Most Newcastle fans like most others are neutral when it comes to interest in other clubs. I watched them play way back at the Leazes Road open end before they expanded it to become all seater.I find Newcastle fans in general to be some of the worst towards us. They hated the rags but seem bitter towards our success. I see loads of posts about how we were a small club before the takeover and how big they are....they should go and look back on average attendances because they'll see how much bigger we are than they think. And considering we had another club outside the city winning the lot and they're a one club city it's even more impressive. They're all loving GNIAC's comments on PSR without realising that he's named Newcastle to try and protect himself, but all he cares about is the rags being successful and he's only whingeing because he wants the rags to be able to spend what they want.
Half a league, half a league, half a league onward. ;-)how 'bout the Charge of the light brigade?...

Fair call pal and a reasonable post , the fact is most of us have been throughout dark days and will continue. We’re totally fed up with this 115 charges bollox . It’s getting very boring now. No one knows including us what all these so called charges are. We’ve pissed on the top table and that’s where we are on this. Couldn’t give a fook no more we’re having our day in the sun and if it gets cloudy the sun will shine on us again.Newcastle fan here.
From my point of view a lot of Newcastle fans have respect for original Man City fans.
From my own point of view, I take my hat off to you guys. You lived in a city where your next door neighbours were winking everything with all the big names. At some points you were you were in the 3rd tier getting good crowds. It could have been easy for some of your fans to have been Man Utd fans. You are also fairly close to Liverpool, so when they and Everton were winning things, that could have been an option as well.
For those of you who were there before the money, hats off to you. No respect those who tagged along for the success though.
A big shout out to your fans when I takeover was first rumoured. Your fans going out of their way to warn ours about how the media will treat us, wanting the competition etc. One of your podcasters even had the chairman of our supporters trust on his YouTube channel asking our view on it.
From a selfish point of view we want you to rip the Premier League apart in your court cases.
From the same point of view, until we are ready to compete with you for the trophies, we’re by and large very happy for you to keep the trophies away from Liverpool, and Arsenal, although you could have done us a favour in the FA Cup final last season.

The Georgies haven't won the league since 1909... the cup since 1955... and never won the Carabo...EVER !!Most Newcastle fans like most others are neutral when it comes to interest in other clubs. I watched them play way back at the Leazes Road open end before they expanded it to become all seater.
The problem is the social media fans who encourage the keyboard warriors seeking clicks. The real problem facing Newcastle for growth is its location, population and travel links plus the branding of Newcastle.
And yet they still get 50'000 every week! I remember them getting something like 10'000 for a midweek game around 92 before KK took over and crowds were shite for a few years either side of that. But you can't judge a club by a few seasons in the 80s and early 90s when football was on its arse in general. We had our 8000 gates in 64 and that doesn't define our fanbase. I'll admit it helps them that it's a one club town and it's got a great catchment area where there's only a few clubs to choose, so maybe their crowds should be what they are. But in general through football they have been a very well supported club. I've got nothing against them and had to take my hat off to them for the way they treated us after the 2012 game when afterwards we went to town. Not one bad word all night(and remember we'd just stopped them getting CL football)congratulations, one even got us a bottle of champagne. So on the whole they're a good set of fans. And to say Wednesday (who I've got a lot of time for btw) are bigger is utter nonsense pal.The Georgies haven't won the league since 1909... the cup since 1955... and never won the Carabo...EVER !!
They've spent yonks in the '2nd' division when their gates dropped to 13000 k and Charlton was hounded out.
Some of their fans who are divorced from the hysteria respect our loyalty and self deprecating humour.
Many of the others are just stupidly beyond help, deluded and pug ugly.
They have no idea or interest that behind the scenes we've b even trying to help them.
No wonder the mines & shipbuilding have gone down but drugsl and alcohol abuse has increased.
Sheffield Wednesday are basically a bigger club, but the boat has sailed for them too due to the red yank cartel/ PL.
Yeh and I did a quick survey and I tell u we have 6 billion fans worldwide…….. :-)They all love us don’t they? Most popular fans in the country apart from their own, and after all, City are everyone else’s second favourite team.
