I know through reading this thread, and similar threads over the years, people often suggest that Sunderland didn't really go looking for it but i remember them being fairly active for a few years around this time. Hibs, Everton, Millwall (fa cup and league), Hartlepool (services?) etc.

Sticking to the topic though, I've met some characters up there over the years and class a fair few of them as good friends now. Absolutely crackers but would do anything for you if needed, my type of people!

Changed in the 90s where it did start getting organised. Mid 90s Sunderland were involved in quite a bit of bother tbh.

Hibs was mental, seemed like every mad bastard that follows us got together for that day out :lol:

I was agreeing with what another poster said, if im having a pop then obviously he was yet you decide to have a go at me. The good natured stiryes are a good read, the shite about fighting i find tedious.
The photo I posted was very light hearted, if you take that seriously it says a lot about your character really.
I'll not post anymore on this thread as it's a popular one and I don't wish to derail it.

Well said I'll let you off for not mentioning Stanley Pirates :lol:
 
Some of the Sunderland characters I've seen over the years have been strangers despite always nodding and saying 'hello'.

There's one lad like that who's always been at away games for decades ...... he's a tall chap with glasses, sensible haircut, sensible trousers and sensible shoes.

He looks like a history teacher who's gone to a football match by accident but sings his head off and is always shouting abuse at the ref.

I approached him at Bournemouth, as I thought it was daft just always nodding, as I was sure we'd met properly ......
.... it turns out we hadn't and he'd always wondered why I always smiled and said hello.

I went through every possible mutual friend and relative but he just shook his head ....... for some reason it was really funny and we were cracking up by the end.

Doesn't sound in the least bit funny now I've typed it all ffs :rolleyes:

Are you telling us you had a crush on your history teacher ?
