I think they would take the piss out of you something rotten if you mentioned that version of the song. I think you need to look at the Elvis Presley version first before you mention the 'A' team Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just make out like the fanbase has latched on to this version of the song. You know, now that I've explained it, it's even funnier. Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

martoon Posted July 23, 2025 Share Posted July 23, 2025 Hearts vs. Sunderland on Saturday. Around 2-3k Mackems coming up to Edinburgh, apparently. We've played Newcastle in pre-season games in the past, including John Robertson's testimonial in 1992, but the only Sunderland visit I recall was in 1989. Hearts 1-0 in the torrential Edinburgh rain and the Mackems were in the uncovered, completely open to the elements, Gorgie Road terracing. 😃 Eric Gates got dogs abuse everytime he came anywhere near "the shed" at the opposite end. No idea why. As always, best wishes to Newcastle United for 2025/26. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wandy Posted July 24, 2025 Share Posted July 24, 2025 After the way this shit show of a summer has gone, it's nailed on that these cunts will be above us in the league after the first two games of the season. RTG will be combusting with joy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably not mentioning that they're still favourites for the drop, will never in their lifetime see Champions League football, and that their town is still a tramp-ridden tip.

The Fountain Posted July 25, 2025 Share Posted July 25, 2025 The second Isak thread on RTG was disappeared to the dungeon of shame. My guess is one mackem said Isak was better than Ross Stewart and another mackem asked him for a straightener outside the Colliery Tavern. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hovagod Posted July 26, 2025 Share Posted July 26, 2025 I was one of the agnostics when it came to their promotion but I’ve been at the cricket with a mackem and his absolute delight about Isak was genuinely tragic. I told him that this is how top level football operates- good players leave good teams- and that he wouldn’t get it. It really has me kicking myself about how gracious I have been during the last couple of years. They are pathetic cunts. In a drunken moment of weakness he told me that us winning the cup was a genuinely dark moment for him. This is both sad and deeply, deeply satisfying.
