The Carabao Cup fixture between Newcastle United and the Cherry Red Records Stadium has been rescheduled due to flooding in South London. The match will now take place at St. James’ Park in the North East after an agreement between the clubs and the competition’s management committee.
Fans who had tickets for the original fixture will be refunded, with payments processed tomorrow. Season ticket holders in the Carabao Cup Scheme will receive an email for payment before the weekend. Those not in the scheme can enter a ticket ballot starting on September 24th at 10am until September 25th at 10am. General sale for members and season ticket holders without tickets will start on September 26th at 10am.
It’s important to note that ticket on-sale periods will be shorter than usual due to the quick turnaround for this rearranged fixture. Seasonal hospitality clients will be contacted separately by the hospitality team. Hospitality for the match is still available, and for more information, you can reach out to [email protected].
This change in venue provides an exciting opportunity for fans to support their team in a different setting. St. James’ Park is known for its lively atmosphere and passionate supporters, which will surely add to the excitement of the match. The switch in location also poses a new challenge for both teams, as they will be playing in unfamiliar territory.
Overall, while the rescheduling of the fixture may have caused some inconvenience, it also offers a unique experience for fans and players alike. The anticipation for the match at St. James’ Park is sure to be high, with both teams eager to showcase their skills in front of a different crowd.
