Geordies v mags


People from all over the country go to mags games and sing about being Geordies. To most its simply a case of calling Newcastle fans Geordies and Sunderland fans Mackems in order to disguish who they are on about.
 
Can we all start referring to the unwashed as mags.
There is a massive amount of Geordies support Sunderland and it annoys me when people on here refer to the mags as Geordies.

Piss off they have just as many from the wear supporting them n they don’t cry when mags shout anti mackem stuff. Sensitive things you Geordies mind nee wonder they get shite. Why would a sunderland person stop being anti Geordie

Agreed, I'm a Geordie SAFC fan. Dickheads in the SWC behind me singing "Die die Geordies f**king die, singing die, die geordies f**king die" every game is just brainless really.

Absolute **** chant that. One of the worst chants going and I'd happily watch them getting brayed for it aswell.

Should never ever wish anyone death especially when it is a chunk of our support, me included aswell.
 
The so called geordie in here need to realise that when we slag Geordies off we’re slagging Newcastle off. Yous can class yourselves as whatever but a lot of us don’t class shields he run jarrow as being Geordies. Geordies are north of the Tyne that’s it

wrong and you are alienating a very large number of our support by calling Geordies. Our Geordie supporters from Hebburn, Jarrow, Gateshead and Shields probably lived closer to Roker Park than these, so called, new age Mackems. Washington!?

Maybe some of us live North of the Tyne...? Also people from South Shields regard thereselves as sand dancers rather than Geordies anyway.

Also who is 'us'? Do all the pit yackers, never mind Geordies and elsewhere have to get 'your' permission to support the club now.
 
Lads from Sunderland, Shields and Washington who support the Mags call themselves Geordies. Just the way it is when it comes to football.

Whether you like it or not there'll always be anti Geordie songs coming from our support (meaning Newcastle fans/players).

So who’s the Geordies that support us? We will have a few north of the Tyne no doubt but sunderland is a mackem club not a Geordie club n the way some people on here go on it’s as if they want us to be pro geordie about everything which is just never gonna happen. I’m saying most of us in sunderland don’t refer to them places as geordie what a you on about asking permission for what ya wolly. Wonder if the lads from Houghton n penshaw get offended over smb like you do when a mag gets called a geordie. Suppose you’re going to complain to sky n the rest of the country that refer to them as Geordies and not mags aswell?

I agree with most of that. I'm from Shields and I'm a Geordie and a Sandancer

Where you from then? Says King's Lynn and your profile name suggests Washington.

Sunderland is County Durham's club. Might want to check a map where County Durham used to be.

Most people from places like Houghton probably don't see thereselves as a Mackem at all, it's never been part of Sunderland until 1974 when someone decided it was.

I go off the old Scott Dobson definition. A Geordie is someone born within a mile of either bank of the Tyne, from the mouth as far west as Wylam.

Mackem, didn't exist 40-50 years ago. You have fallen into the John Hall trap of assuming every Geordie supports Newcastle, when a vast amount of our support are Geordies and always have been, long before the "Mackem" term was used in the yards as a derogatory term.
Not forgetting the none "Mackems" from the Durham villages.

I've got nowt against mags or geordies unless it's either derby day, they get to a cup final, or they qualify for europe.

It's just banter otherwise. I even took a mag to a derby at the SOL few years back bc he'd never been to one, had him sit there in silence shitting himself. I grew up in shields surrounded by the buggers. Only a true imbecile hates "all" mags.
