There's a bunch of Mackems and they're in the Army. God knows how. Anyway, they're in Africa, and they've got to cross a river where the bridge has been blown up. They're about to wade in, when they see crocodiles on the far shore. "OK" says the sergeant, "I need a volunteer to swim to the other side". No one volunteers. So he says "Look I'll give the Victoria Cross, the George Cross and even bloody Charing Cross to the man who will swim that river". After a while, one of them hesitatingly pipes up he'll do it. He dives in, and the crocs launch off. But they don't touch him. How the hell did you manage that? They ask him later. He opens his shirt, and on his chest is tatooed "Sunderland for the Championship". "Not even a crocodile will swallow that", he says.

Isn't that a re-hash of that Ian Paisley joke or a meringue?

Would 'Mackem Joke' be considered an oxymoron?
