Somehow I have let my land talk me into this. Granted we live in Warwick so it is not as bad as it is for most of you but it is a proper mission. One of my daughters is decent at hockey and her under 16 team I coach is still in the England hockey cup. We have had two sizeable away trips the last couple of weekends. Sunday we were in Chester and the week before we were in Thirsk. I asked her if she wanted to come with us to Newcastle “where is Newcastle?” “About an hour past Thirsk” “no. That is an awful idea”

Same row so I guess they’ve tried to keep people as close as they can to their original choice
Good, well in as much as it shows they had planned for this possibility and held some seats to move fans into. It is, of course, a shame it had to happen but it is in my mind a direct result of a crap draw and the ridiculous away fans area up there.
Wishing you a safe journey and hope for the sake of all the travelling fans that the lads can get a result up there.

Mine has gone block K, H row to block M, G row so very similar in terms of ‘closeness’ to pitch😊 - just much closer to the corner

Still, very happy to be going and hoping we can pull it off

The dull part of the south coast
The doris has been bellyaching about having a spa weekend somewhere for a while now, so this works nicely. Driving up early Saturday morning, booked into the Hilton next to Tyne Bridge for 2 nights. She can have her spa and 'treatments' Sunday afternoon while I'm at the game. Meet up later in town for beerage and curry. Head back on Monday.

Yes. I think that's an exceptional plan.
Spa and ‘treatments’ followed by beerage and curry? Now that really should be in reverse order. :lolol:

So they may be missing Isak, Botman & Joelinton for Sunday..

Either way, they'll still have to play on the front foot as they're at home and in pretty poor form (11 conceded in their last 4 PL games, no shots on target last night against Liverpool). That should suit us.

Feeling more optimistic about this one now than I was when the draw was made. But they're still favourites to go through.
