Its funny as feck the amount of bites you get on their board. I hardly ever go on usually cause it results in me getting banned but im definatly gona pop in more often after the fun ive had since Sunday.
Before the last derby ACS banned me 'just in case I posted anything that might result in a banning'. Beat that if you can
Even I can't claim that, lol, funny as ****. So you got banned Justin Case, What a ****ing ****er Albert is. Bet his old man is right proud. They never fail to give you a smile.
You poor man. What on earth brought you to this end of the woods?!? I work in the ****hole that is Great Yarmouth wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy mate!
You need banning you just for the sake of it.. The only guy I know that got a fish pattie thinking he was going to eat it before he did.. Kudos el Maestro.. And no, not your ****ing car..
For well over a century the people of 'The North East' have been referred to as Geordies, by the rest of the country. The term, North East can more or less be defined by going from Berwick to Middlesbrough and across to Carlisle. THEY, couldn't tell the difference from one accent to another. Most still can't. And for those narrow minded souls who find this hard to understand, so much of what we did and how we lived was interchangeable. The Mines. The Yards. Lads joined The DLI or The Fusiliers. In the other Services we tended to stick together. Local rivalry, YES we had that. But against the rest of the Country, we stuck together. It's just a personal view, but I preferred it that way. And YES I knew and sang (badly), the 'proper' words to The Blaydon Races, (Blaydon by the way was then in Co Durham), however I could also do The Lambtom Worm, (badly)
Was down on the broads mate for a week and met up with some mates in GY. Merlins all day on the drink for the footy and soccer Saturday then straight back to the boat, didn't bother with looking around to see what was there.
I was always happy to be known as a Geordie. Then along came John Hall who changed the T&C's so I handed in my membership card. I don't want to be part of the ludicrous 'Geordie Nation' with rules about who you should support etc. When I see the latest 'honorary Geordie' to be anointed, from the ranks of the latest band of foreign players at NUFC, it makes my flesh creep tbh. I refer to myself as 'Durham' these days of which I'm proud. Now the stereotypical 'Geordie', in the minds of much of the country, is a loudmouth drunken lout in a glued on replica shirt holding up one banner or another. I don't want to be associated in any way ...... 'Geordie' were once regarded as salt of the earth, fun loving resolute working people. That's no longer the case.
Regretfully I have to say you have a point. We, the pre-makem, Geordies were generally thought of as the friendliest part of The UK. Hard to understand, but the best. I once brought a mixed group I was serving with, up to Gala Day. Collectively they had enjoyed just about every famous p155 up in the World. Naturally we got split up. Only one other made it back that night to the meeting point. On Sunday morning they found their ways back to my Mams, all severely hung over. They had spent the night in various mining villages, given bed and breakfast, around the County and been ferried back in during the morning. What got to them was when they offered to pay was the only time they got a rude response. I wonder if it might be the same today.
