St. James’ Park

Das Stadion von Newcastle ist sehr schön!
Es hat eine sehr besondere Aussicht, wenn man im
3. Oberrang sitzt, denn man kann aus dem Stadion heraus
über die Stadt schauen, was ich bei meinem Besuch
wahnsinnig beeindruckend fand. So etwas habe ich
bisher noch nirgendwo gesehen und ich habe viele
Stadien gesehen!

So the new Bond movie is coming out. Based on a true story: Me and Bond pull up in a car and there was a cute girl. He’s about to try and pick up the girl (not literally) (I don’t think?) so I send him away! Not even kidding! I Sent James to Park the car! And then I totally got her number and she left! Sorry JB. Not sorry.
The movie is called «Sent James to Park.»
This stadium is named after it.
First-​Hand Experience: Unilocal asked me to include more information about my personal experience at this stadium, so here it is. Every time I’m in Newcastle, I come here. So about 10 times, most recently in 2014. I’ve seen football here, I’ve shopped in the club shop. It’s one of my favourite stadiums. I have pictures of me here.
I’ve been to virtually every significant stadium in the UK & US, due to a lifelong obsession with travel, sport & especially footy (soccer to Americans). Born and raised in England, I followed Oxford United (my hometown team) to many stadiums all over the country at away games, and later followed Liverpool (my fave team) around. Every stadium review — like all my reviews — are from personal experience at these stadiums from multiple visits. In 2011, I was on music tour in the UK, and visited these stadiums then, also. As recently as Fall 2014, when I was «stuck» in the UK for 3 months, I visited all of the stadiums as I travelled around the country. I have pictures of many of them which I will post in future. Also, when I’m back in the UK I plan to take more pictures, and add more stadiums too! So watch this space!

Actually it’s one of the best stadiums in the UK, if not in Europe. If you’re in the big stand across from the smaller side, then you can see a beautiful vista of the whole city of Newcastle during your game. How incredible is that? It’s old, but it’s beautiful. It’s right in the heart of the city centre, on a hill, so it overlooks the river and bridges and whole city. There is surely no better location in England (except for some of the seaside towns) for a stadium. It’s also one of the biggest.
It can hold 52k people and was built in 1892. It was used in the 2012 Olympics, and has been used for England matches. In the Premier League, only Arsenal and Man United have bigger stadiums. England most recently played here in 2006.
It was a main location for the awesome film Goal! starring Kuno Becker.
Also: If you’re ever up in the North East, one of my fave parts of the whole world, make sure you try a Cheese Savoury sandwich, go to a place called Superpie in Gateshead for the best Cheese Savoury you’ll ever have.
