    Everywhere I've been I've seen a Man U fan. A part from last year when I visited a mate in Manchester.

    I Live in South Africa and there is a big Indian community near Durban called Phoenix. There is a HUGE toon community there and actually a Newcastle fan bar where they all go to watch the games in their strips!
    Its like being back in the toon pubs on matchdays, seriously, and those boys can give some stick too......madness

    Bunch of expats moved over to Budapest..

    They've been there for 5 year or so, and have already infiltrated the Hungarians.

    They've got a bar which shows EVERY toon game, and one've the Hungarian blokes has actually developed a Geordie twang!

    I'm from the South of France and live on the countryside. A couple of years ago I was on my bike (that's how you move about around ere hehe) riding through the extremely quiet center of my village and all of a sudden I catch a glimpse of "one" of the old farmers wearing a black and white striped top. I pull over to go and do some stalking (quiet countryside = boredooooom) and there he was covered in mud wearing the Brown Ale kit! I got cleared off the scene by the very grumpy frenchman moments after....

    I used to live in cape town and used to watch every game down the local sports bar which was themed half Newcastle and half Liverpool because of the owners, so there were alot of us that used to meet there. Also saw a load in a bar in kuala lumpur once!

    Met some in every country I've been too - Marseille in France being where I saw the most though. It was a 50/50 mix of local fans & ex-pats and they even had a NUFC memorabilia & replica kit section of a sports store, it was surreal!
    Quite a few down here in Leeds knocking about as well as those I've been slowly converting who would never normally follow football :)

    I've persuaded them to make the trip up a few times to watch a match or two and got them to watch others at the pub so I'd say its slowly working!

    My family and i go regularly to this awesome country and there is a lot of Newcastle fans, sadly Man Utd aswell.

    We stuck a newcasstle badge to our taxi drivers car we have used for years. He seemed to like it. just not his kids constantly stealing all his Newcastle stripes wed given him

    Have worked in several Countries in Central & Eastern Europe and have always managed to find a Toon fan to watch a match with, including St Petersburg, Moscow, Prague, Tashkent, Almaty & Zagreb, strange though I am in a City called Ufa!!!! da its a real name in Central Russia and not seen any Toon fans in last 18 months, although in the Bar in the 10 pin bowling alley I have persuaded them to hang a Toon flag!!! So who knows in years to come there will be an Ufa Toon Supporters club, I doubt it though lol
