paddy 17 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 fwiw i have lived in Blackburn for going on 10 years now, i'm 33, i get fucked off by people slagging the team the area the fans etc etc, no one and i mean NO ONE knows what the club means to the people, yes the ex players have an idea, well the ones worth their salt anyway, everytime i visit the city i get homesick, i'm not ashamed to say it, the people are the best, an example of this is when i popped up for a weekend with my new girlfriend, she is a manc and is a Rochdale fan, after spending one weekend in the area she fell in love with it, she loves the people "they talk to you!!" was one of her quotes, she now wants to move up!!! i get goosepimples when i get to the city, driving over the bridges sends a shiver down my spine, people without connections dont have a fucking clue about the place, i'm proud to be a Geordie and call that place home, am off to me pit now cos i'm fooked!! night all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely even you can see the irony of that Steve?? Cream myself, I don't care about the media, I just find it funny how jealous fans of other clubs get about it all. Look at us, look at us, look at us, to be fair due to the fact you seem to get more than your Everton's and Villa's many of you aren't as bad. I mean when you read an article in a national paper about Everton it's almost apologetic of the fact no one really is that bothered aboutthe club. There was a massive article about Everton in The Times today, speculating how long it would be before Moyes becomes Ferguson's number TWO, hilarious. I don't care about the media though, we're certainly not "media darlings" now, if we ever were, but there's national interest in the club even to laugh at, that's undeniable, ultimately though I don't care.

Big Onion 0 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 Just my own take but the WUMs don't bother me at all. I think they generally make fools of themselves and their drooling can be quite funny. It genuinely amuses me, for example, that someone can take the trouble of registering as 'Sending Shearer down' or whatever. Imagine how thick you have to be to believe that the success or failure of the football team you support reflects either well or badly on yourself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 To be honest I think a lot of it has to do with us being a one club city. Newcastle is a wonderful place and there is so much iconography and history in the city. When you come in on the train you know you are entering Newcastle, and you can pretty much see the ground from anywhere, it has the same majesty as Cathedrals are supposed to have - The Church deliberately built Cathedral's very high so they can be seen from everywhere in the city. I was at a gig at the sage in Gateshead, I looked out of the window across the river and up to the ground and I though ''That is fucking fantastic''. It's a bit different to one of these no mark grounds surrounded by council flats and takeaways. This as well as the unquestionable support and character of the club, the striking black and white stripes and the feel of the city all contribute. I fucking love it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom 14011 Posted May 18, 2009 Share Posted May 18, 2009 The completion of our home programme for the season means that the annual calculation of our SJP league attendance total and average can now be performed. This season, 926,244 fans officially witnessed our nineteen home games, at an average of 48,750. And while the stats below will doubtless be interpreted in some quarters as evidence of our diminishing home support, it's confirmation in our eyes of the loyalty that has been shown up to this point - despite a clear and ongoing seasonal decline in wins and goals scored. By our calculations, relegation would give us the dubious record of being the club with the largest average crowd ever to be relegated in England: Top five average home crowds for relegated sides (all from top flight): Manchester United 1973/74 42,712 Sheffield Wednesday 1950/51 41,222 Everton 1950/51 42,924 Liverpool 1953/54 40,488 mackems 2002/03 39,698 TBH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
