Wallsendmag Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Aye Bishops are the only team who always used to apply for Promotion (when it was optional) but just never had the team to match their ambitions/fanbase/ground until now. Best of luck to them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Secured our tickets for the FA Trophy Final. Hopefully Gateshead can go one better this year! Shame it's the same day as NUFC v Brighton as no doubt that'll have an effect on how many travel. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bairn plays for their U11 Academy team and there's 42 of us, a mixture of parents and kids from his team getting the train down. Ticket prices weren't bad at all. Only a tenner for the kids as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paully Posted April 18 Share Posted April 18 Hebburn 4-1 - sone great goals and some great away fans there who follow NUFC too! Top lads! 10 wins a row is insane especially playing three or four times a week! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 Mad to think they were a Peter Beardsley Talk-in away from going bust not so long ago? Just want one more promotion after this one so they can be on Football Manager. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about doing a double header tomorrow. We're at Gateshead v Bromley at 12.15 and considering going straight from there to the Blyth game.

Now probably just going to do Blyth instead I think. Edited April 19 by ponsaelius Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checked the ticket prices and if we want a seat at the Blyth game tomorrow it's £42 for me, wor lass and the bairn or £38 if we want to stand. Seems a bit on the expensive side to me. Will decide on that one tomorrow. Not sure what parking is like at Blyth either cos we'd be cutting it a bit fine. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted April 19 Share Posted April 19 It's not looking too clever for all 3 NE sides with something to play for in the National League North. At least it is in Blyths hands, but Brackley know they will likely have to win to finish 3rd and get the bye to the semi final, so that will be a tough match. No idea if that Blyth takeover news will be seen as positive, negative, or neutral / expected, but they might be relying on a favour from Buxton to beat Farsley. Buxton can finish in the top half with a win and other results going their way, but not a huge incentive, plus they would avoid a lengthy trip next season if Blyth were to go, although doubt that will be in their thinking Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They don't seem too bad at home though, won 6 and drawn 3 of their last 14, and are the 10/11 faves to win the match. Its not in their hands, but I think I'd rather be in their position than Blyths.
