Ticket News Gateshead (a) - Mon 5th May 2025

[Barling Magna]

I've got my ticket. Hoping for a victory but I'll be happy enough with a draw. Making an early start in case the bank holiday traffic is bad.

 

[Harry Bullocks]

All living relations are Geordies, and often asked why more don't occasionally take in the Heed when Newcastle are away/not playing?
They want Heed to do well, but can't be bothered making the effort to go and watch a standard of football five tiers down, that, and getting in the car etc to actually sit in a soulless stadium.
Remember, the two are less than a mile apart.
At least Wet Spam are 20 plus miles away.

Thanks, surprised of Hampshire

Not long to go fellow shrimpers another big turn out by us I’m praying we do get promoted this season

Sensible. We’re leaving Suffolk at 6am

no planned road closures en route (including from Southend). If I had my old car I’d be leaving at 10 ha ha. On the road about 8 from North Essex.

That’s your own fault for biking it up there on your Mongoose.

It was actually a clapped out astra gte that was on its last legs. I actually left it there and got the train home as I didn't trust that it had another 12 hour nightmare left in it

I had a Astra GTE Mk1 what a car that was.

Breaking the journey up.
Head up the A1 Sunday night...3 hrs in...hotel.
Brekkie in the morning....couple of hours to gateshead.
I'm nervous tbh.
I done grimsby, Morecombe for example.
But I also done Stockport 87, Peterborough 90
Bury 91
Swansea 06
Great away days.
Please let this be another one.

I wish everyone a safe trip and a great day (and hopefully result) but is Monday really comparable to these occasions?

We're in the equivalent of Last 16 position in a cup currently. 4 results from glory.

It doesn't feel like promotion is a decent possibility to me until we're 2 games away.

It's important in that if we lose it is season over. Win or draw and we get at least 1 more game.

After all these depressing seasons we've been through? After sneaking in to the playoffs so late?

Yeah, to some, it is comparable.

 

[Grayson]

We are comparing it to win and get promoted games, though. We're still a sub-10% chance to go up. It's great to be in the mix but it isn't like the others.

 

[The Company]

Gateshead fans are already planning their travel to Rochdale, very confident they will get the win in front of a 3000+ crowd which is massive for them
