Don’t take this place so seriously. The only people bothered aren’t worth bothering with.

Take the little bit of stick you’ll get then it’ll all be forgotten about.

Sincere apologies to all as I was wrong (was not a wind up) and as a result I feel I must fall on my sword, come off here and delete my account.
Best wishes to all the decent posters on here.

Absolutely spot on. I don't think it's delusional or out of touch to say our fan-base is top-tier, especially given what we have put up with over the years.

If you are a Sunderland supporter then more often than not you live and breathe Sunderland, we don't really attract the casual crowd. In terms of "outsiders", Quinn talked about it getting "under your skin" and I was always cynical about what that really means......why us and not, Forest/Villa/Leeds/etc/etc?. I honestly think it's the people and how much WE care.

For example: I'm getting up at 6am to go to a bar with four Americans with no prior connection to the UK and the bloke who owns the place and started following us under Keane/Drumavilla (he's from Dublin). We are all getting up early to watch a league one game, against Accrington Stanley, in a bar that shows Portland Timbers, Ireland (football and Rugby), Red Sox and Sunderland pretty much exclusively.

As depressing as it is most of the time, we're part of something special.

I think this kinda fit with what SD was saying too on a podcast some time back when he explaimed he couldnt live up here full time as it was simply to intense, i took it & think he ment us & how much we live, breath this club.

......if hes now going to be full time? presume he will be up here full time ish & find out

No need to delete your account mate and I know all the decent people on here will say exactly the same thing. You were done yourself, no shame in that.

Stay on and see this journey through to it's amazing conclusion.
