Nightmare on match days, dont even try to park in newcastle centre or anywhere near the ground. Best bet, is to park up at one of the Metro stations and get the train into to either Monument or Haymarket station, you can walk up to the ground from either of them. Be warned though its a bit of a nightmare after the match getting on back on the train (playing sardines with a load of sweaty, and no doubt depressed, barcodes isn't fun)
Have a look here - might be helpful

Obviously on the map St James station is next to the ground, but that to is nightmarish before and after match
Thanks for that mate, I'd have probs attempted to park in the centre of town like an idiot, before reading that!
Metro parking it is then
