Dunno Smug, most of our fans (if not all of them) would prefer the Glazer's not to be in charge of United. I'd expect us to have more idiots than any other club by fan base alone but something seems disproportionate up there. Like I say I've never had trouble from Newcastle fans so I can't really speak from personal experience, it's just what gets into the mainstream media, seems like they are a busy lot. I guess there'd be an element of shame from us if we did something similar, we aren't a one club city so we wouldn't want to hang our dirty washing out in the streets for City fans to laugh at us, I guess Newcastle don't have this issue.

I haven't watched many of them, just couple a few months ago so maybe he's reined it in a bit now but he was a mental nutter. I'm sure I saw him kick over his pot noodle in anger on one of them! If you look how many views his videos get he's obviously got a decent fan base, if the fans are going to base their feelings on what a couple of nutters are saying then they will end up on the tele being laughed at.
One of their main problems mate, which you may not realise, is that their 'ex-Supremo' invented the 'Geordie Nation' bandwagon which was jumped on by a surprising number of them.
They really do live in a self serving bubble where they believe their own ****e.
Despite not winning a current major trophy for half a century they believe they're up there with the best .......... if delusion made you a big club they'd be Barcelona.
brilliant and most likely true.
