Whats with Newcastle fans?

[jimharri]

Cheeky bastards have banned me, lol.

I wonder why?

 

[Brucie Bonus]

I'm not really surprised. I hope them and Sunderland stay up. Proper northerners imo. Bit mad, but so are we.

 

[Citytillidie69]

I'd love them to stay up if they could guarantee Fat Sam & Blackburn going down instead.

^^^this^^^^.........................as its either/Or for me

This apparent hostility and piss-taking of Newcastle from some sections of our support baffles me.

So what if they're in the shit but still believe they're a "big club," due to the number of fans turning up?
We were exactly the same when we were yoyoing in the 80's and 90's ffs!!!
Isn't that what the rags took the piss out of us for?
They are serial under-achievers,the same as us-only we've been lucky enough in the past year to be in the right club in the right place at the right time.
Had it not been for the good Sheik,that could well have been us waiting to drop down to the second tier yet again and relying on other clubs buying our best young players to survive.

Stop sounding like rags,ffs.

Nope.

The proof of this will be in how many will actually turn up when they are in the old second division.

Its easy to watch a premiership team when you are the only football team in that City.

But that isn't the only reason most of us can't stand them RB - I posted the following on another thread last week. Hopefully this will give you more of an insight into why I and many others are so unimpressed about the aura surrounding Newcastle and their so-called amazing fans. And as for sounding like Rags, give over lol:

Why is it that some people think certain clubs have a history and other clubs don't? Every club in the country has its own unique history - just because that history might not involve winning shit-loads of trophies doesn't mean a club doesn't have a friggin' history ffs. And if we are measuring history in terms of trophies won then Newcastle have gone even longer than us without winning one so why does that make them more worthy of a place in the Premiership than many other clubs? At the end of the day, all teams are where they are on merit. And just because they have a large following, it doesn't give them a divine right to be in the league as we have found out to our own cost in the past. We may have averaged 28,000 in Division 2 but that alone doesn't give a team the right to beat all the other smaller supported clubs in the division - that season I seem to remember us losing to York and Lincoln, and Wycombe did the double over us. All those clubs beat us on merit because they were the better team on the day and fair play to them.

As for Newcastle, to be honest I want to see them go down. And that view has nothing to do with arrogance surrounding our new-found wealth. Their fans are amongst the most deluded on the planet - they think that painting their garage door black and white makes them more of a fan than supporters of other clubs which is complete and utter bollocks. Where the fuck were they all during the 1990-1991 season when they got 10,004 for a home game against Oxford? Where the fuck were they all for the first few months of the 1991-1992 season when Ardiles was manager and they were struggling near the foot of the old division 2? Fair enough, if a club isn't doing so well then attendances will invariably drop and if they are doing well then attendances will rise, but seeing their crowds practically double overnight when KK came in as manager is fucking embarrassing.

It makes me laugh when you hear the media bang on about how Newcastle are the second club for so many fans - to be honest, I don't know anyone who holds that view and every football fan I know hopes to fuck they go down. We never got any sympathy during our dark days and to be honest I never wanted any so why the hell I should feel sorry for those deluded barcode bastards I don't know. But if I was to feel sorry for a club, I felt a shit-load more sympathy for Norwich last night - a club that has been playing to capacity crowds week in, week out, for years and with fans that are every bit as passionate about their club as Newcastle's are, not to mention the fact that Norwich's fans are a damn sight more pleasant into the bargain.

This. They're a one-club city ffs. Not only that, they don't have The World's Biggest Club (TM) on their doorstep, unlike us.

Don't talk to me about clubs on doorsteps lol .

As for the Maggies , I sympathise with the fans , but the club are clueless , and the way they treat highly respected managers is a disgrace .
Out of all the sides in the Prem , it is they that deserve to go down .
Not the fans .... the club .
When and if they bounce back , they might do things with a bit more class .

As for Barton , he is nothing but a thug .

As for going on the Mags forum , and getting a bit of grief , then what do you expect .
In comparison though , it's a fairly polite bit of grief .
Certainly nothing like we were faced with when we first started chatting on this forum :o)

 

[Robanompivenov]

I dont sympathise with the fans at all! They have a self righteous attitude where they think they have this divine right for success! They can fuck off....just because they get 57,000 people watching them every week doesn't mean they are a big club! It means they are a well supported club! What history do they have? Why do they deserve success? They are nearly as bad as Spurs fans for it! I hope they go down and do a Leeds, I'd piss myself laughing!

End of the day I'd rather be playing the Geordies twice a year then teams like Wigan and Boro. I want them to stay up, their fans are alright.
