I once had a trial at Alfreton ... ... six month's suspended sentence! Seriously I did have a trial with Town and just watched a report on their preparations for the game against Walsall, live on BBC. They're a bunch of plumbers and drivers who totally believe they'll win and get a big team in the 3rd round ... ... and if they do they'll expect to win again. I think we're sometimes a bit cynical at Sunderland.
Used to live in shirland and went to watch them a few times, enjoyable with a few good pre match pints but games were dire. Also Mike Ashley and his cohorts from sports direct used to frequent the town centre and spend a fair few bob in the pubs
No pressure game. Expected to get beat so lets just give a good showing. PS, and dont give them any tkts haha
