How many other SMB members not born in the North East but still follow Sunderland?....
I moved up here in the early 90s from Yorkshire. Sat in the away end for many a game as initially couldnt stand the club. Gradually started to go to games with my mates at work, my own club went bankrupt and Sunderland got under my skin.
Love the bones of the place now.![]()
Same as me.Lived away for 30+years , my lads are Worksop born but live and breathe red and white.Shall be up for the game and hopefully the party afterwards!!!!Exactly the same. My dad has a lot to answer for...
USMNT heroWhat a strange reason lol especially the Jozy one
You could have boycotted milk and supported Accrington StanleyBorn in Accrington, left at 17 to go to University, lived in a few places and landed in Sunderland at the age of 27 in 1990.
Used to laugh when my mates said we will have you supporting Sunderland one day. Been in the away end a few times at Roker Park and the SoL but the love for the Lads grew and have had a season ticket for 25 years and attended countless away games since.
Sunderland is a big club.Born in York. Moved all over the country as a kid. Been down south for 20 years. Literally could have picked whoever I liked to support, but took my dad's advice (he's from Durham) and chose Sunderland.
The utter, utter bastard.
Still, days like Sat make up for it. Don't understand why people bother supporting big teams. They'll never get close to what that felt like.
