Kidding yourself mate. This thing clearly needs leadership and direction. Blind leading the blind tbh.

Blatant racism tbh.

I dont know, but I honestly don't think we can afford to turn a blind eye any longer.

And cocks. 49691[/snapback] I've no objection to the latter.

It's all a matter of perspective. The blinds are half closed for you my friend, whereas for me they are half open.

It baffles me that though. The fucking amoeba brains on here managed to do 400+ posts on something as trivial as racism and yet this thread, packed with real issues affecting real people, gets overlooked completely. At the end of the day people are just too scared to deal with issues as politically sensitive as this. Political correctness gone mad. PS.....this bloke who keeps opening the blinds. One of them 'darkies' is he?

Close them.

This debate will run and run.

oohhh....you better be careful, there are some on here will say you must be mistaken saying that, and call you a racist, as it's all our fault for not showing them love and understanding for not adapting our way of life in our own country rather than the other way round. I hope they didn't at any time try to impose foreign culture or attitudes on us. 49577[/snapback] Get-a-fucking-grip, love!

I can't say anything nice, so i'm saying nothing at all! 49204[/snapback] See you still haven't put yours up yet Mancy, I wonder why? 49658[/snapback] Not seen yours either, you little Byker smack-rat!

Sounds a bit gay tbh.

Bez is seething!

Thought he had a canny game tbh.

I can't say anything nice, so i'm saying nothing at all!

Seasons greetings you big shitehawk!

They're delicate flowers up there like, I tell you. Makes me ashamed to be a Northerner tbh.

Craig mate, congratulations to you and the whole family!

Looks like Alex tbh.

The David Brent "sometimes I piss-pronunciate my worms" meeting scene in the Office was brilliant Two Ronnies referencing as well.

To be honest I dont think you can honestly say what you'd be left with in that fixture if you removed the religious element. 47365[/snapback] St Mirren vs Partick probably. 47368[/snapback]

Is correct. I've also read how groups of blokes with spades and stucks would march into each other's Cities and have a pagger on a regular basis, a bit like a modern day Hooligan meet-up. Like I said it's a fascinating rivalry with so many different aspects to it and why and how it came about. People talk about the Old Firm derby, the Milan derby and the Real/Barca games but if you want a proper derby, then the Tyne-Wear really is something unique. From what I've read the football rivalry was friendly to start out with, as if both sets of people downed weapons just for the match then resumed battle after the game. Then it become a football rivalry and now it's a free for all, it's a City thing, a work thing, a family thing even (don't inter-breed man...), a people thing, a business thing, and you could maybe argue a politics thing as well with Sunderland council still smarting over the Metro and such. I know I'm biased, but it pisses all over others in my opinion. Also, and I'll be slated for this no doubt, but unless you are a Geordie/Mackem or have Geordie/Mackem blood or were brought up in this envornment from an early age, I'm sorry but the derby day for you is just another match because you'll never feel what I feel or what my Mackem counterpart will and that's not me being arrogant or boastful, it's the truth I'm afraid. You'll want to win badly more than against other sides of course, you'll share that but not that belly churning ache that sits in your stomach like a fuck off brick. And in a way, that's the way it should be because if football wasn't a regional thing, well it wouldn't be the game it is would it? 47358[/snapback] Some good points there HTT, mate. From a personal viewpoint it's nowt like the Manc derby at all. It's definitely far more fervent with completely different dynamics to the nature of the rivalry. If anything I'd say it was more like the Man utd/Liverpool fixture, only obviously with a much longer history.

He had a heart attack, knocked over a bowl of oranges and died on the kitchen floor. Only to resurface in the OC about 15 years later.

A bit like how benders hijacked the word 'queer'.

I was canny annoyed with yesterdays episode because it had hardly anything to do with Karl and Izzy (Ooooh! She's an evil cow!). 47306[/snapback] Izzy is an evil cow like. You still bliddy well would mind!
