The Geordie-Mackem Rivalry P.S from Fenham
The Geordie-Mackem Rivalry is an inter-city rivalry in North East England between the two cities of Sunderland and Newcastle just 12 miles apart and are in the same county of tyne and wear. Geordies are usually from the city centre as well as the surrounding villages and towns of Scotswood,Benwell,Elswick,Fenham,Byker,Heaton,Wallsend,walker and North Shields. some say that the being a Geordie also extends to south shields and Gateshead some on the north side of the river say that they are discount Geordies or to quote a "local man lying Mackem bastards. to be a Mackem you need to be from Sunderland or the surrounding suburbs. The original reason for the hatred between these two peoples is because in the English civil war Newcastle was Royalist unlike the poorer Wearside counterparts which led to Sunderland becoming a Parliamentarian which eventually evolved into the borderline racism which is here today. Another reason for the 322 year war is the Newcastle derby in 2013 which was the latest battle in the war as of 2020 where Sunderland won 3-0 which left the natives in a blood lust which led to local Geordie patriot Barry Rogerson punched a police horse called Bud in the face he was later wrongfully arrested for the mere act of rioting. when it finished Four police officers were injured and 29 arrests made. Confrontation between fans of the rival clans at Newcastle's Central Station earlier that day when the Mackems set of the train where they were met by hundreds of defenders where a local proverb was said "Don't blame Newcastle. Don't blame Northumbria Police. Blame Sunderland! as well as "Sunderland's a massive club are they fuck!. to end this of it must be stated that Geordies and Mackems both to some extent view the other as non human and due to this hatred communities and family's are held together by this fact.
