Reciprocal Deal Agreed With Watford

United have confirmed a new reciprocal ticket deal with Watford which will lower prices for away fans
Newcastle United have confirmed a new reciprocal ticket deal with Watford which will lower prices for away fans attending the clubs' two Premier League fixtures this season.
The deal is the Magpies' second of the season following a similar agreement with West Ham United and its ninth overall since introducing the scheme for the 2013/14 season.
Reciprocal pricing offers away fans travelling to Premier League fixtures at St. James' Park cheaper match tickets in the visitors' section, providing their club guarantees the same low price for Newcastle supporters travelling to the corresponding league fixture.
As a result, away fans following the Magpies and the Hornets respectively will pay just £25 for an adult away ticket, £17.50 for over-65s, £15 for ages 16-19 and £10 for juniors when the teams meet at St. James' Park on Saturday, 19th September (3pm kick-off) and Vicarage Road on Saturday, 23rd January (3pm kick-off).
That represents a 30 per cent saving for adult Magpies supporters, 20 per cent for over-65s and 16 per cent for young adults based on standard prices at Vicarage Road (£36/£22/£18). Junior prices remain just £10.
Tickets for the home fixture against Watford are now on sale and can be purchased online at www.nufc.co.uk/tickets, by calling 0844 372 1892 (calls cost 7p per minute plus your phone company's access charge) or in person at the stadium Box Office.
Earlier this month, the Club also confirmed it would use its ring-fenced away fans fund to ease the burden of the rescheduled lunchtime kick-off at AFC Bournemouth in November.
Newcastle will discount away tickets for the trip to Bournemouth by £10, with adult tickets revised down to just £23, over-65s and under-16s reduced to £9 and tickets for Junior Magpies members and supporters requiring wheelchair spaces subsidised to only £1.
After two free trips to watch the team at Hull City and Everton last season, the Club has also confirmed that the independent Newcastle United Disabled Supporters Association (NUDSA) will again receive two free away trips this season, which will include tickets, coach travel, food and stewarding.
