aahhhh well, you join a forum 3 years ago, all going along nicely, then someone in New*!@)le goes out, robs a couple of post offices, mugs a few old ladies, sells the yellow vauxhall nova, with the desirable 1.0l engine and the 20p bodykit and decides to buy a proper car, then find a forum and starts to take the mick out of Sunderland footy fans.
Bless them all, dont worry your scorp will play up and then you will have a proper hobby.
 
By the way, I want a new law brought out,  
If we stop all prostitutes having babies, we wouldnt have any more Newcastle fans.
 
Still dont worry, looking at the attendences for this weeks games in Europe, I see a small town in Yorkshire had a bigger crowd than the one at St hotch potch park.
 
Back to not being the North Easts top dogs then, oh and dont worry I am a season ticket holder at or so caled Stadium of S**te, we ar crap and we know we are, but you lot are crap but think your a BIG club. Only big clubs win things, still heres to another half century of underacheiving eh.
 
Oh yes before you tell me i know we got beat by lowly Milwall, I was there.

Nick, where's Newcastle? ....... ah yes I know....it's over the Tyne Bridge and turn left after the well of despair and the twoc'd cars....that place where they are all fur coat and no knickers......Christ, I used to work in Eldon Square...wot a Sh't hole....full of students and retards...sorry Newcastle fans......I ran a stationery store and was always being robbed by the thieving kids.....infact, do not use hand signals when driving, because when you stick your arm out the window, they steal your watch.......
 
anyway back to civilation....I do not support footy more motor racing so I cannot pass judgement on teams...just cities...
 
happy motoring

Newcastle is my home town... I love the place and hate it at the same time.
Take a walk down on the Quayside at night and tell me it ain't lovely in it's own way.
The place is steeped in history .. over 900 years old in places....
My home.. my town....

I would never walk down the quayside, especially on a weekend, not my type of place.
I have worked in Newcastle for over 10 years, i know exactly what the place is like.

In all honesty Newcastle is no worse than any other big City. Same as everywhere there are places you wouldn't go alone after dark but the City itself is quite old a beautiful in parts.

Hey up, what reaction!
Only posted because I thought it was funny and most of it true really. Same old Makems still can't take a bit of banter though.
Have to say I don't live up there anymore but still get back once a week. Whats been said is true though stay out of the nuts parts and its a fantastic place and a fantastic night out, I've got loads of lads down here to vouch for that.

I cant understand this North/South thing. People are people wherever you go, some are s@*ts and some are not. I am a Southern softie and sold my last Scorp to a hard Northerner and we both got on really well. I think Vulcan will agree with me. Ps. No-one talks about the East/ West. Right got that off my chest, now going out to have a row with the foriegner next door! Grin Roll Eyes john.n
