I've softened a little when it comes to the Geordies.
For years and years I've hated them for their delusions of grandeur and their delusions regardign their club being somehow different to other clubs and their passion being somehow greater than the passion other fans hold for their clubs.
I still hate this aspect of them and when I hear them singing "Where were you when you were shit!?" to us this season (as they will with more fervour than ever because they will now think they are untouchable as 'loyal' fans) the rage will burn as it always does but.......I've missed them, I really have.
You're right Pidge, everyone's here on merit but the away games always guarantee a good day out and our home games will always have extra spice and a full away allocation. Some of the away followings at our place this seaon have been pitiful.
So, welcome back you deluded fat fuckers. Tell Joey we're expecting him.
