I wasn't talking about anyone in specific, just the general tone of the thread is all.

But I get what you're saying. I've learned that sometimes it's better just to ignore the comments and let people stew in their own bile

You've said it's done that enough for me but that is a very good point.

If it fell through the mag journos would be falling over each other trying to be the fastest to write an article about it as obviously it would gain lots of attention from the mags.

Back in the dim and distant past (the 50s) 'Geordie' refered to anybody from north of the Tees and south of the Border. So all of Northumberland and Durham, including all the yackers, woolybacks and townies. This term wasn't invented by locals, it was a label used by the rest of the world to identify anyone with a 'Geordie' accent. In the days when regional accents were not mainstream, our dialect was as recognisable as Welsh or Scottish, but nobody outside the region would recognise the subtle differences between, say, Ashington, Bishop, Blaydon and Chester-le-Street.
As many have pointed out, the sea-change came with the execrable John Hall, who came up with the 'Geordie Nation' bullshit. Those days are over (I hope). They are Mags and Barcodes. WE are ALL Geordies to the rest of the world, and if the hopes and dreams expressed in this thread come to fruition, the whole world is going to know about it.

I was born in Sunderland, Co. Durham. I am not and never will be a Geordie. I have nothing against SAFC-supporting Geordies, it’s just I’m a Mackem.

Lots of us like and probably via same reasons with grandad or dad's depending on age working in the pits.

So glad I was raised a lads fan! Just wish could have enjoyed the match with them.

This bit made me laugh. From my understanding based on reading every bloody page on this thread, the poorest new investor has about 25 times the money that Stewart gas, while the richest has just under 1000 times what Stewart has. 😳😳😳😳👍🥰
