Stupid twat said anyone from Newcastle would have gone to Liverpool under the same circumstances as Carroll, not fussed that he's turned out to be shite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Spaceman Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I think it was time for a change, just hope they have someone lined up who can bring in one or two bigger names to help boost the crowds. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 What's happening with the stadium? They can't get the full funds for it, rumours about the location changing (which may effect the tenants for units inside the ground), crowds are nowhere near big enough to warrant a move.

Guest neesy111 Posted December 11, 2012 Share Posted December 11, 2012 I would like to go and watch Gateshead more but I hate Gateshead stadium as a football venue. Smaller more compact ground please. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 Anyone with a spare Saturday afternoon tomorrow should get along to Gateshead. Not often you get the chance to see Edgar Davids strutting his stuff at the International Stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heed Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Newcastle United FC and Gateshead FC Agree Fans Partnership Newcastle United have cemented their close relationship with neighbours Gateshead Football Club after agreeing a partnership which will make football even more affordable for fans across Tyneside. The clubs have teamed up to offer all Newcastle United members discounted entry to all of the Heed's home Football Conference Premier League fixtures during the 2013/14 season, with an adult and junior able to see 90 minutes of action for just £11 combined per match. On presenting a valid Newcastle United season ticket or membership card, Toon fans will be able to benefit from entry priced at just £9 for adults – a saving of £5 – while under-16s can already gain access for only £2 when accompanied by an adult. As part of the Conference Premier, the fifth tier of English football, Gateshead will be looking to mount a serious promotion push during the 2013/14 campaign but will face the challenge of a number of notable ex-Football League sides. Luton Town, Hereford United, Wrexham and Cambridge United will all be travelling to Gateshead International Stadium this season, with the prize of a return to the Football League promising some entertaining clashes. John Irving, financial director at Newcastle United, said: "We are delighted to offer our support to Gateshead. As well as being our closest neighbours, the clubs share a lot in common, particularly fans who would love to see both Tyneside clubs succeed. "Our partnership will give fans and their families even more affordable access to a high standard of football close to home so we hope as many people as possible can make it along to watch both clubs throughout next season any beyond." In addition to their close proximity, the clubs have a number of other close links, with current Newcastle assistant manager John Carver making in excess of 100 league appearances for Gateshead as a player and a number of current Magpies players, including Paul Dummett and James Tavernier, enjoying loan spells for the Conference club. And with Gateshead playing their home games just three miles from St. James' Park on the opposite side of the River Tyne, the Heed are now encouraging Toon fans to get behind their other local side and swell the numbers at the Conference Premier's largest stadium. Gateshead vice chairman, Brian Waites – the scheme's originator – said: "The cooperation and relationship between the clubs has flourished in recent years with the realisation that there are mutual benefits to be gained from working together. "Both clubs are committed to playing an important role in the community and this initiative is one more step in creating a sense of togetherness among people of Tyneside. As a lifelong fan of both clubs I am delighted to see this initiative get underway." For more information or to secure your Newcastle United membership, please visit www.nufc.co.uk/members.

triggs Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 I wouldn't be too familiar with the area. Would there be many people who are just Gateshead fans? Or would most of them be also Newcastle fans? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danh1 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Used to love going to Gateshead games back when they were in the Unibond League. Since they got promoted to the Conference I've stopped though as it seems the decent lads who attend are outnumbered by fucking divvies. And these divvies are worse than Newcastle United's divvies. I went to the cup game against Blyth two seasons back and wanted to leave at half time. Still though this news today is decent for them and should hopefully see a rise in their crowds, hasn't stopped a Heed fan I have on FB whinging his tits off though.

Yeah, he won't get cheaper tickets but at the end of the day surely the club getting a boost in attendances is the most important thing when you look at how poor their crowds have been.

Dr.Spaceman Posted August 31, 2013 Share Posted August 31, 2013 Heard they've had over 50 applications for the manager's role, including Dean Saunders and Terry Burton (ex-Wimbledon). Hope they don't go for another local manager with no reputation, they need someone who can attract players from other areas, reckon Saunders would be able to do that.
