When someone tells me they support Man Utd and they are from the Midlands, London etc... I immediately stop listening to what they are saying.
Nah, the OP is a friend of mine though
Top, top chap anarl
So he reckons his parents were evacuated from presumably rural Oxfordshire, then placed in a City that had its own blitz?I know a lad who has lived in the Oxford area all his life who supports Man U because his parents were evacuated to Manchester for three months during the war in 1941!
And I always love the “I’ve supported them my whole life” to try and justify it.
They’ve been winning pretty much their whole lives.
There’s a lad I know from Newcastle (cramlington actually) but he support Liverpool. Unless the mags are doing well then he’s a “proud Geordie” they’re the worst kind.... them and Durham mags

They tell you some fanciful story about an uncle who took them to Old Trafford.
Forgetting to tell you that their parents were Villa daft.
Nowt wrong with the Mags in general, my best marra and his old man are both black and whites and are like family.
That said nowt worse than post Keegan, Durham Mags. Perma chip on shoulder and always looking for another scout badge to prove how "Toon" they really are.
Direct answer to the op, Mags all day long.
That’s not what we criticise them for.Not really can’t understand criticism of Newcastle fans for simply supporting the club that has been part of their upbringing and local area.
My dad (83 yo) was through my brothers house in Gosforth last week in and he had his SAFC jacket on. He was waiting to turn right and a mag with his whole family in the car slowed down and wound his window down, gestured for my dad to do the same then proceeded to abuse him verbally. I live in Whitley Bay and regularly get comments from mag strangers when I’ve got anything SAFC related on. I criticise Mags not because they support their home town club but because my experience of most of them is that, when it comes to SAFC, they are all utter dickheads.Not really can’t understand criticism of Newcastle fans for simply supporting the club that has been part of their upbringing and local area.
So what is the difference between this and say a Sunderland supporter with a cockney or midlands accent? Nothing wrong with being a second generation supporter or following a club with no geographical link. We’ve had Irish fans due to Charlie Hurley / Niall Quinn / Roy Keane etc. What’s the problem?
This is just getting silly now.
