sweetleftpeg 0 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 It's a shame really, we spent a good bit of our time defending those not from the NE against the soopafans who reckoned they were not worthy to support NUFC as they weren't born within 12 yards of SJP etc...yet your sole purpose on here seems to be to widen the divide and stir the shit. I'm sorry if you've had people from up here acting like wankers towards you since you got here, but you need to chill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My sole purpose isn't to wind people up. I think the things I say get read differently than if someone else said them. I have no problem winding up the numbskulls on here, but it's not my intention to wind up the good guys. There is a different mentality on this forum which is quite stark compared with other forums. Internet attitude is a game and I know many people here would probably be quite decent if you met them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 In fairness though, all you've done is moan about and generally slag off people from up here. That's probably why people read things into your posts which aren't necessarily there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shearergol 0 Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Am I? 36599[/snapback] You seemed to be. BTW, did you see my apology? 36603[/snapback] Shouldn't assume things And yes, but it wasn't me requesting the apology. If I respected your views then your put-down would have had more effect. 36604[/snapback] Well I tried to be nice back. No need for the little rabbit punch you fucking coward. 36609[/snapback] Fucking coward? In what sense? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it was most of the people that post on here that stuck up for non-Geordie fans, including those with Southern accents and also those posting from abroad. Which is probably why your craic on here has annoyed people a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've said before I've met some great people up here, but it's well known and obvious there's an anti-southern sentiment among a lot of people in this area. It even exists on this board.

I have never been told that I'm "not a real fan" because I wasn't born in Newcastle. This board has those that don't give a fuck where you are from, we're all here because of the football club and that's as far as it goes.

He'll say it was a joke I'm sure, and I'm picking that example as it was recent, but there are more. If I object, then I'm told it's just the craic. If I say anything anti-northern, I'm told that I have a bad attitude. I can handle it, but don't pretend it ain't there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To attack at that point is cowardly as the other person is in a position of weakness. It's an abuse of trying to be decent to somebody. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You turned up with a pre-determined viewpoint and tried to superimpose it onto people on here. It doesn't fit. I'll admit there are those that have a go at Southern based fans, but I don't think you'll find them on here - they tend to be the moronic 15 year olds that are amongst the posters on other boards.

Not that I consider humility to be weakness but I take your point mate. Why don't you just stop posting such inflamatory stuff on here? That way you might get some decent craic. You may well have been trying to stimulate some debate with the threads you started today but, given your track record on here, it's hardly surprising people assumed you were fishing for some bites.
