The Tifo


Niall Quinn’s disco pants killed the worm as you can only see the top half of John Lambton. Let’s see the Chinese translate that! FTM
 
They invented a font now 🙈🙈😂😂
Replies are class on there :lol: :lol:
I’ve seen it everywhere. Seen a few bellends talking about St. George and right wing and other ignorant bollocks but on the whole it’s loved. Trying to explain the worm to the locals isn’t easy like
"Hello Mackems...I hear you're far-right now."

It has more to do with Sunderland than the Angel of the North has to do with Newcastle!

Seriously, I hope club marketing team are reading this. Sunderland has always had good support outside of the city and Sunderland historically was in County Durham (which was from the North Bank of the Tees to the South bank of the Tyne)

We should play on that a lot on our marketing and in displays/shirts. If done right, and if we get things right on the pitch thats a powerful fanbase to tap into in the future
We are all united by the river Wear which flows through county Durham, everyone living around the wear should support Sunderland. The Tyne does not flow through county Durham, in fact it denotes the boundary between Durham and Northumberland. Everyone south of the Tyne should support Sunderland. Even Gateshead was part of county Durham.

They messed everything up by coming up with this tyne and wear lark.

For anyone who hasn’t seen it - or wants a point of reference to educate the clueless - here’s the battle with the Worm from Bryan Talbot’s version of the story in Alice in Sunderland.

Note the nice little touch at the end where Sir John Lambton volleys its head into the Wear. Carlos Edwards would have been proud of that shot.
 
I enjoy telling Mag colleagues and friends this, if they’ve been born in County Durham. They accuse me of hypocrisy cos I was born in North Tyneside and support the lads. I then remind them that my dad is from Washington, and anyone with close family from Washington who doesn’t support Sunderland is an even bigger wrongun than a County Durham Mag. Those audacious enough to live there are all essentially hostile settlers in Sunderland FC’s beautiful homeland.
Sunderland ‘FC’ … FFS 🤦
