Pardew was pretty good about us to be fair to him. He then went on to spout his pessimistic, uninspiring nonsense which would more than likely see his team relegated if it wasn't for there being so much s*** in the league. That being said...probable results today; Chelsea 4-0 Newcastle Palace 1-0 Spurs "Pardew is mint" "Mags are mugs" etc.

"The Geordies were fantastic to me." Alan Pardew = Hero.

You been keeping a cech on it? Not sure it will matic much myself. Your craic is f***ing Terryble. The pair of you. How much would it Costa me to get you both banned?

i put 5 nil but i got everyone wdong last week. Now i am up and ready for the match my usual matchday confidence haz kicked in anx i yhink we'll win 2 nil and cisse will score a pearler!!!! Htfl. Haha...aye it'll be around half 12 whwn I put my usual daft bets on that Ayoze 1-0 at 250-1 is definitely worth a tenner on because it's a dead cert. Haha!

Super six prediction... 4-0 Chelski

I got one nomination in total <3 it made my evening.

I think Mr Evans should join Jedward and they should become Chedward. Then all 3 can morph into a Tyranacuntus Rex.

It must have been said dozens of times in here but music when people score...

Voted! Even though I was clueless...

Currently I cannot bare to read about anything other than this cunt and opinions on him. Simply to help fuel an anger within myself rather than apathy. It needs to stop though because I need to find a job... God I hate myself.

Our away fans should all turn up with stretchers at Chelsea. Or as fancy dress doctors / physios...

Harry Redknapp might be available soon...

A List? He's better than that he's AP list man

Pardew 1-0 Deluded NUFC Supporters

Think some more constructive or explanatory chants need to come to the fore like. I quite like the "We don't care about Ashley" one. It's at least got a bit more to it. Don't blame fans for singing that today like. God help the sell out crowd at Chelsea when we get humped.

Who you calling tubby like? I'll put your bait up anytime you skinny t***! Nowt wrong with enjoying your scran mate. Nowt at all. Working on it mesel...

Calm doon tubby.

