The Brighton fans divvint understand man
@Sima you’ve suggested that it was only SAFC fans that weren’t sympathetic to your situation, mainly because of our lack of impartiallity living in an ‘anti NUFC bubble’. On the back of this would you consider a reassessment of that and the possibility that maybe your lot are the ones lacking objectivity?
 
No, not really just when Newcastle was mentioned, there seemed to be moans and a few jeers.... It was primarily an event held in Gatehead for all like minded people in the North East about politics but those.(the term used) over the water didn't recieve any plaudits shall we say. In fact, the mag land was only mentioned by name around three times in 2 hours
I worked in Newcastle for about 20 years. In one office, the cleaners were from Gateshead. Got cracking on to them & over time they divulge stuff. One - a bloke - had a brother. The cleaner was solid SAFC, his brother was a mag. Their Da was old school: taking them to both, on alternate Saturdays. The brothers regularly came to blows over footy.
I'm no politician but I imagine Newcastle has mopped up a lot of funding, grants etc. over the years, to the detriment of Gateshead. Similar with us really, but Gateshead may feel it more acutely given their close proximity.

‘Cut me in half and my innards will spill out’

Or I think that was the quote
Greetings, SRC. It's been a while....

I said nothing of the sort but you already know that. You’re probably referring to this

I’d say the tide has changed quite a bit in the last few months tbf from the glib ‘deluded Geordies’ mantra that has been blanket in the past. Quite a few are starting to be sympathetic to our cause.

then you’ve ran it through your filter and have come up with your summary above.
