Dad was from sunderland and moved south. I was born and Grew up in Surrey/South London. I'm sunderland till I die. No choice about it. I go to games at the sol and won't hide my accent because I'm not from Sunderland. But love the club and if anyone tells me that I'm not a fan cos I'm not from Sunderland they can fuck right off.
Indeed son!

Eeeee, i were born n bred in Accrington, drank mi milk till I were 17 then left there in 1980 to go to Nottingham to University.

Lived all over for 10 years till 1990 when I landed in Sunderland and have never left.

I consider myself a Mackem but no one else does.
Honary Mackem then!

I posted earlier in this thread about my Seaham Harbour upbringing (sorry, I know that officially 'Harbour' has been long-since dropped, but it will always be that for me) and it would pain me if the Mags had a serious foothold in my old home town. The odd barcode is bad enough, which is what you seem to be suggesting, and I know there was infiltration when we were swimming against the John Hall-Special K tide.
Give it to me straight...is it the odd instance now - or a serious infestation?
