Its fair to saw quite a few of the posters here see that this place is a "Hive of activity" and that its a place they can get plenty of attention, and thus tag along with the SAFC side of things.
Yeah, I know what you mean.

Not wanting to open another can of worms but with only support from within Sunderland SAFC would be well F****D!
Little yellow fecka with tin helmet on! :wink:
You could say that about most teams though.
I reckon a 48,000 crowd at the Sol would have about 20,000 townies there. The other 26 or so thousand would be summat like..
10,000 Tyneside (mostly South) and Northumberland
10,000 County Durham/N Yorks
6000 Rest of the country/abroad.
Of course I could be talking complete bollox :roll:

I never stood a chance!
RobD said:Well I'm one of those glory hunting supporters who started supporting Sunderland after the FA Cup win in 73. Originally from near Northampton, I wanted to support a different team from the rest of the family (Coventry supprters) so decided to support the winners of the cup final that year. And it just stuck.
I've dragged my wife along to games, I proposed to her the evening after her first ever game (Oct 98 against Bury? at SoL) and now I've got a 17 month old who is destined to follow the same roller coaster ride - poor lad.
Now if I'd just thought about it a bit longer things could have been so different if I'd chosen Man Utd, but then you don't do that when you're only 4 years old do you
