Thing is you can be as angry or as peed off as you want about the team, that'll never overshadow the feeling of being together with Sunderland fans.
Why I don't buy into the crap they spout, we were there before them, and will be there after them. It's our club not owners or players, ours

Spot on Janey, my lad wasn't indoctrinated the way we were because we lived abroad but one night in Covent Garden changed that

Gilly had a seat next to us in front row of the North stand during the early days of the SoL, a right character. He'd never be in the seat til at least 20 mins of the match had gone. You'd see him appear down the front of the South stand and slowly drag his arse round the front of the East stand til he finally got to his seat, usually rat-arsed and with gravy stains round his gob.

I posted this before but we had a 20 per seater at Tranmere one year, the seats were raised above the aisle, I was in the the middle of the back seat looking straight down the aisle. I fell asleep and when I woke up I looked down and Gilly was grinning up at me, nearly shit myself waking up pissed and looking at that handsome bastard lying on the floor with his head between my feet. The pirates had fucked off without him and he thought Birtley was as close as he'd get.

Riv....you are the craziest I've met:lol:...but that's a long story..especially the walsall pub little accident.....buy me beer at Bournmouth and i'll tell you all the tales
To answer a few others i read...
The Bear....met him first at Durham Athletics, He was hoying the shot, he came to me and Paul Stangrem, the about 6 2 and shot hoyer as well, and threw shot in air and nutted it....just to prove he was harder I guess...next saw him in the Upper deck , I was with eddie Emms , skin head, from The Ra, didn't know he had a mag badge on his Harrington , but The Bear saw it ...he followed me into toilet and was up for starting but recognised me from shot hoying and he and his mates allowed me to take the mag out without harm ....sometimes you are lucky..met him many times at match after , lunatic of course ...
the Scorpion Head ...was in Harbour View , night match , toilets crammed , standing pissing when someone behing burts door in and pushed me outta way and I pissed down leg , turned around to front the fker and give him a clout but kept looking up and up and up and then saw the fkers heed with the scorion's , by now he was saying he;d just got out of Durham ( jail I think not the Uni ) and was "borsting"...decided the better part of valour was to go back and sup another beer
A mate in whitburn club told me after some weeks after he was on plane with their lass to spain when 4 Mags in tops caused bother , nutting some old guy who asked them to stop swearing with his wife and kids around ..they then laid out the stewardess, ....the rest came down plane to try to cuff them ...but one huge bloke with scorpions on his head , stopped them , and went hiself , and knocked them all out ...one still unconscious when taken off plane by poliss,,he was bought booze all the way to Malaga ...never seen the Scorpion heed since ....
happy days ....

One of my first times there was in the cup, told the Victoria was a home pub & to watch out. Red & white everywhere at the pub & then noticed a few black bits on the scarfs on people's wrist ;) ;)

Another all our yesterdays. Travelling back from somewhere by coach this time,can't even remember where! Stopped off in Harrow for a night out. Riots in the town. Some of the lads raided an off licence. Coppers searched the coach and arrested a few lads. Had to travel back down there to appear in court.

Bob Buscall in the middle. Remember the 5 0 League Cup night at Coventry. Asked to leave by West Midlands 'finest'. Got let in Coventry end by a bent turnstile gadgie. Bob pissed through a random letterbox on the way back to car to show his displeasure. Happy days.
