United host Forest in round two of the competition at 7:45pm on Wednesday 23 August and tickets are now on sale priced at just £10 for adults and £5 for concessions.

Supporters who arrived to buy or collect tickets immediately before the Magpies’ recent pre-season friendly with Hellas Verona were left disappointed as predicted queues formed at collection points, meaning some fans missed kick-off.

The club is once again incentivising supporters to purchase early and avoid unnecessary delays, with prices on Wednesday once again rising to £20 for adults and £10 for concessions.

To buy tickets at the lower price before matchday, please call in at the St. James’ Park Box Office in person, visit tickets.nufc.co.uk or call 0844 372 1892 (calls cost 7p per minute plus your network access charge).

The St. James' Park Box Office will be open from 9am - 4pm this Saturday and 10am - 4pm on Sunday, while online and telephone sales are 24 hours.
