Firework?

I thought that very loud bang was Newcastle's bubble bursting!

You're about 10 pages too late with that one mate ;-)

Since my post, I've read some very bad things concerning what happened. I've no problem with hunting the scum down that did this but the poster did seem to me to me to be a dencent fan

I agree, he seems very genuine, concerned and unhappy with the incident. Today though a big % of Newcastles attending fans celebrated that incident. Now i would hate to see innocent fans get attacked at St James but City fans wont forget, there will be a backlash. All because of 1 idiot and a few hundred pissed up clowns.

P.s. welcome to the forum degs.mc and unlucky today

I'm frankly embarrassed at the conduct of some of our fans. I'm an honest guy and this is not the first time our away 'support' have got themselves into trouble this year, at Darlington in pre-season some idiots decided to kick off and invade the pitch during the game, and last week at Sunderland more idiots decided to rip up seats and throw things at a reserve fixture for heaven's sake. It makes my skin crawl, and it seems the younger fans are responsible for these actions.

Regarding the events of today I don't think hundreds of our fans noticed and advocated the firework being thrown, it was more the 'crowd mentality' kicking in after they had realised something had happened. I'm not making excuses here, I'm just trying to be rational.

On the topic of the game (something I haven't mentioned yet haha) I didn't think we did too much wrong. The penalties were stonewall but avoidable, we kept the ball well in small parts of the game and looked like we could go into half-time with our goal intact. My heart says that if Ba had put his chance away at 0-0, things could have been different; but my head says that you were always going to score more goals than us.

I'm proud of the team today, we more than gave an account of ourselves today and it was a great lesson for Pardew on how to play against top sides like yourselves. We should feel confident that we could nick a result at Old Trafford, it's unlikely but then again so was our start to the season.

Welcome Degs......

My Geordie mates are here reading this with me now (all of us hungover after a good few last night in The Angel and Marble) and agree it is as Degs says, sadly a minority of dicks that are following Newcastle and giving them a bad rep more than ever nowadays.......but all clubs (including ours) have them.....the lads here want it known they were apalled at the firework being thrown and hope the cock gets what he deserves.........
The majority of Geordies are sound.....nearly as sound as us Mancs. ;-)

Typical! couldn't be bothered reading all the posts! ha ha.

Newcastle fans need a bit of excitement having to live in that shit hole. What a fucking dump. Went there on a stag do once and full of bare chested geordies fighting with each other.

Yeh, and the men are just as bad!!!

I'm surprised no one clocked him telling that fan to drink bleach.

That's pretty much the reality of it Degs (as I think Dave is saying) it's a bit like at school when someone dropped a dinner plate and everyone cheered, for all we knew some f*cker could have been having a heart attack and dropped it, but we cheered regardless.

Welcome to the board anyway bud and yes I think you're right there about the game, we seem to have a different mentality and confidence these days, your work ethic (something I've noticed all season) is second to none with some very good quality in some areas so I'm sure you'll get a result next week.

I must have missed that one...remind me again why he was let back in?

Good job their fans are shite and don't sell out away from home, would of hated having 3500 knobeads in the ground today..

Are you just clueless or are you a nobhead on the wind up?

Why would we take 6,000 fans to Blackburn on a Wednesday night in the League Cup a few weeks ago, and be incapable of selling 3,000 at Man City, have a word pal yeah? You know for a fact down all of the years and I literally mean all of them before we were born, after Man Utd and Liverpool, Newcastle have consistently had the best away support in the country despite having to travel 100 miles further than anyone else, to suggest otherwise is basically an admittance you're a ****.

Go and drink some bleach.

There you go bob.

This myth that they are loyal supporters despite the fact their ground was always half full in the 80s. I remember we went to their place and they only has 17 000 fans in the ground 3000 of them were Everton fans. What Geordies do not understand is that they only have 1 club to compete with in terms of supporters and even they are 10 miles away. There is only 1 club in Newcastle meaning everybody supports them and Sunderland have been shit for years anyway. Everton and City have to compete with Liverpool and United for supporters the 2 biggest and most successful clubs in England. Not to mention all the other clubs in the North West. Everyone outside of Sunderland in the North East supports Newcastle even people in Scotland and Yorkshire. The only reason why Newcastle have a large support is down to geography not down to to how loyal your fans are.

