There have been matches on at those times too and other stuff not just matches. The bus companies aren't going to change their scheduling after all these years just because there is a football game on.
Some Bank Holiday services have adapted though.
How many services to the Metrocentre, have we seen expand to special timetables?
I would argue that it isn't enough.
In the time some services have changed, we have seen stadia in Newcastle and Sunderland increase their capacity and business space within the city centres adapt, morph or even change sector.
The daytime cafe's and bar culture wasn't as plentiful 10/15 years ago as it is now, yet we see a similar level of service on the buses.
