You have to ‘laugh’ – Total miles Newcastle United fans will travel for 2024/25 Premier League games | OneFootball

We now know all Premier League clubs for the 2024/25 season.

Sunday saw that list of 20 completed.

Southampton defeating Leeds at Wembley.

So the Saints come up along with Leicester and Ipswich.

Meanwhile, Burnley, Luton and Sheff Utd go down.

The 2024/25 Premier League clubs, number of miles round trip from Newcastle United / St James’ Park to each of the 19 stadiums:

288 miles – Man City

340 miles – Nottingham Forest

352 miles – Everton

356 miles – Liverpool

360 miles – Leicester

420 miles – Aston Villa

440 miles – Wolves

546 miles – Arsenal

562 miles – Chelsea

562 miles – Fulham

566 miles – Tottenham

566 miles – West Ham

570 miles – Ipswich

582 miles – Crystal Palace

582 miles – Brentford

645 miles – Southampton

689 miles – Brighton

698 miles – Bournemouth

Talk about Newcastle United as the most northerly outpost…

It could have been a fair bit better, if say Leeds (190 miles round trip) had got promoted and Burnley (235 miles) and Sheff Utd (271 miles) had survived. However, things couldn’t really have gone any worse for Newcastle United fans. Although the 499 miles round trip to Luton, where you get a handful of away tickets, is no loss.

So a few bits of analysis from above.

Number of miles to go there and back from SJP to the 19 Newcastle United away games in 2024/25 Premier League – 9,425 miles

Average round trip – 496 miles

Number of round trips under 280 miles – None

Number of round trips less than 300 miles – One

Number of round trips less than 400 miles – Six

Number of round trips over 540 miles – Eleven!

Of course, this is before we factor in all the additional stuff, as Newcastle United are handed ‘helpful’ dates and times due to broadcasters moving matches…
