Any good chip shops? (Asking for a friend...)It is only a matter of time before they start calling everyone racist.
Interestingly, I was just in Newcastle. I had been twice before on a night out and when passing through; but this time I got to see the city in the day time.
Some thoughts on the place: It is tiny but I think everything is small coming from London. The bridge cutting through the city is a sight to behold. The thousands of seagulls that have made it their home is amazing, if not a little dystopian. If any of you have played Bloodbourne, it sort of reminds me of that. They are much more nervous about the virus as well. Everything is about a month behind us. Very few restaurants are open although I had an incredible indian meal at a place called Simla. There are certainly parts of Newcastle that are pretty; the quayside and the areas around monument for example, but most of it is a bit of a wasteland. Again though, the geordies seemed on edge, and when they heard my accent, I could sense the fear and resentment. So, it was a strange trip but I like the place.
Funny how???!
State of these evil bastards.
Take time to listen to a Geordie talking. If you can understand what they're saying, it will be only a matter of time before they start banging on about 'The biggest this' or "the most amazing' that or 'the most incredible something'. Everything has to be the most extreme (including their football team which is the most crap football team the universe has ever seen, or is ever likely to see, with the worst owner in the solar system.)It is only a matter of time before they start calling everyone racist.

Apparently us and Liverpool were lobbying the PL to make sure it didnt go through.
Understandable if true. Us and Liverpool would have the most to lose by another state sponsored club.
...Notice Kronke don't give a fuck!
The thing that annoys me the most about Newcastle fans is that they seem to have this thought that they should be a top club, but without the history to back that up, they literally have won nothing (aside from old Second Division and Championship) in 51 years, and they royally blew their chance at the title in 1995/96.I don’t dislike Newcastle. They’ve always drawn good crowds and have had some great players over the years.
Glad they’re not becoming another souped up club jumping the queue. Hard to begrudge the success of United or Liverpool given their foundations, but Chelsea, City, or Newcastle might as well be QPR.
