Bridge of Sighs after yet another defeat.

But if you’re walking in the opposite direction, towards the Stadium, it’s called the Bridge of Blind Hope.

Don't even start me on that f***ing bridge. I sit in the north stand, and I live south of the river. Was talking to my bairn about how good it'll be when the bridge is up and running because it'll make our walk to the ground much shorter. Which it will, but I was saying we'd just walk straight across the bridge and into the stand. It's because
I was thinking we'd head north over the bridge, so it must be linked to the north. It was only after I told him this that I realised if you head north over a bridge it'll be to the south side of the north bit so we'd have to walk around the ground. I wasn't even pissed at that point. I don't think compasses are my strong point

Looks like it's open to discussion and suggestions

The Wearmouth Way or The Wearside Walk, or some mix of the 2

Yes, it will certainly be able to be illuminated different colours. Whether they do every night is another thing.

It’ll be done every night for a while, then bulbs will start going and it’ll look naff.

Great news.

It must be one of the biggest pedestrian bridges in the UK in terms of span and width.

Exciting times.

Anyone know the proposed opening date ? Must be close now, they said 'summer 2025' and I'm sure someone said they are aiming to have it open for the first game of next season, so maybe July for the grand opening?

I think that they are aiming for the ladies rugby World Cup but I've seen August mentioned

Has that happened with the Northern Spire?
