alright lads & lases

[old time safc]

Writing a book about the tales and travels of Safc fans(not about violence.) all in aid of charity money will be coming out of my pocket to do this with round about 100 copies being produced. Will be for cancer as my old man loved reading stories of past and present Sunderland fans before he sadly passed away.

Promised him i would write this book so here I am. Would like to hear tales from the 50s if i can ,60s ,70s ,80s, 90s, 00s .Ive had a few off my mates but would like a wider range people including who are not from Sunderland who have no connection to the local areas who follow.

If you would like to help out or have a input in it drop me your name and email its all for a good cause,cheers. Not asking for donations of money just of history following the lads. Also been in touch with a few ex players.


Cheers.

I went to Derby and got very very drunk before the match. I bought a Hulk Hogan poster before the game in Ilkeston.

That sir is GOLD.

Read a tale on here of some lads who hoyed a massive container of piss up through a skylight on a minibus, only for it to slide up the bus, come in the back one and soak everyone in a cocktail of piss.

Chuckled for days.

We were short of tickets for the cup tie at old Trafford so one lad rang ticket office at MUFC pretending to be on a war ship and wanted surprise tickets for his kids for Xmas as it was the first time he was back for over a year, after being told no and it had sold out he then span the story some more and even paused pretending there was a 3 second delay in the call, she went to ask her manager and sure enough came back and said we have found U 3, when we rocked up to collect all the girls in the office were there to greet him and on the envelope was his army name he had given.

Went to the Man Utd game when Cantona ran through the whole team and chipped Perez. Before the game myself & 2 mates got the train from Picadilly to Old Trafford. It seems that we were the only Sunderland fans on the packed train as the Man Utd fans were singing their songs. After a while the carriage we were in went quiet and after having a few drinks, we decided to sing "Shearer is a wanker", after the 1st round of singing a few Man Utd fans laughed at the lyrics so we kept singing, by the time we reached Old Trafford, the whole carriage had joined in!

Charlton away was a good day as all the lads had been torturing a lad for scoring with this utter munter a few nights before we set off down London. As we all stood in the away end before kick off we all planned to get the PA bloke to make an announcement for the lad concerned.

11 mins into the game and my friend had called the Charlton press office to ask for Adam's name to be announced as his girlfriend (the horror) needed to get in touch with him.

The whole end erupted as he went bright red and denied all knowledge of her!

When we won 3.1 at the Sports Direct (early 80s), my mates and me got the train early, and as there were not too many of us we got chased from the station, all the way to the ground.

On the way back there were thousands of us singing as we walked back to the station. the traffic had stopped and there was a car stuck in the middle with a lad and his lass looking (quite rightly) petrified.

The lads nearest to the car picked it up and carried it a few yards before the coppers on the horses started yelling for them to put it down again.
