I think he grew up in Newcastle and played for them as well. Is that what Geordie means? Newcastle is way up north, and they have lots of coal there.

Wikipedia to the rescue again:
Geordie refers to a person from the Tyneside region in north east England, in particular the city of Newcastle and the adjacent areas, or to the dialect of English spoken by these people.

I hate the way they over dramatize stuff...american commentators...
They feel the need to tell the whole life story of the player when he has the ball...
Plus they get hype with some simple stuff...
"o !..ronALDINHO...HE Passes back to deco..wait....ronALDINHO WITH THE BALL AGAIN....SHOWIN GREAT FOOTWORK..aww he passes it off."
and the goerdie guy is yellin "yes" everytime barca attacks...when someone else other than dinho has the ball they get quiet...When HE does get the ball they gradually get louder....

OK, geniuses, tell me where the term Geordie comes from. If a person is from Tyneside I would call him a Tynsider. Geordie makes no sense at all.

The Wiki article above has a section discussing that issue:

Where I live (Nottingham, about 150 miles south of Newcastle) if you asked 100 people at random what term they use to describe people from Newcastle, I would say that around 80-90% would say Geordie.
In fact most people I've known over the years who come from Newcastle would quite happily refer to themselves as geordies.
I can honestly say I've never heard them called "Tynsiders" before.
A geordie guy I work with says the term goes back a couple of hundred years. It has something to do with siding with King George. For some reason "Georges Men" got abreviated to "Geordies". I dare say if you asked 10 people from Newcastle you'd get 10 different versions though!

Tyneside is an term that refers to the area surrounding the Tyne. This includes Newcastle but also places like Gateshead, Blaydon, North and South Shields, Jarrow, Monkseaton and Tynemouth.
Now it is my understanding for living here for most of my life that you can only be called a Geordie if you were born or have lived the majority of your life in Newcastle or one of the surrounding areas. This only includes surrounding areas which are NORTH of the Tyne. So someone like this Hudson fellow who sounds more like a mackem than a geordie isn't a geordie since he was born in Gateshead. But for arguments sake no one really cares.

that's only because living over there you kind of get spoonfed Hugh Grant type accents or worse.
The posh accent, which seems to be regarded as typical over there, isn't even a regional accent. No part of the country spaks like that. It's just fee-paying private schools where speaking in a certain way is seen as important.
Ray Hudson is virtually unknown in this country, by the way.

But he is a legend when it comes to GolTV viewers, so it seems.
