What happened in the intervening 27 years?

Are you saying nothing has improved in the north east in all that time?

eh? i mean the last 13.
In total since 1979, 31 years of Tory govt allied to 13 of Labour.
Labour tried to improve things a bit, but didn't do great, tories didn't even bother.
I'm not saying it, thinktanks are saying it.
The PPR published a paper in March that said if the North were one of the 38 OECD countries, it would rank second bottom for investment, only Greece would be worse.

What are Huddersfield and Rotherham like for away fan pubs?
Need to get my ‘here be dragons’ head back on, hardly been north for a game in years.

Loads of great pubs in Huddersfield, two at the train station for starters.

Cutlers Arms in Rotherham is great and near to the ground. I’m sure they’ll allow away fans.

Or the Bridge Inn just down from the station and next to the river (hence the name).

I’d probably head for The Cutlers though.

The Rhinoceros was the town centre ‘spoons but is now closed. The 2 other ‘spoons are the Church House and The Bluecoat both decent establishments.

Fish and chips at Seahouses and then a boat trip to the Farne islands to see the Puffins is highly recommended!

Was in John o’Groats youth hostel a few years ago (ahem!) when a chap comes in and asks if we would like to go and see the puffins.
‘Do they do late sixties covers’ asks my mate.
Exit one disgruntled twitcher/rambler.
 
Contrary to the popular myth that all ‘Spoons are shitholes I have been in both and can verify their suitability. The Rhinoceros however is no great loss!

Spoons in Scarborough is like the soup kitchen at a Night Shelter!! Looked like half the beggers and crackheads within the North of England had decamped there for the summer.
On the other hand The White House Scraptoft is the dogs !!
