Geordies v mags


My two were born in the RVI. I've no other connections to the North East in general (other than uni). But am I heck as like, voluntarily taking my lad to SJP, given their ownership. Got season tickets for us both and he's Sunderland mad.

Out at the coast we're about 9 miles from SJP and 13 from the SoL. If there's no game on, it's 25 mins drive to either ground so makes no difference. That chap on TheMag who likes to constantly remind everyone he's from North Shields, must have missed Geography at school, as North Shields isn't Newcastle.

The North East is a huge area with disproportionately few league clubs (in comparison to the North West, as an example). Can't just say that everyone North of the Tyne should support Newcastle.
 
Your a mag geordie. Unlucky Chucky ..... Ahhhh bisto. Wash your top your scruffy bastard
No gravy stains on me mate FTM
Quite agree. Where the line begins and ends is unclear though. When a Geordie wears a mag top is he or she still a Geordie or are they a mag? When a Mackem wears a lads top are they similarly a Mackem or are they now a lads fan? And what if they are from South Shields? Are they a Geordie or are they a mag? I get along well with one who comes in on Saturday night. We talk quite openly about the fortunes of each other’s clubs.

I still remember the night of the McFly concert and loved every minute of the entire night. Even when we were travelling to Newcastle to the Wetherspoons opposite. Not once did I feel threatened or in fear because I support Sunderland.
The distinction is they put on a mag top, they are mags

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).
There didn't used to be
 
Correct. Always call them Newcastle fans or Mags
This...if u call mags Geordies then you've been succumbed by John Hall and his Geordie Nation shite

I know of a mag from Spennymoor that refers to himself as a "Southern Geordie" 😂

Also that lass from Bishop Auckland off gogglebox, who probably sounds more Makem than an actual Makem, taking the piss out of Makems 🤦‍♂️
I'm a makem she's sounds like someone from southern Durham f**k all like I sound
 
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.
Proud Geordie and proud Sunderland supporter FTM
To me they should be referred to as the saudis. They have totally lost their identity nowadays since becoming playthings of a murderous state
 
I thought all Geordies support Newcastle :rolleyes: There’s some Geordie expats down my end, with a group of them supporting Chelsea(old school Chelsea fans) and one of them supports United. How does a Geordie go on to support Sunderland? Especially if they are from the Newcastle city boundaries.

No mate they don't it's a bit complicated to explain I've tried down here in the south to explain the geography but given up can't be f****d anymore hope this helps
