Perhaps it's yet another Americanism which our youth have adopted due to their lack of grammar in favour of believing the American pronunciation is the correct method.
Scott Walker sang "noo" in his song Mrs Murphy in the 60s. Lately I've been hearing it a lot over here. Listen out for it. It's just those from the lower class, I think.

Next time Noo castle are playing you will hear it a lot.
