I've been in Birkenhead for the last 21 years, so not at the same time as you. I've managed to find a couple more fans here, in addition to my two sons!!!
With Hull being moved to a Tuesday...anyone keen for the Preston match?
I'm going it's doable with a late afternoon set off 2.5hours from Newcastle and such a big game now.

Two more Seagulls based in Newcastle; me and Mark (originally from Whitehawk - him not me). Wylam, Darras Hall, Jesmond, The Coast - we've got some poshies up here haven't we!
We get to a few away games each season, usually driving, but train to some of the more local ones. Been going to northern poopholes to watch the stripes since 1989 and seen a few other Seagulls on route.
Would be interested in a north east meet up, but not in The Goose, shocking pub (imho) get in The Three Bulls next door!
Well got my tickets to Preston!
Recently moved up to Newcastle (heard all the jokes).
Any fans up this way at all? Keen to hit a few away games without always travelling alone, or watch the televised games.
Am in Widnes, so north, but not north east
Coming from Hove I had to find something close to equivalent....Jesmond not too bad! Where abouts are you?
Yeah not a fan of The Goose either. We need to make a pub the "North East Seagulls Headquarters" so there is no need to ask where we are watching the televised games...just turn up and join the other seagull fans.
Jesmond is canny place to live but was too pricey for me back in the day so I did my time up in Arthur's Hill, on Brighton Grove funnily enough. 25 year later I find myself up on Great Park, so well out of the city centre..
I will have a think about what pub I would like to suggest as the Newcastle base for any North East supporters meet ups - I don't bother with town too often these days but I am willing to do some research.
St Helens, just up the road from you. Been here 26 years now!