Him being from London has got NOTHING to do with it. I dunno how many times it has to brought up with you in particular, you just don't get it like. I do get it. Completely. It just doesn't f***ing matter like you seem to think it does. It matters from a public perception perspective. We'll always be seen as being unjustly harsh on people just because they're from Larndarn. It's not the end of the world, it's just another stick to beat us with, and another way for everyone to bang on about how unrealistic we are. I don't really give a s*** if Londoners think we hate London. We know we don't. Anyone with any sense knows we don't. If they think we do well tough s*** - more fool them for making a stereotype. Well you should give a s***, it puts us in a bad light and gives everyone another stick to beat us with. Just because other fans sing it to opposition players doesn't make it fine, we're doing it to our own owner as if 'cockney' is a derogatory term, if you think that's fine then that's fair enough, but you're a bit naive if you think that other people outside of the club don't believe the same (including players and managers and staff that we might want as some point) Why should I give a s*** if Southerners think that I, as a Geordie, hate them all on the basis of one song against one Southern c***? Even if they do make that assumption - more fool them. Their narrow-mindedness will be far worse than mine for singing that about one person. Quite frankly even if people don't like it when I'm abusive about one of their "own" then that's tough s***. I wouldn't be abusive if he wasn't a c***. Which he clearly is. If the shoe was on the other foot I'd totally expect Southerners to call their owner a Geordie c***, and I wouldn't think they hated all of us for that reason. You should give a s*** because for the last 4 years we've had a manager that was excused by the media, fans, pundits and possibly our own owner from being totally s*** because they assumed we didn't like him for being Southern. It's one of the reasons that he got away with being s*** for so long. And it's not their narrow-mindedness if you're calling someone a cockney ffs. It's yours. If someone called me a thick geordie c***, or any other slur I wouldn't think that it was my own narrow-mindedness for not realising that it was some sort of delightful banter, I'd think they were an ignorant dick, the same is true the other way around. Basically it blurs and undermines any real message from getting through because it's easy to look at it and think that people dislike them because of where they're from and I'm f***ing sick to back teeth of having to explain this to people who wonder why the media talk s*** about us on a regular basis and everything feeds into itself and nothing ever gets better. That bit is just utter s****. Sorry like, it just is. He was excused through his football friends in the media and generally lazy journalism and reporting. We had Hughton who was absolutely loved before him. You're totally missing my point. I'm not saying us singing that isn't narrow-minded. I'm saying them assuming all Geordies hate all Southerners from that one chant is even more narrow-minded. Pardew hardly ever got any grief for being a Cockney. He got grief for being a lying, inept, deceitful c***. Ashley however, is a different matter. It's not a particularly thoughtful chant, but then how many are? If you want them to be bellowed out then they need to be simple so that the masses can get involved. The North-East is one of the poorest regions in Britain so inevitably there will be some discontent towards London anyway. That's not to say it's right, but it probably contributes. He is a fat, rich, London t***. Therefore, if he is called a Cockney so be it. Regardless of how accurate it is. Frustrating it may be but surely the fat and b****** are the offensive parts. The poor reporting is the issue, the disregard for the actual facts. People know about the politics surrounding the local papers and the club so the rest get brandished Southern papers. Which probably isn't far from the truth. I just think this whole debate goes further than football. It's all about people's ideas about what is and isn't offensive and what is / isn't politically correct. I assume those of you kicking up a fuss about "cockney" probably have stronger links than most to the London area? Either that or totally left wing. Well it's not s*** at all, it's everywhere you look/looked. Just today alone that was Paul Merson and Phil Thompsons assertion on us, that we won't accept a southerner, or a non-geordie. If you can't see that putting a word in between 'fat' and 'b******' is meant to be seen as offensive then I dunno what to say to you, you're either being naive or you're talking s***. And yes, I know we loved Hughton, I make that point constantly and I've spent a great deal of time arguing against this idea that we don't like people from the south, only for our fans to use the word cockney as a slur. It's not at all narrow minded to hear 'you fat cockney b******' and think 'they don't like cockneys'..not even in the slightest bit narrow-minded. If you don't have a problem with cockneys, don't use it as part of an insult. As has been brought up elsewhere, you wouldn't say 'you fat black b******' and suggest that it's narrow minded for people to think that it means you don't like black people, of course it means that. Both have nothing to do with it. See, why are you saying that he's a fat, rich, london t***, it's so f***ing embarrassing man. The North East being poor has NOTHING to do with it, it's about people being thick and hypocritical. Oh, don't tell us that we wanted Pardew out because he's a cockney, we loved Hughton and Lee and Ferdinand...YOU FAT COCKNEY b******, GET OUT OF OUR CLUB...we don't hate Cockneys man, what are you on about!? It's so undermining. As for the last paragraph, hang your head in shame mate. FWIW, I don't, I'm just a f***ing human being and don't give a s*** where people come from. I don't give a s*** where people come from. I just don't see why people see it as any more offensive than being called, tall, short, fat, thin, blonde or ginger but that all seems to not matter. When it comes to region or race it gets blown out of proportion and this whole Cockney rant is a fine example of that. It seems history only matters when it suits certain people or groups of people. Cannot be arsed to debate this with you - we obviously aren't changing each others opinions at all. So I'm leaving it at that. As mentioned in my previous post, that's not to say I advocate racism or owt like that, I just draw the PC line a little bit differently to you. The difference being that regional differences, beit locally, nationally or internationally are a real thing, as are issues with race, gender, sexual preference. As far as I'm aware, there's no ongoing problem between blondes, gingers, tall people, short people, fat people and skinny people. Yet a geographical difference seems to be relevant enough to be a chant but to also be put forward as a legitimate reason for disliking someone. I'm yet to hear anyone suggest that we wanted Pardew out because he's grey, or old, or average height. Yet I've heard it time and time again about him being Southern. I wonder why. You may have done, but not from me.

Aye.

We lose 1-0 in the cup and subsequently argue about political correctness. Woops.

How can you not see the hypocrisy in it? You can't dig out southern media bias then insult someone based on them being a cockney. It's totally ridiculous I can dig out Southern media bias on the basis it is s***, non-factual, lazy reporting, not that it is Southern. If it is Southern based then that is geographically correct, and ultimately not a slur. Therefore, it is not hypocrisy. The Ashley chant I would agree, is somewhat hypocritical, and it is a s*** chant. But it is offensive, and offensive towards him and him alone. So I couldn't really give a s***. nah its castigating him on the basis of where is he from being a factor. It's stupidly hypocritical.All you are doing is reinforcing the stereotype that you claim the "southern" media have invented Not really, it's just describing him. The "bastard" thing is equally incorrect I'm sure but no-one is debating that. It's like being called a Cockney is worse than a fat bastard. The chant isn't well thought out, I'll give you's that. Nor is it a catchy song. The way you's go on about us calling Ashley a "Cockney" is just a little daft and sensitive for me though. Then again I'm sure I would disagree with you about racism and things like that though. FWIW that's not to say I'm a racist either - I just distinguish it differently to others. #CanOfWorms
