Back in Newcastle.
Week before bank holiday again.

Tried to look for a hotel this lunchtime.
Gave up.
The one we booked last year in Sunderland has more than doubled in price.
Rfl really need to sort this out!

We are second game on Sunday against wakefield before the hull derby.
Looks like I'll be watching on telly!

I've managed to book 2 twin rooms in South Shields for £55 each, metro into toon and it stops at st James - not ideal but it will do.

DON'T DIE WITH THE MUSIC IN YOU:13072.gif



Prices are ridiculous to stay in Newcastle itself. When first moved up there the RFL had a special hotel deal website that reserved accommodation for fans - no such luck now as prices have stepped up each year as availability became more sp. Cannot believe how many places are already fully booked and how much those left are charging. Bit the bullet last year and stayed near the Metro centre which whilst good is still a way out of the city. Will be looking for hotel further a field this time but getting less likely to go for the full weekend as cost is excessive and added travel to stadium each day is off putting.
Been every year to Magic for whole weekend each time but now less attractive as have to look for hotels outside the city itself which kind of spoils the fun. Will keep looking but now tempted to just travel up for the day for the first time since magic weekends began.
Never wanted this myself but time to go back to the Etihad next so that at least daytime travel is easier.
Really disappointed in the RFL who never seem to do anything to make it easier and more affordable for fans to travel.
Wonder if Nigel Wood et al have the same accommodation issues - guess not eusa_whistle.gif eusa_whistle.gif eusa_whistle.gif

There are hundreds of places to stop.

All it needs is a bit of research

Get a list of B and B s check their location to the metro system and book them.

The metro is quick clean and efficient and runs early to late.

You don't need anything else particularly as the metro drops you off 50 yards from the ground.

That's is pretty much how I feel about it too.
Last year we couldn't get anything in Newcastle but managed to stay at a lovely hotel at stadium of light £90 a night room only, then got the metro- this year that hotel was full up by lunchtime the day of the announcement.
We've managed to get a B & B in Sunderland. £40 single room, our family room £80 including breakfast but will need to get a taxi to the station and then the train/metro so all extra expense!

Too expensive in city centre, so waste of time going up there, will be watching at the pub.

Two of us going up on Sunday morning. Staying at Premier Inn - Quayside Sun night.
Leisurely drive back Monday.

£84 quid for Twin Room with breakfast.

Jobs a good un.

It's even cheaper if you forfeit the 'can cancel up to 1pm on the day' option.

Thanks Jools but I'd already worked that one out for myself as I've done it for the last few years.

Just pointing out a cheaper option.

Come and join us!

Newcy on Sunday night's not all that bad and there are plenty of fans who stop Sun and go home Mon.

I'll buy the first round (subject to Terms and Conditions).

All great if you don't have to worry about work /school on Monday- which is why the RFL need to go back to the bank holiday.

I must admit we have had a great time in Newcastle the last few years and this year we will be going Friday morning as usual but having an extra day and coming home Tuesday. icon_cheers.gif icon_biggrin.gifRUNK:
