There are some differences though imo. Geordies tend to be excessively proud, boistrous, loud, optimistic people. Certainly when it comes to football. In the main we are only focussed on our team. Mackems tend to be miserablist pessimists, for good reason maybe. But many are undoubtedly obsessed with Newcastle more than their own team as a result and, imo completely unlike us, have a massive chip on their shoulders about it. Not just the club, the city, the people, our reputation, the industry, local governance, guitarists from Blyth and North Shields, literally everything. We do not go on like that. Their motto is about us - FTM. They use it everywhere. Our "motto" about them actually just relects their obsession. You also don't see it much. SMB. Other than that, as alluded to earlier, Newcastle is medieval destination tourist city. It's the endless subject of travelogues. Sunderland isn't and never will be. But many of them can't accept that. in fairness I did think the toy dolls nellie the elephant was one the worst records ever made. wasn't that keen really on the eurythmics either, although I didn't mind annie lennox.

I liked the Toy Dolls, when I was 12. That John Kettley is a weatherman novelty song, the same. Lauren Laverne is welcome to share my bed and I'd let George Clarke give me architectural advice. Oh and I recognise Wearside Jack as perpetrating the sickest hoax in history. Well done my fans of massive lads. Mind, Sunderland does roll out the red carpet to Tommy Robinson and loves a bit of hate riots. Have I missed anything out? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21391 Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 There's a canny funny thread on the SMB about their flag display at the moment. Apparently they can't do one for the opening day because the organisers were too busy watching the Euros and Olympics. This has triggered the usual infighting, before the resident brain donor Keith, representative of the SMB, admits he'd rather stay in the pub anyway than actually help create a atmosphere to help their team. Anyhow, that would be mag like behaviour anyway I guess. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked the angelic upstarts and thought mensi was a cracking front man. he was also a massive fan of lads although I'm pretty sure he was actually a sand dancer. I suppose they can't really take any credit for this on the latter technicality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebrokendoll 9146 Posted August 20 Share Posted August 20 here's our mate keith waxing lyrical about his admiration for albert pierrepoint who executed up to 600 people in a 25 year career as a hangman ending in 1956. odd that he'd have such an aversion to murdering camel humpers, when really he should have nothing but admiration for a swift swish of the sulthan sword.... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 21391 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 (edited) But why would Clarke want to join a premier league club when he can have champagne football and wistfully watch the river where they built the boarts roll out of the city on the sea?

Lots of mackem talk on twatter about that. Evidently because of the sell on fee they reckon unless someone pays £25-£30 Mill they should be told to fuck off. The fact that the player is only worth£15 Mill escapes them, it appears they think the buying club should pay the player value PLUS compensate/cover them for the sell on fee. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness, that's exactly what Palace are expecting us to do with Guehi, and what we had to do with Livramento too. Even still that only takes the transfer up to a maximum of circa £20m (which is far too much - Jarrod Bowen he is not) 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renton 21391 Posted August 22 Share Posted August 22 It is canny amusing amusing - and absolutely killing them - that one of our squad players Elliot Anderson is worth more than double their blue chip (pop) player. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
