    It does seem as if you've just picked a random creature and made it yours. I must say, it also seems as if you ripped off the design of our badge, just changed a few features but we'll not start on that one.

    The badge is very much based on the City's Coat of Arms with one or two landmarks thrown in for good measure..The origins of the clubs long association with the name 'Black Cats' is often disputed. One version is that after a run of bad results in a season somewhere around the early 19 hundreds, one of the players brought a stray black cat into the changing rooms, and the teams fortunes changed for the better. The other version is that 'The Black Cats' were the name of two of the anti-aircraft guns based in Sunderland during the 2nd World War.

    goodness - are those chaps fighting and it hasn't been sanctioned by the government? - do you think they suspected WMD's? - or do you think somene has leaked the "there's a greggs pastie been dropped in the fulwell end theory" - unfortunately I think that clip says more about you than anything else "my friend" - i think that you need to stick to You Tube as its appropriate
