    Used to live near Edinburgh but emigrated to Devon as a kid where I lived until I finished Uni five years ago. Lived in the West Midlands for the last four years. Me and the wife had to move to find work as there weren't any jobs in Devon when we graduated, that's how we ended up in the Midlands. Want to move back to Devon as it's the greatest county in the UK but until a couple of jobs come up there we'll stay here for now. 26 years old, I co-ordinate EU projects for a University (in other words I'm an office monkey). Quite a random reason that I started supporting Newcastle - went to the beach at Woolacombe when I was a kid and forgot to take a cap. So went to one of these beach huts and saw one that said "Newcastle United - pride of the North East" and bought that. It all started from there about 16/17 years ago.

    Yeah she was leaning towards Everton when they were rumoured to get Donovan last season (I think it was Everton) but I just kept showing her youtube videos of Shearer till she succumbed haha Im hoping to get to one of the preseason games but we are near DC so its 8/9 hours from the closest (Ohio)

    23, living in Aylesbury in bucks, trainee accountant (pending exam results though so could be a ski instructor in 6 months time instead haha)
    Grew up in south London and at the age of 5-6 everyone supported Man Utd or Liverpool, well me and a couple of my little friends at the time decided we wanted to be different so we started supporting Newcastle! It must have been around '92-93 so I guess Newcastle and Keegan were in the news a lot so that probably skewed our decision but haven't looked back since!

    We on the Not606 newcastle board appear to be a highly able bunch collectively. if we got our acts together we could form a splinter state of some kind. maybe set up HQ in the aforementioned hollow volcano OT lives in. (don't worry we'll pay you board money...)

    I'm 17, live in Jersey. i support the Toon cos i was essentially made to. I used to support Man U until i was about 6 when my cousin pinned me down and wouldn't get off until i promised i'd support Newcastle. I said i would just to get him off me and then, through learning more about the club, realised they were the team for me!

    Work as a risk analyst for a bank (it wasn't my fault honestly! - and I don't get massive bonuses), but background in accountancy, trust & company management and various other financial and civil service jobs over the years.
    Supported the Toon all my life. Converted as a toddler by my grandfather's brother and never looked back.

    Quite a few with financial backgrounds/jobs on this board! Who knew an internet football forum could be a good way to network :)

    26, financial analyst. I have lived in Surrey all my life apart from spending three years down in Plymouth while at uni. I inherited Newcastle as my team from my mum who was raised in the North East. I can't wait for the new season, Howay the Lads!

    Come on Newcastle mods, get this post deleted, is the OP allowed to use that word, demographics? Sounds rude to me like.
