I was frantically looking for some info regarding your 9-1 win. I was convinced that there was some sort of board interference at the time that saw them pick the team that day over a dispute with the manager. I couldn't find it so I may have been confused about another game.

Anyway, looking at my United we Stand book written by John Gibson, which I have had for years, I came across the following.

The derbies of the early 1900's were always littered with incidents and the following season, on Septemeber 18, 1909, came the horse stabbing affair at Roker Park.

After half an hour's play, with United ahead through a Stewart goal, the excitement became too much at the Fulwell end and the crowd poured on to the pitch stopping play for quarter of an hour. Two policeman on prancing horses attempted to restore order and in the chaos that followed one of the horses was stabbed. YOU EVIL BASTARDS.

Clearly the Mags have a history with horses. They are a bit friendly these days they only punch them now!

It's the OP you need to aim that post at not me Bonny lad.
I'm just pointing out how it makes me chuckle how people can't help themselves responding in annoyance to things that are irrelevant. :lol:

And you can't help using anything, absolutely anything to have a dig at the club, the team or most importantly it's supporters. As I said a weasel of a man.

And how do you know it was a Sunderland supporter? There was no segregation in those days. With your history with horses it was likely a mag.

Oh and obsessed beyond comprehension.

How do you hold a conversation with someone if you think they are on a wind up? Do you just walk away, or stay mute?

Don't give the wind up the oxygen of a response to feed off.
You'd be surprised just how quickly those wind ups would stop trust me.
