Roker end would cover that pitch before it was chopped down.
 
Got to be some Sunderland related history behind the name of this non-league ground?

I'd like to think so but probably just a coincidence; "Our present ground was first used in 1911 by Stotfold Athletic when it was just a meadow named 'Roker'." in their history section.
 
O/t. I discovered a Roker Avenue in Whitley Bay recently. Must have passed it 100s of times but only just noticed.
 
I bet local mags deliberately walk down in black in white tops thinking how class they are:roll:

Ner man. It was empty until the Mackems moved to tha Stadium Of Shite. It's alreet to live there noo like.
 
aye, been there, the owner is a massive Sunderland fan, was a few years ago now but as I recall there are some of our shirts adoring the walls...

In fairness, I never knew it was called Roker Park up until now and I work in Stotfold ffs :lol: Never knew he was a big Sunderland fan
 
Notice Board

Lights go out at Roker Park

Tonight's Ridgeon's League U18 match has had to be called off resulting from the continued problem with the floodlights.


Better not be a night game :roll:
