Why not just do it when its heading to newcaslte then they don't really need to waist time putting their code in, another thing is changing drivers going to Newcastle imo is better from a passenger perspective rather than waiting for two 21's then they just say Gateshead on the Display seems a bit pointless. Same for the 20, they now change drivers at Stand L, whereas if they changed from Stand E?, they could just but their code in when in Park Lane, instead of the driver having to put his code in for the 5 min journey between Stand E & Stand L.
You realise drivers would have to log in to Ticketer northbound too, don't you?
People may want to catch the bus at Gateshead, so they'll need to be logged in for that alone. Aside from that, important messages are often communicated on Ticketer which could be essential to read ahead of that section of the journey. It's really not a long process to log into Ticketer, and if a driver is slow at it they're not going to get quicker on the other side of the road.
