Things to do in Newcastle- St James’ Park Stadium Tour December 21’ - Highly recommended!!

[@NUFC-ge4ui]

You've quickly became one of the best content creators out there for Newcastle. Another top quality video today. I've heard from a couple of people that the Gallowgate use to be the former away end back in around the 50s/60s not sure if it's true though. Keep up the excellent content and have a great chrimbo and new year ⚫⚪⚫⚪

[@TynesideLife]

That’s a very good question but I’ve never heard that before… especially as the Gallowgate had always been the larger stand. Hopefully an older supporter will see this and respond. Thank you very much for the kind comment! 🙏🏻

[@malcolm3370]

@@TynesideLife Aye the Gallowgate was indeed the away end in the 50/60's and early 70's, the main home support was in the Leazes end. An example of this was the cup match against Nottingham Forest which was abandoned following fans invading the pitch, spilling out from the Leazes end.

[@TynesideLife]

@@malcolm3370 I’m a bit baffled as to why the away team would have the larger stand? Was that particular match not just due to it being a cup match and of high status at the time?

[@pww6581]

I can remember the away fans being housed in the Gallowgate, early seventies. Leazes stand was the home fans, singing end.

Thank you very much 🙏🏻 Yes Richard is a nice guy and know his stuff. Really enjoyed the tour.

[@conorsmith8551]

£15 for an hour and a half tour is great value !!! Have you done any other stadium tours in Europe eddy? The Real Madrid one would probably cost double that !! I think that might have turned me off doing it at the time because I did the Vicente Calderon one before it was demolished the year later or so and I seem to remember it was affordable, like 10 euro or something whereas the bernabeu one was like 30 euro ? was a quality tour at the old atletico ground, very well done . This looks like good fun too

Thanks for the tour Eddy, I saw Frank Clark behind you on the wall and I remember his first goal for the club against Bournemouth in a league cup game before the sponsors came in. I'm sure it was his first goal maybe someone will correct me. I was walking up king street in Jersey when Frank who was the manager of Nott's forest at the time came walking towards me and I said hello to him I reminded him of his goal and I was at the game. We talked about Newcastle and other things a nice man and a long time servant at the club.

My first game was with my dad in 2008 I was 11. Played against a new man city team, I remember seeing Robinho and being amazed. We were winning 2-1 and they equalised in the last few minutes. Funny story, I won the tickets through a poetry competition in primary school, got my dad to write the poem and I won! haha!

Brilliant mate!! Nothing better than getting to see a famous footballer only a few feet away, I was in awe getting to see ibrahimovic for Sweden when they played Ireland in Dublin in 2014, he was sensational that day , real quality. His hometown in malmo he was treated like god until he insulted the team by taking up ownership with a rival club, be like shearer taking a stake in Sunderland 😂😂 they tore down a statue of zlatan after it was defaced multiple times. But malmo is another football mad city like Newcastle and it is great to see how the people are so proud of their club . Take care

[@phreffable]

Yes, a city with a fantastic, working class history, the legendary Jarrow marchers and all that. Now they have sold their collective soul for the chance of fame. They rejoice in their club being sold to a brutal, genocidal regime, where beheadings of dissidents and LGBT people are commonplace, and the slaughter of a journalist was carried out before the international community. We have a corrupt government in the UK, which regularly profits from arms sales to the Sauds, so we cannot rely on it to take them to task, which means it falls on the citizens of this country to do it. The Jarrow marchers would be ashamed of the. Newcastle fans of today. Morals before money.

@@TynesideLife True but Aramco is all over F1 and you never hear any complaints.

[@TynesideLife]

@@peterr11 IMO it’s a bit different. F1 Cars currently need oil to operate so it’s a natural sponsor… for now. Oil/Gas/Coal are global swear words now, for good reason. Make no bones about it, the PIF have an agenda and our club is ideal to spearhead that for them. This isn’t about us (although we’ll reap some benefits), it’s about Saudi Arabia. If we get sponsored by Armaco, put your crash helmet on

[@peterr11]

@@TynesideLife Ultimately it doesn't matter who sponsors us from SA we'll get slaughtered regardless. If it's not Aramco then it will be another company in the petrochemical arena or industrial or banking sectors as that's the makeup of major SA companies. You can pick fault with all those areas of business and you know the haters won't waste time doing just that once it's announced.

[@TynesideLife]

@@peterr11 it does matter unfortunately. If an airline, banking company or hotel chain sponsor us, we’ll receive no more flack than we’ve already been getting from human rights activists. If it’s an oil or petrochemical company, the global climate change movement will crawl all over us. Personally I’d rather it wasn’t them. 🤷🏻‍♂️
