When the bids were put in for the BSOG support, Go North East Ltd AND Go Northern Ltd received different pots of money.
From what I can remember, there is a split - with Chester and other 'southern' depots being Go Northern Ltd and the remaining being Go North East Ltd.
With the 'northern' depots removing their readers, I was trying to clarify if they are the Go North East Ltd sites.
