I was born in gateshead
lived in gateshead all my life, felling to be accurate
2 miles away from the tyne
Now my dad was supporting sunderland in the 50's and always classed himself as a a geordie
in the 1973 cup final dvd we are referred to as the geordie team by the commentators
i now refer to myself as a mackem for football reasons only but if i supported liverpool i wouldnt call myself scouse
i think an accurate description is a geordie black cat
as the black cats was always our nickname
i dont mind being called a mackem, i live in sunderland council area now anyway but i dont call the scum geordie whatevers because not all geordies are barcodes
anyway just a thread to be ripped at as its gonna be a long summer
