Indeed it was. The game has changed since then thoughOf course man, some of us were there in the old third division, and it was a cracking season that by the way 1987/88.
A mate of mine is a fan of Leicester Tigers so I've seen a few games with him over the years. Another mate follows Gloucester, so ditto there. Always great crack. Fans mixing together over a few beers. I won't even start on the respect afforded to the refereewe are the only team i have any interest in. i couldn't care less about any other team apart from whoever the mags are playing. the game is shite nowadays.
i get more enjoyment watching the rugby. i get more into that than any of the games on tv. been to see the falcons and mowden at darlington. some games are quite exciting really and you don't feel as though you're a 'customer'
I love the area and really miss coming up but I don't want to watch the lads play at home. It is a long way to come to watch players who are apathetic and couldn't give a toss about the Club.
In my lifetime I've watched the team religiously home & away, had some great times alongside some that were not so enjoyable, but I needed to "pull the plug" and stop going because of work. The game has changed so much over those years that I follow our results but have no interest whatsoever in watching weekly games on tv (apart from us) because of the way it is now.
I still buy club merchandise because being a fan is something you cannot escape. I also visit where Roker Park used to be and go back over the happy memories, sad I know but the club/game I followed no longer exists, sadly.
I’ve lost the love for football of all kinds. Obviously will continue to be a Sunderland supporter whatever happens but have just lost interest. There’s only so many let downs and shite that someone can take. Don’t watch MOTD anymore or most football that is on tbh. It’s sad times.
