A permanent fixture when I first started watching the lads, did he ever miss a game?
A good hard as nails full back who gave his all for our club.
Players like him are true legends.

Even as a manager some unforgettable times. THAT game against Man Utd with Clive Walker, two penalties, two sending offs, and an epic comeback.
The night Chris Turner came of age at White Hart Lane. "Hoddle makes the mistake, Chisholm has the shot, and it's gone in." Soon followed by "Ohhhhh! What a save!"
Handing Watford their first domestic cup home defeat in nearly a decade, while some of us were doing the full monty, on a freezing midweek winter night at Vicarage Road.
Giving QPR a thumping at a wet and windy Roker Park, after which Brian Moore mused "They really look as if they mean business" as we quietly, almost unassumingly, crept up towards the battle for European places, before it somehow all disintegrated.
Above all, he was Sunderland through and through. He clearly loved the club to bits.

I believe he has our record for appearances as an outfield player, am I wrong?

He was one of Bill Shankly's big regrets that he didn't make him a Liverpool player.
That's all anyone needs to know.

Still holds the SAFC appearance record for an outfield player. It's highly likely he always will.
