The 80's was a rough era though. Most towns have moved on since then, but it's fair to say that parts of Sunderland haven't.on the whole yes but every single time we came to Sunderland for a night out we got grief ( mid to late 80s )
we probably stood out mind, always a mini bus full because there was no transport from Birtley to Sunderland and we wouldn't know where we were going either, never ventured into town on a matchday from Roker
