The True Geordie

Some of the vids that TG's done since the controversy, you can see his spirit has well and truly been broken

sometimes I feel bad for him that his brand has been well and truly ripped off here with the lads that are now doing the club (both the football and poker stuff) and then remember how much of a cnut he’s been. He brought them in to do football and poker stuff, set them up with people and now they’ve left, remade a show that’s ripped off his and are getting to go to poker events and will likely start doing poker streams too. It’s actually mad how blatantly they’re copying him but not giving a feck. I love it. :lol:
 
Absolutely. No sympathy from me, but unlike the other times he rocked the boat, you can see now that all his cards have been played and it'll never ever get as good as he had it with the kick off

Not sure which controversy caused this but I remember some pretty racist and vile comments about a couple of months back. My guess is that it finally caught up with him.

Agreed. Makes me think true Geordie must be begrudging them now. It’s hard to be on the good terms after all this. Right?
 
I used to talk to Adam in the early days of FTD. He's a good lad. Also, he was a season ticket holder long before he started on youtube so you can't accuse him of faking it like some of the other clowns.

Yeah unlike Goldbridge who never goes near
 
I enjoyed some of his old content from years ago. I remember it being hilarious him doing mental gymnastics to justify Saudis buying Newcastle.

It basically boiled down to ‘I know there’s some things that might look bad but we can buy Mbappe now!’
 
I watched some of his stream from Sunday's final during my lunch today. The way he refused to give any credit to Ten Hag and kept referring back to how much money our squad costs compared to Newcastle was a reminder as to why I'm glad to see The Club essentially rip off The Kick Off and take his viewers with them. The most deluded comment he made was "if you put Rashford in Newcastle's team then we'd be well above Man United in the table". Sure thing mate - I'm sure Dan Burn would be threading through passes to Rashford in the same way Luke Shaw has done all season :lol:

I like Brian, been watching him since Jimmy Conrad debut. But he’s so clueless these days. Yeah Newcastle “dominated the possession” but they didn’t do jack shit with any of it. 90mins and no goals. Only time, was the St Max moment in the box. United clearly outscored, outthought anything Newcastle did. Feel sorry for him being backstapped by his twat friends. Least he’s pretty good with the boxing analysis.

I wish people would stop using the "dominated possession ergo deserved to win" argument. Possession is only good if you actually use it create opportunities.

I agree with everything you said apart from that sentence. Having watched Stretford Paddock videos for years, I'm pretty sure some of the people closest to Mckola are Muslim. I'd imagine he thought he'd be doing them a disservice if he continued appearing on videos with Brian after that crass comment of his went viral.

I wouldn't say Brian's friends backstabbed him. They were well within their rights to make their own channel after what he said. If you decide to make a career in doing live podcasts and you make an insensitive/Islamaphobic comment then ultimately you've got to accept your medicine.

I think it's a bit rich though when you have someone like Jennings as part of that group who says and likes on twitter a lot of questionable stuff regarding the LGBTQ+ community.

It makes them feel better.

What would concern me If I was a Newcastle fan, they played well according to them, I wont dispute it but we won 2-0.

Going to a final, playing well and not creating chances would be more of a concern than freezing in a final.

We got 2 goals, then said, break us down, if we tried to dominate the ball and waste our energy chasing, we could have been pulled apart and if Newcastle got 1 goal, it would have changed the atmosphere and momentum.

Yeah I saw the highlights of the watch along. He’s historically always been so bitter against Utd. To be fair he said ETH has done a great job with gritted teeth. But every praise is caveated with “but”.

I find the “if we didn’t have Rashford we’d struggle” argument very weak. No one would have said that at the beginning of the season. If we were told Rashford would be our main goals this season, we’d all have been worried too.

It’s testament to how good ETH has been the fact he’s got Rashford playing like this.
 
He hasn’t given any credit to ten hag at all. This is a constant theme amongst many YouTubers and rival fans referring to amount of money we spent in the summer plus saying we already had amazing players at the club.

These are the same people I swear who never rated any of our players before ten hag arrived and predicted us to finish 6th, 7th even 10th even after the players we bought before the season started. What is it then? Is tenhag a genius or we always had world class players and any manager could have got where we are? No logic no nuances no recognition just pure biasness and hatred.
 
Newcastle fans overall are so badly rattled it’s hilarious. Their funniest argument is talking about how great their fanbase is compared to United

This argument is only used against United.

