Our epic David versus Goliath FA Cup clash with Newcastle United in 1998 definitely put our humble club on the footballing map. Our 1997-8 FA Cup Round Four battle had the world’s focus squarely on us. And made things a little bit tense between us too; the Toon not happy that we wanted to play our home tie at home. No matter what that Shearer lad says, it never crossed the line in the replay.

Not a problem, however. Well, not after our convincing 3-1 win in the 2010-1 FA Cup. If ‘convincing’ is doing that enough justice…

Newcastle United Travel Information – Distance: 248 miles

By Road

With the A1/A1(M) making up most of your journey to Newcastle, it’s a relatively easy trip to plan. Time-wise, you’re looking at around four hours on a good day. Go north for about 239 miles until you reach the junction for the A184, come off the A1 and join the A184.

As the road starts to bend round to the right and then left over a roundabout, it becomes the A189. You want to remain on this for nearly a mile; crossing the Tyne in the process. Go right into St James Boulevard, before a left after half a mile puts you on Gallowgate.
