== Blaydon Races ==
Blaydon Races som opprinnelig er den uoffisielle klubbsangen til Newcastle United FC, er den også selve byen, Newcastle Upon-Tyne, sin sang. Selve folkesangen ble skrevet av Geordie Ridley, på 1800-tallet. Den er en kulturell sang som Geordiene synger med stor stolthet og patriotisme for byen og klubben. Navnet stammer forøvrig ifra byen Blaydon, som er en liten by i område Gateshead,6,4&nbsp;km ifra selve Newcastle Upon-Tyne. 'Races' kommer ifra Stella Haugh 1,6&nbsp;km ifra tettstedet Blaydon. Geordiene synger denne sangen på dialekt, noe som gjør det noe vanskelig å forstå for de som kommer ifra utlandet.

''Aw went to Blaydon Races, 'twas on the ninth of Joon,''

''Eiteen hundred an' sixty-two, on a summer's efternoon;''

''Thor wes lots o' lads an' lasses there, all wi' smiling faces,''

''Gannin alang the Scotswood Road, to see the Blaydon Races.''

''We flew past Airmstrang's factory, and up to the "Robin Adair",''

''Just gannin' doon te the railway bridge, the 'bus wheel flew off there.''

''The lasses lost their crinolines, an' the veils that hide their faces,''

''Ah got two black eyes an' a brokken nose in gan te Blaydon Races.''

''When we gat the wheel put on away we went agyen,''

''But them that had their noses broke they cam back ower hyem;''