Very simplistic, lapped up by people who want something to put us down with but ultimately a total load of bollocks. Exeter is a one club city too and there's no one near them for 30 miles. Look at facts mate rather than myths, and believe me there are more myths about scousers than there are about geordies. Look at this mate yeah.....Newcastle average more fans than Liverpool, while Sunderland average significantly more than Everton. OK? Do you understand this bit?

The population of Merseyside is 1,365,000. The population of Tyne & Wear is 1,085,000, that's the population area of two clubs in the same connurbation who generally average over 40,000. So on average including Tranmere 32+44+6 = 82,000 people (from nearly 1.4m) on Merseyside watch football on a weekend, while in Tyne & Wear it's 37+47 which = 84,000 (from nearly 1.1m). So from a smaller population Newcastle and Sunderland get more people going to games, and per head it's far higher. This is made even worse by the fact Liverpool get an incredible amount of glory hunters from outside the area smashing your myth to pieces and exasperated even further that this area hasn't seen one trophy since 1973, so don't talk shit and play to the crowd. That's not even considering the fans you get in Cheshire, North Wales and Lancashire. The club who should genuinely have the biggest fanbase in the country are Leeds United, the city itself has a population of 800,000, Newcastle is only 260,000, and they have Wakefield nearby.

Everton fans making good posts in here - whatever next? Good post mate and so very true

Also some of the worst bother I have seen has been at St James - the FA cup game in 1977 (the first police escort I ever had in my life),a divisoon 2 game where we lost 5 or 6 nil and the cunts were still kicking the gates in to get at us.

They do have some good fans, but they also have a bigger % of dickheads than most clubs, and they are so fucking full of their own magnificience it is untrue

Funny you say that, some of the worst bother I ever saw was after a game at Maine Road in 2000. Your fans steamed the away end after the game, hitting anyone was fair game, and smashed buses up on the way back in to town

The season before Keegan came we averaged 16,989, because of a boycott to get rid of Gordon McKeag. Two seasons earlier you averaged 19,000 in a season that included a 10-1 win over Huddersfield. Our lowest ever was 90/91. Your lowest ever is 13,000 circa 1965 if I recall correctly. You'd never averaged over 40,000 till you moved to Eastlands in your entire history, we've done it something like 18 times.

Well done, youve still won fuck all!!!!!

No no no! According to the stripy inbreds, we have in fact won "fuck all".

And everybody knows how loyal and passionate the geordie's are, just look at how they "only" lost 10,000 for the season they recently got relegated.

:lol: Another myth. 49,000 - 44,000 is 10,000 is it? I can't believe a sane person would abuse an average attendance in the second tier which was bigger than ANY in your entire history in any division till you moved to COM's

Abso-fucking-lutely bang on the money.

This plus 1!!! Ask them how many of their "loyal" fucking supporters were there when Bournemouth knocked them out of the cup and they decided to invade the pitch and trash the goal posts. Newcastle fans are more fucking fickle than any set of supporters. Go when they are winning/don't when they are losing. Fucking scruffy cunts!

We've just averaged 44,000 in the Championship you stupid ****, and we went down with the highest average gate of a relegated team in world football history 49,000. It can't be jealousy because we're shite, but why do idiots like you come out with statements like that? I can't fathom it.

Oh and the crowd for the Bournemouth cup game (last game before Keegan arrived) - 26,989.<br /><br />-- Sun Nov 20, 2011 10:56 am --<br /><br />

dont come in here talking shite and then ask me to do your research for you, you lazy idle geordie scumbag. Google it and check back to the full season average the season before KK took over and you will find you averaged 12k - we have never snooped that low, despite having a "club" with 400 million fans on our doorstep; by the way despite you having a larger capacity than us, our average gate this season is actually slightly higher than your's, you thick geordie ****

It's myths like this and other myths like the ones above that make people look like dickheads. We've won more league titles than Man City, and more FA Cups so if that's fuck all, what words would you use to describe your achievements?
