    Who's going? Got booked up today, thought it would be easy. (Left it till I come back from holidays) I reckon I got nigh on the last two tickets for the Gallowgate. Not much left anywhere, east stand full, only a few odd ones in the Leazes. For some reason the website doesn't show the family enclosure though, so not sure about that one. The only place where there's a few together in the hideously priced ones in the Milburn.

    Going to be a canny few there. Flag day. Atmosphere should be electric!

    Howay the lads. Let's tear into them.

    I left it until last week to move Season Tickets from the family enclosure to the Leazes, and couldn't get two seats together for Saturday.
    But I'm told they'll be sorted for Reading.
    So for Huddersfield, I'll be in the Gallowgate.

    Come Saturday I will be sat in the Gallowgate End (not Stand as it says on the End) cheering the lads on and booing the Ref.

    I love Saturdays in the football season.

    Was there. Vague memories of 60000 Toon fans being there.










    Okay, maybe not 60000.

    remember this very well came out of the ground across the road and headed for the station
    where I was attacked by 2 people one punched me in the face and another smacked me in the back of the head
    trouble was it would of been impossible to point them out in a police line up as their uniforms all looked the same
    bastard Yorkshire coppers bent and corrupt

    we were on the 3rd train leaving the central station that day and there were loads more people waiting to get on the next train
    remember having to wait 30mins or so until the other train pulled into Huddersfield before the police would escort us all to the ground

    The streaming issue's the big one for me; last season I was able to see any PL match at any time in HD. Now?? No idea....

    The Gallowgate Flags should be interesting.
    I'm pleased I'll be in the end on Saturday.
