What a poor decision
Whilst I might agree that Leeds and Elland Road in particular is a poor choice, from a 'preaching to the converted' POV I was getting a bit bored with Newcastle and it was becoming a bit of a chore and 'old hat IMO.
I was ready for somewhere new Nottingham Leicester Birmingham Coventry Sheffield Bristol
Newcastle is not the metropolis that it likes to think it is and there's not great connectivity by train (to/from MCR in my case) depending when your game was scheduled. Before I get pulled up I understand that towns on my alternative list might not be as big or easier to get to than Newcastle, it was the year on year and accommodation pricing that was starting to grind my gears.
