Jarrow Roofing FC



I used to go to loads of Boldon CW home games as a nipper. Used to get crowds of between 10 and 20. Some of them only popped in for a few minutes between bowls matches.

Jarrow Roofing transformed the place; dug outs, covered seats and even a terraced stand. When I went, there was a rail round the pitch to lean on a grassy bank behind one of the goals.
 
Bit strong like, but I get the sentiment.
Sunderland residents/fans willing these other local clubs on to better things, likes of Shields and that. Fuck them man. Chance we could be playing the c*nts some day. Each time one of these rag tag lot gain a promotion and we get relegated we lose a handful of fans. Fuck them.
 
Both my dad and my uncle played for Boldon Colliery Welfare..have an old pic of them as part of a team photo. Must have been mid 1930s.

What a shame.