When you look at other top clubs, they have 1 goal scorer. Lewandowski, Benzema, Mbappe, Haaland, Kane.

That is what a forward does, score goals. Its quite funny because the same people also probably said, Ronaldo gets all the goals, without him where the goals coming from?

Saw a great quote from Adam Crafton on this - United convinced Newcastle they were playing well when in actuality they weren’t getting into any areas to hurt them.

Dominate possession is such a silly argument. That’s why they say goals change games. If a team scores a goal or two, there is no need for them to try and push forward and dominate the ball.

It was noticeable ETH wanted Newcastle to continue to press high like they have been doing and then used De Gea to bypass their press by going long to Weghorst. It was another ETH master class. Took out their midfield every time. There was no need for us to try and dominate the ball once we took the lead.

To be fair they do have a great fanbase - one of the biggest and most passionate in the country.

Shame that the team itself is second rate at best and plays shite cynical football.

I don't follow Rory Jennings on Twitter but I'm disappointed to hear that as he comes across as quite a jovial harmless guy on stream.

On the old kick off stream he said a lot of shite which was dodgy and he likes a bunch of tweets surrounding the trans debate which tell you quite clearly where he stands.

I think it was right that Geordie got stick for what he said and did but the football community on YouTube and Twitch is really toxic and there are a lot of cnuts within it. It just feels like there are favourites who get away with stuff and others who don't.

It's not a surprise. I think it's a combination of him a) not knowing that much about football and b) having a huge hate boner for Man Utd. He's always used United in clickbaity type videos because he knows it gets clicks. He'll probably release a 10 minute clip on his Kick Off YouTube channel shitting on us to rake in the views.

Him and McKenna would regularly make videos with that as their sole purpose.
 
I wish people would stop using the "dominated possession ergo deserved to win" argument. Possession is only good if you actually use it create opportunities.
And if anything, it was one of the tactical approaches that vindicated Ten Hag's management of the game - we just came off a gruelling, intense game against Barcelona, some of our players are pretty much running on fumes, and we've seen Newcastle are not particularly creative with the ball. Letting them have the possession, but being lethal in our moments, was a perfectly valid approach to the game.
 
There's always been a bias in his coverage, whether that be football or MMA.

His boxing/MMA coverage did seem a little racially motivated though, its not that he had so much love for McGregor, which I have no issue with, its the hate he showed to Khabib and as of late Islam Makhachev, its like it was personal for him. With the boxing the hate he showed AJ was very similar too, the level of hate he had for AJ choosing to fight out in Saudi was crazy, and on them live shows where he couldn't edit and cut bits it came out very clearly.

Yeah it's a pointless argument. LVG dominated every match but had 2 shots all fecking game. That was painful.

I get what your saying. But I'm sure they've said more worse shite off camera. You hear that joke being told a million times for years. It was an obvious typical over reaction from the twitters. Just me I guess, if someone helped me the way Brian helped those eejits, I'd be pretty grateful. Some shitty joke wouldn't change my opinion. He took his licks online and lost whatever spsnsorship, shit happens. Not like he attacked someone.

He's talking shite, remove almost any team's best player and they'll struggle to an extent. Take Bruno Guimaraes out of that Newcastle side and they'd be comfortably mid-table.

There wasn't a single moment during the actual game where I was worried or didn't think we'd win. It's as simple as that. Even in this mythical first half where they dominated us, they created one half chance that had a goalkeeper and 2 defenders in the way and we scored 2 actual, real goals.

Agreed, we were tired, we didn't want possession. That's why Ten Hag goaded Newcastle into attacking, and it worked wonders.

Yeah it's become a part of everyone's repertoire for lazy football analysis.

Same as 'counter-attack' has now become some sort of criticism, much in the same way long-ball was viewed 10 years ago.

If you listened to the media then there is only one way to play football...but watching City beat Arsenal 3-1 with 30% possession erm cough lets move on that doesn't align with the boring repetitive narrative.

It's just a big inferiority complex. They were not battered by big scary Man Utd and even had more possession == they played better and deserved to win.
 
Man Utd fans are obsessed about Alan Shearer. Who knew? I guess that Treble a few years after he chose Newcastle over us was a small consolation, but in reality nothing could heal the wound that he left.

I had a few pull me up on it on the tube/wembley way. 'You lot are obsessed with him'. No mate it's just the only song we have about you lot and it seems to touch a nerve.
