A person who is originally from Newcastle, a city in the North East of England, but who also lives anywhere within the Tyneside area. They are known for their very distinctive accent, being die-hard Newcastle United fans and for their ability to consume vast quantities of alcohol. They also known for being quite friendly, approachable and charitable. They are absolutely not to be confused with "Chavs", but this happens frequently as a result of false stereotypes concocted by prejudiced Southerners. According to anyone south of Manchester, Geordies are poorly educated Neanderthals with a severe speech disorder who lives off benefits, gets drunk all day at the tax payers expense, have foul mannerisms, lives only for football and can be found in council flats - which describes Chavs perfectly, but not Geordies (unless they are Geordie Chavs).

Geordies are also known for their mastery in manual labour (i.e. construction, steel and ship building) or engineering. Newcastle was once devoted to ship building and various areas in Tyneside were known for heavy manufacturing and mining. Various world class colleges, universities and cultural venues exist in the Tyneside area today, drawing much tourism and revenue from education. Newcastle University is one of the UK's most highly ranked universities for medicine, mechanic and civil engineering and naval architecture. Geordies like Cheryl Coal, Bobby Robson and Mike Ashley stand as cultural icons.

An awful race of people who claim to be the 'friendliest people in Britain'. I assure you they are not. An example would be to pay a visit to the drinking establishments after 10pm where you are guaranteed see semi-naked, truly foul mouthed 'women' being pawed by equally foul mouthed Neanderthals. Same drunken Cro-Magnon male will stick a broken pint glass in your face as soon as look at you whilst shouting 'SHEARER! SHEARER!" and his mates are sticking the boot into you. Not saying this wouldn't happen anywhere else in Britain, but these excuses for humanity are the worst
Man in pub: Whoops sorry mate I've knocked your pint and it's spilt a little bit..I'll get you another"
Geordie:Ya Fuckin cockney bastard, am gonna fuckin knack ye (proceeds to force pint pot into mans mouth"
Geordies Girlfriend: Gan on kidda, knack the cunt!"

From George (Greek Georgios d. 303 A.D.) + IE. Geordie is a term that has come come to denote two things:

1. A native of Tyneside

2. A supporter of Newcastle United (the noted pigeon crap of the North East).

The latter of these two has created a change to the traditional Geordie song, Blaydon Races. The new version is as follows:

Oh, me lads! You shoulda seem 'em gannin,
Dyre and co., havin a god - all the toon git bangin,
Thor was lots o' lads 'n' lasses there,
Fanies was git aching!
We divvn't need the Champion's - we'd rather gan out rapin!
Geordies are give a bad name by Newcastle United.

A primative sub-species of humanity found around the river tyne in the north east of England.

More easily spotted during cold weather because of a penchent to wear very little clothing in order to prove their virility to the female of the species. Females do likewise.

Full of bravado but for display purposes only. Can usually be found kicking telephone boxes to bits around their watering hole when frustraed by major disappointments.
Did you see the geordies in 1989?

Aye! Three hundred on the pitch and they still couldn't put the ball in the net.
