royal balls up by NEBF.

very busy week this week and now can't get local accommodation in the city. Not getting a bloody taxi to whitley bay or south shields.

last train home is 2 hours too early so I'm knackered as I can't even pull 2 or 3 together for a mini-bus. People needing the money for Christmas etc...

so a bit gutted as this show looks excellent.

I for one think Salita will provide Khan with a test. A good one. He has excellent amateur pedigree. And as for Mitchell vs. Prescott, well this fight is absolutely intriguing.

I had tipped Mitchell late, however, having looked at them, Prescott looks, bigger, and he looks confident and relaxed, whereas I do not think Mitchell did at all. Prescott looked like he had the eye of the tiger if you like.

I am also gutted that I'll miss John Simpson who I always enjoy watching, in what looks like a decent match up. As well as Arthur versus Wright. And also Gavin, and Smith.


Degale and Enzo, for me, pose little attraction.

As far as I was aware it's sold out, if so you should be able to pick one up outside, if not get yourself just up the road to the pink triangle where you will certainly see some ring action.

nah can't see an Amir show selling out. Personally vs. Barrera it was rammed but I'm sure there were still maybe 500 tickets left.

i am told vs/ Kotelnik it was nowhere near full.

The Newcastle venue I have never attended, I would bet on getting a ticket tho. That said there isn't a room in the city free so who knows.

I would be quite reluctant to go trying my luck for a ticket round the streets. Too much fckin about.

There is a kid on gumtree selling two tickets at face value (not sure if he still has them the ad was put on 5hrs ago), he lives just up the road from me, if anyone wanted them I could pick them up and drop them off in Newcastle at 5:30pm as I'm on my way to Whitley Bay for the ice hockey at that time.
