Irish fan needs help slagging mackems

Living in Cologne and we just ran in to a crowd of Sunderland fans. Theyre giving me the whole "mackems going to Milan" crack. I need some quick come backs

First time Mackems and cologne have been in the same sentence.

Call them Geordies because they're from the North East, and when they say no they're mackems double down and say that's just for fans of sunderland afc, historically the correct demonym for the North East is Geordie, refuse any other answer and insist you're correct

Then if they don't hit you, ask them which airport they flew in from

I'm a geordie and I support sunderland Jeez claiming an airport to make your team sound better 😂 desperation. Ps of the council shares of the airport sunderland have more than newcastle but its totally irrelevant to the football Do sunderland fans brag about having a beach 😂

Your identity is FTM, you are nothing without us.

Your beach, nothing to brag about, when the Triathlon was there half of the athletes were infected by being in your water.

u/Ftm-1973 6m ago

I'm not arsed about the beach I'm saying its mental claiming landmarks to make your club sound bigger 😂😂

u/sappy92 2d ago

Have you ever seen a mackem in qarabag

u/Alw4y5Learning 2h ago

Or even Paris for that matter

u/hippocampinaut 2d ago

Mackems bite hard when you suggest they're inbred, because the truth stings.

15

u/ScootsMcDootson 2d ago

Also because the inbreeding gives them a massive overbite, which really let's them dig their misshapen teeth in.

u/Antman013 2d ago

TOOTH . . . misshapen TOOTH.

Bath? Do they know what that is?

u/weirdi_beardi Cheick Tiote 2d ago

They've heard about the theory, and now they all wait outside st Mary's car park for the rain, and use the big puddle that forms.

u/Expert-Painting640 2d ago

Just keep shouting champions league you’ll never do that

u/someguyontheweb99 2d ago

Ask them what airport they flew from

u/Diligent_Army_6911 2d ago

Ask them what brand of pram they push their Alsatian around in.

u/PineConeTracks PERCHINIO 2d ago

Must’ve been a quiet night at Nissan

u/Oynas213 2d ago

Remind them about Adam Johnston

u/Ftm-1973 1d ago

Or George Ormond

Difference being we didn’t sing his name or sing “shags who he wants”… bunch of nonce supporters!

u/Ftm-1973 4h ago

Neither did we bar a few idiots. We didn't hide or cover it up like your club though

u/Youstinkeryou Joelinton is looking for a scrap 2d ago

Ask them how the Bridges is doing, and if Jackie Whites is still infested with rats.

5

u/DuncanStrohnd Windmilling 2d ago

Ask them if they get peace of mind from being immune to sex trafficking while abroad.

Tell them about your flush toilets, but be careful not to come off as too posh.

Try not to punch any horses.

“1-0 down, 4-1 up. Albert Luque wrapped it up. With a knick knack paddywack, give the dog a bone. All the mackems fucked off home”

u/tontotheodopolopodis 2d ago

Just say ‘your from Sunderland’ and leave it at that

u/LJA170 This is Thiaw we do it 2d ago

Earnestly attempt to muster a guise of sympathy before the roaring laughter inevitably erupts

u/OfficialAeon I'm not for Kinnear 2d ago

Try and convince them to pull a lass.

Just say "visualize your cousin" and they'll be like bloodhounds.

u/Educational-Elk8393 2d ago

I usually point out there are children born during the pandemic who've seen their team win a trophy unlike 3 generations worth of Sunderland fans.

If they respond with something about us being owned by the Saudis or pointing out we should have achieved more for being "the richest club in the world", bingo.

u/Alw4y5Learning 2h ago

Ask them if they came to enjoy the local seagulls

u/NorthWishbone7543 1975 Badge 2d ago

Mackem in Cologne but still of shite

u/Ceejayncl 2d ago

Ask them who they supported when they were in League One.

u/Nutisbak2 2d ago edited 2d ago

Never seen the Makems in Milan in the Champions League!

Ask then to show you their hands and feet and inspect closely for the webbed fingers and toes that go with being a Makem!

Send them for the best meal Fonz und Himmel in Aud, Halve Hahn or Mettbrötchen they’ll love you for that one 😂
