Geordie boy visited St Mary's Stadium on 06/11/2022
Game watched: Southampton 1-4 Newcastle United
A game of two tickets 🎟 the first tickes we bought were for the away end,being Newcastle fans this was the logical approach.
We traveled down on Saturday morning and me my son & my mate spent Saturday night In two of the local pubs. Match day We got to the pub where all the toon fans were meeting up before the game. This was about 10.45/ 11am everything was going well & the atmosphere was building the more the drink was going down & the pub was filling up. It was only then we found out we had left our match tickets at home, we were at a very low ebb ( not surprising really. ) we hot footed down to the stadium & tried to resolve the problem we had. After about 1hour 20 mins it was a no go, not to be out done we were able to sweet talk a home fan to buy 3 tickets for us & we gave him the money & few quid for a drink for him & his lass and the rest they say is history.
1- 4 to the toon jobs a goodin!!!! Even the six hour drive back could not dampen our spirits.
