Now you as a American will understand why we love football you will get it, when u get a game like that it just makes u fall in love with the game

I'm from Newcastle (I was a season ticket holder in the 90's), I have lived in the US for about 20 years now - anyway, this was an awesome video, St James' is a very special place to watch football and this was a particularly special match - you definitely chose well - that moment when the lady first opened the door and you hear the stadium in full voice gave me goosebumps! Like another commenter said, please don't judge the city on those drunk students, or what that lady said about your name - which was horrible, I'm sorry and embarrassed that you experienced that - Newcastle may not be the most diverse place in the world, but the vast majority of people are open and friendly to folk no matter where you come from or what you look like - and are just generally better than that. I hope I'm not wrong!

hahaha its "Geordie boys, taking THE piss" but close enough :) Glad you enjoyed it boys! We were just above you beside the PSG fans. Great game

Nice to see an American perspective on the Toon vs PSG game enjoyed the video 👍

as a fellow goerdie i apolgise for the ladys comments. dont know where she gets hat type of atitude and bad manners from as we are very friendly and open people in the north east, well except sunderland but thats a differant matter. hwtl.

I'd visit if I didn't live there! Born & bred Geordie here. Really enjoyed the video. Deserves more views! How the hell did you score tickets? they're like gold! Newcastle United & St. James Park are generally regarded as having best fans & atmosphere in the country. So it will be interesting to see how your Liverpool experience compares. Also interesting how you said it's loudest atmosphere you've heard... imagine what PSG players thought? they didn't know what hit them. They were arrogant/ignorant and got spanked. New owners are planning to increases capacity of stadium to 65,000 (which will make it 2nd largest in Premier League) but it's difficult because of protected historical building nearby. After 14 years of being in a coma under previous owner I'm just enjoying the ride to our eventual rise with our new owner to dominating the football world. Saudi Arabia doesn't play 2nd fiddle to anyone. The first ever match I attended as a young boy was also a Champion League game in 1997. Newcastle beat Barcelona 3-2. PSG's current manager Luis Enrique was playing for Barcelona that day.

Actually one story which dates back further for the meaning of Geordie is the north was a big supporter of King George, he was cut off from his army in battle and surrounded, the only regiment to come to his rescue where the northern regiment, who fought through and dragged him out, he was the last king to lead us into battle and since then we where known as "Georges men" and was later abbreviated to Geordies, glad you enjoyed the atmosphere.

Well this Geordie boy was taking a piss with the amount of cans I drank that night. Like a fucking racehorse.

Watch out for those bed bugs in Paris. By the way, it’s “Geordie boys, taking THE piss”, if you take the piss or take the piss out of someone it just means that you’re making a fool out of them. You’d say “ah, stop taking the piss man”. And we took more than the piss out of Paris, we destroyed them that night.

Great video. Your face when you first walked into the ground and heard the noise. That night was the best atmosphere I've ever witnessed at St James Park, it was bouncing. Glad you enjoyed it and hope you enjoyed the city too 👏👏👍

I was on holiday in New York when this game was on. It was absolutely incredible. A game I will never forget

Great video lads👍

Filled a lifelong dream a few months back while in the UK for work. Got to go to a game at St James Park. Was epic

Glad to to see your stay was enjoyable in the Toon

As a Geordie. That was a great vlog. And to be honest. I was asked if I had anything for heartburn!! Answer being yeah. A Greggs sausage roll 🤣🤣

Great video, I really enjoyed it. I couldn’t get tickets for the match so watching everyone else’s experience has been fantastic. Seeing an American’s view on it has been great too. There’s debate about the origin of the name “Geordie”. Most historians agree it was because of loyalty to the crown of King George I. The rival town is Sunderland. There is a massive reason rivalry with Sunderland. This stems from the wealth of Newcastle from its merchants, but goes deeper to the crown loyalty. The Mackems (this is what people from Sunderland are called) supported Scotland, and King James VII (of Scotland,if he’d been crowned). The people of Newcastle supported King George, not only politically, but also fought for him. They became known as Georgie’s Boys, which was later corrupted to “Geordies”. The miners lamp came around 100 years later, but there’s documents supporting the earlier use of the term Geordie in relation to Novacastrians which is the proper term for a person from Newcastle.

Geordies got the name due to their loyalty to King George the 2nd (the mad king). Also, George Stephenson is most famous for inventing trains or locomotive to you. The first being George Stephensons Rocket.

Very Very emotional game ❤🎉

Honesty mate what a class video!! massive respect good to see it from a American geordies perspective! Would of give me nut sack for a ticket

If been going to St James for as long as i can remember & im in my 40s. That night was up there with one of the best nights many of us have ever witnessed in that stadium. You don't know how lucky you were ha. 😊

that was a special game but we could of been playing a team from league 2 (4th leagues below us) and it wouldnt of been much different...

Nice one lads liked & subscribed.. Bit of context on the name "Geordie," I'm actually reading two books, one on my family history in Northumberland, the other is about the "Border Rievers" and the name Geordie is stated in both books, the earliest is in court records from the 14th century.!!??

excellent video if your ever back in Newcastle let me buy you a Gregg's you missed out on some major classic's such as the steak or chicken bake, sausage bean and cheese melts, the famous stottie cake the list goes on. A basic sausage roll doesn't do it justice. There's also other local delicacy's such as saveloy and peas pudding sandwiches lol.

Alright boss, thanks for visiting our city and our Cathedral on the hill, St James Park, you couldn't of been going to a wedding at a better time for you to be able to see the slaughter of PSG. The word Geordie was used a long time before G Stevenson, it is actually goes back to England's Hanovarian King George 3rd 1714 to 1830. Your welcome back any time my man 🤜🏼

Thanks for that. If you thought that end was good then imagine what the real Home End "The Gallowgate" at the other end was like where fans stood throughout the game whether they were in seats or not. lol Shame you did not see the impressive PDG parade to the stadium, one hour before the game with a police escort and Geordies lining the route to the stadium. Good Luck:)

Were trying to make it bigger aswell so it will only get louder. Glad you enjoyed it though!!

With regards to the Sausage Rolls, they taste better when they are fresh out of the oven. Think the amount of Greggs stores there is around Newcastle City Centre is in double figures, there is one accross the road from the station and I believe they have one inside the station too.
