Some of my best days supporting Newcastle have come away from St James’ Park. I don’t mean that as a criticism of our home ground as, quite simply, it isn’t. Being at a match at St James’ Park can be a unique experience which is unrivalled so far on my travels, but being the adventurous [...]

Newcastle United head north of the border for their final pre-season game on Saturday, and will be taking at least 3,850 fans with them.
