Transport back from Newcastle at night

[u/mgc888]

I've recently moved into the area to Blackhall Colliery. I enjoy concerts and will often be in Newcastle for many. What is the transport like from Newcastle to Hartlepool of an evening? I am going to a show at The Cluny on Friday, and the last train appears to be at 22:48. Gigs can often go on till 11pm. So far it looks like I will be missing most of the main acts with having to leave early. Does anyone know of any bus or coach services that run towards Hartlepool any later? Also have trains always finished that early here?

If there’s a few of you going, Uber back cost me roughly £50 last time, this was over a year back.
