I know it's a long while off yet but for anyone that is interested in doing the game and staying over, Travelodge have a winter sale on.
Me and 5 others have booked in Newcaslte Central for ?65 which gets us two family rooms for two nights (Sunday and Monday). Bargain.
Game is on a bank holiday Monday so we're going to make a weekend of it.
p.s do I need to take my Binoculars ?
