks to buy.

People will be happy to buy you extras for this because it earns the most TAPs of any game this season! But do what is right for you.

Thank you! This is good information. Planning on purchasing when all tickets go on sale (Wednesday 6am here in LA).

Flying out and Newcastle solo, but visiting family working in London this spring and might take my cousin to either Chelsea or a match-to-be-determined on Saturday the 5th. Will reach out for Chelsea ticket connections on this board if I don't hit the Bees Overseas lottery!

Just got the email saying there is train back at 10.17, is that doable you think? I'm not convinced, thinking stopping over is the low stress high cost option.
 

Newcastle (a)

Am in lancashire these days so its about the same distance away as gtech for me (3 and a half hours in car) But will have to take some time off work.

If they promise to try this time and not give stupid goals away (looking at you David Raya) i'll think about it ?

I'm sure the station is a steady 15-20min walk.
 

Newcastle (a)

Was there…an ahem interesting walk back to the station ????
It was very interesting.
Before that game Johhny M walked into their pub and slapped 20p on the pool table and shouted "play the winner".
They were gobsmacked and never said a word ?.
He even chalked his nose up ?

They are digital tickets again this time around.

Did you take any photos at the game or in the city on the day?

Do you have records on your bank statement or credit card.

This Berkshire Bee has just decided he's going to go. Not sure if any of my Essex Jessie lot will venture out?‍♂️. Now to decide which way to get up there? Train or fly??

I never check to see if TAPS have been awarded just assume they are, just checked and I didnt get this games TAPS either - I wonder if it was because I used the lift, cant remember if that meant not going through the normal turnstile

Apparently Newcastle provided data to the club on this type of behaviour.
In order to help them "weed out" the older, legacy fans, by making sure no TAPs were added for people who used the lift...........
So I've heard...........
Apparently...........
Allegedly.........

eh why not? dont do us like the cup match please:):)

Geordies are sound people anyway.
 

Newcastle (a)

Ticket and hotel booked, now just waiting on the code for the trains. Away the lads and all that malarkey.
 

Newcastle (a)

Players comps have the best seats yet again.
 

Newcastle (a)

They'll end up empty as usual! .. I can't imagine many, if any family members doing this one.
If they’re not filled a few minutes in I guess we could go and take them.

That should make no difference. It's going through the turnstiles or your ticket being scanned like at the gtech that proves if you have entered the stadium.
Our friends still haven't had taps for Lisbon
