just noticed one of them on RTG repeating the myth that some Newcastle fans will not eat bacon due to the colour.

 

Has anyone ever experienced this or is it aother "repeat it until its true" kinda thing.

 

Mind they are the fans that boycotted Sugar Puffs.

Depends what Bacon, i won't eat the rashers because they are like stripes. The rest is edible.

 

I get the medal ones(i think thats the name anyway) none of the fat on it just all beautiful bacon. Nothing better than 9 rashers in 1 stottie marra

There is also a clip on youtube from Tyne Tees news at the time, of Mackems saying they'd no longer be shopping at Sports Direct (or whatever they were called at the time) when Mike Ashley took over NUFC. ;D

I remember when Northern Rock took over our sponsorship and a shitload of Mackems pulled their money (okay, not much admittedly) out of there.

I guess it's about now that the EL turns from a Micky Mouse tournament that anyone could win to a top competition that we're clearly not in the same class of.

 

If we win it, it's a mickey mouse competition full of teams from the Faroe Islands. If we lose it becomes one of the most prestigious tournaments ever and we were out of place there.

i bet most of the stuff on that forum is made up, like 'the mag pizza delivery guy story', 'the neighbour taking his kids to see the mags play a european match story'

i remember seeing this mackem knacker smashing brown ale bottles outside the royalty pub in sunderland after one of the tyne-wear derbies because 'they came from newcastle'

 

can't say i've ever seen red bacon either  ;D

The Bacon thing is from a programme called 'Two Tribes' (clips can be found on Youtube), about the Tyne-Wear football rivalry.

 

At the start, a Newcastle fan claims he wont eat bacon as its red & white. Obviously, this is now Mackem-lore, and every Newcastle fan refuses to eat bacon for that reason, too.

 

The programme/clips also feature a Mackem who changed his name to have 'Sunderland AFC in the middle.
