No Geordies in Horden only pit yakers - Geordies are from Newcastle
, Mackems from Sunderland and pit yakers from Durham pit villages. Calling Durham mining folk Geordies is akin to calling Nuneaton folk Brummies. Half my family from the Trimdon area and Peterlee- top of Horden bank - Horden Colliery, once the largest Colliery in Britain. Lots of Nuneaton families came to Nuneaton from East durham which was also a hot bed of amateur and non league football.
