This one from Sky Sports is intriguing.
According to the broadcaster, this season’s Premier League record will be set by Newcastle United supporters.
Sky Sports announced…
This season, Newcastle has to travel a total of 9,425 miles to play away games in the Premier League. An all-time league record. This Saturday, they will travel to the capital for a difficult match against Chelsea.
The loss of their two shortest away journeys from the previous season, along with the addition of two very challenging locations to reach if travelling from Newcastle Upon Tyne, was not good news for Newcastle United supporters at the end of the previous year.
Southampton and Ipswich rose, while Burnley and Sheffield United fell.
Leicester was the next club to rise, although Luton was also demoted.
Naturally, it is rather ironic that Sky Sports is highlighting the record-breaking distances that Newcastle United supporters must travel in the Premier League, given that they are primarily to blame for making it even more challenging for NUFC supporters to cover all those miles. With modifications like the visit on Sunday at 2:00 p.m. to chelsea
