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

Kickoff times might change, i'm being told the NL have yet to announce. Was it 1pm for all teams last year ? Better not be 4 or 5pm thats a helluva drive home. Thinking drive up and hotel night before

Why would they change? I thought the whole reason it’s on the Monday is so they can broadcast whatever game they want at 3pm. There’s no reason to change it further.

 

[Roger The Alien]

Ideally I like us to seal our play off place before we can play them, hopefully the last game is an deciders for the 4th/5th place and home advantage

 

[DCC]

Surely they can’t change the kickoff time now, lots of people (like me) will have already booked travel around the publicised 3pm time…

And not just our game, all the other National League games too.

There may be a misunderstanding here - even a misconception.

Priority is given to those sat watching on the telly [interweb] ........... not the fans that put in the time & effort to get to games ................

Hotel booked months ago, as wedding anniversary plans mean I cant get to the last home game of the season. The final away game was the sweetener! Match tickets booked, driving up Saturday and staying up there for the weekend.

How is everyone getting up there?

Private helicopter for me.

Yes. Flown by Captain Ron.

9hrs 41m by train direct from St Erth, Cornwall - 27 stops!
There is a journey quicker by nearly 30 mins, but it demands a hop across London from Paddington to Kings X.
I'll sloth on the one train, and yes, it will be the day before; returning the day after...

The travel time is one thing, but I'd love to know the price for the return journey.

Network card is **** all use outside the south east. I think it should be across all Uk travel

Was £140 from Southend, no railcard

Seems expensive even without the card?

This is Senior Rail Card - usually 30% off.

Am going Sunday; One has no choice leaving from deepest Cornwall.

Not, that I can see; have used Trainline for all purchases. The catch, if any, is making sure the train is on time.

Ridiculous
