I know I've complained about this before but seriously something hast to be done about the 56 on match days, its every week.
Today there was buses 24/15/31/29/20 mins late, I was on a 56 and 4/5 in a row all Said Gateshead, thats no buses for well over an hour. There needs to be two deckers or atleast single deckers parked to do active replacement to try and keep the buses on time.

Hello dear Friends
I’m back,
Just a quick note to say I cannot wait for franchising and accountability to come down on these GNE charlatans as soon as it can. Another match day, another boat load of non existent buses. Another day of fully loaded standing upstairs angels.
It’s even worse since Chester closed. Morning service reliability is horrendous
God save the featham
(07 May 2023, 9:42 pm)Ambassador Hello dear FriendsI assume that you have sent a detailed complaint to Go North East regarding these alleged failures to deliver a service - its no use complaining on here!

(07 May 2023, 10:03 pm)Ambassador I have indeed, I’ve included photos of the full top deck. On multiple occasions, as anyone who loves in low fell will attest, I even tweeted Nigel, no reply yet sadly. At least MG admitted his failings and got back to you,Big and frequent gaps on the x21 all day, too. On Sunday, that means 2 hours without a service. Was glad I checked the app while waiting for the 12:33 from Eldon Square. We were fine with the 21 but those travelling beyond had to buy another ticket for an arriva service.
just left Eldon square. No angel for an hour, tip top service,
