Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 I was once on the Munich stadium tour and the guide asked me and my mates who we supported. Told him Newcastle and he went “ah, big club, big stadium” but just with a German accent. I can’t recall stopping the tour in its tracks so I could fire the beacons up and inform the rest of the Geordie Nation that a bloke in Munich thinks we’re a big club 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a tour of the San Siro recently. The tour guide asked which club I supported. I said "Newcastle" with a grin on my face. He just looked puzzled. "Kevin Keegan, Bobby Robson, Alan Shearer". He was still not getting it. "Oh ffs, Sandro Tonali, we've just played Milan in the champions league? " He was Still scoobied, and asked me whereabouts Newcastle was. I told him the NE of England. "Ahhhh" he says "Vicino Sunderland?L'argomento di Netflix? Il black cats! Jack Ross, Phil Parkinson, Simon Grayson? Il Loch Ness Drogba! Founders of Athletico Bilbao! Mamma Mia! Il Sunderland è una squadra di calcio enorme. Forza Sunderlando!!! Gutted, tbh. 20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 19825 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 It’s bizarre that they always have a match thread for our games. I don’t recall us ever having one for one of theirs 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ewerk 26351 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 That’s because most of us have no idea when they’re playing or who their opponents are. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Gloom 19825 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Just had a look through the first few pages of their match thread for our game and they’re all hammering Burn and asking why Tino isn’t starting too. Now I’m starting to question my judgement 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NJS 3978 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Wasn't Clough born in Boro? I suppose his name is Irish and he could have ancestry there but don't get the "Came from Ireland and loved Clough" connection. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played for the mackems as well as Boro, which appears to be the reason the six fingered ones granda started supporting the tramps, it’s the only way I can make sense of his ramblings. And if watching us on the telly has that effect, I’d say the simple answer is to …STOP WATCHING THEN YOU GORMLESS TWAT! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As per the name of the thread, 90% of it is just laughing at their daft threads about us. No anger, bitterness. No mention of hate, scum, smashing tellys. Just a mixture of bemusement and amusemsent. Hardly even a mention of their tragic matches unless it's their other yearly play off games. Think most wouldn't even mind if they are promoted, as we know it is a guranteed source of more amusement. Of course, they know this and it makes them even more livid. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of the laughs I get from them these days are the many highlighted posts like the one you mentioned. There's a raysun they hide their stuff and has been mentioned, it has to be embarrassment plus denying us more giggle material. Even the normal ones must see they've got some borderline Abby Normal brain donors amongst them? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayatollah Hermione 12767 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Last month, we exposed the massive gap between the two teams and, had one Joelinton not got injured, 2-0 after 46 minutes would have been a mere prelude. No amount of “hatred” can ever soften the knowledge that we played with them like a lion with a dead gazelle 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzler 5508 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Jack Clarke is the best winger in the championship, better than any current premier league winger and would be 8th in the premier league on his own. FACT. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 30414 Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 Adam Armstrong has more goals and more than twice as many assists from less appearances this season. Which puts Clarke’s absolutely incredible numbers for 2023/24 into some context 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next Chris Waddle and all that shite. You’re genuinely talking about the sort of player who’ll do very well to have a career anywhere near as good as someone like Wayne Routledge. Which isn’t a dig at either player. Just highlighting how batshit crazy a fair proportion of RTG are. 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarke against Ben White, Trippier, Walker, Reece James, TAA, Porro etc is lucky if he gets carries past the half way line 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
