Seems like a fair balance to me. Shame bloody Middlesbrough are in there though.
Assuming its on a Saturday, I think a weekend in Newcastle could be in order, with the short-ish hop down to the Riverside just for the game.
Would undoubtedly be preferable to spending a day in Middlesbrough. Never seen a game there, but I had the misfortune to spend some time in the town on an A Level Geography field trip in about 1995. Passing through en route to Hartlepool over the last couple of seasons, very little seems to have improved.
We had a cracking night out in Middlesbrough season before last when we played Hartlepool, grim place but a good night out.
We've exchanged journeys to Carlisle and Hartlepool for a single trip somewhere even further south and still you Southerners are moaning! Spare a thought for the gruelling trips Middlesbrough fans have to face.11 Southern, 6 Midlands, 6 North and one Very North.
