    Twice a year
    Normally twice a year, I publish this, but I blew it this year , but never mind lets show it anyway, some of you folks have seen this before, but this is for the folks who have not.

    as I said its history, I never made it up, but its , where we come from, hope you all take it in the spirit intended, no malice intended, just who we are and evolved from.

    I had page not found but found it on the SAFC board. Good post Billy and a good read. Quite interesting to say the least.

    yeah quite interesting, thinks it sad how people can turn down something as lovely as bacon just because its the same colours as Sunderland.

    The problem we have is, this would be a huge story were it to be Man City v Man Utd and everyone would know of it, there would be stories on SSN before every derby about it. However, since neither of us are up there in the league, it is just seen as another derby, and the two teams are only classed as rivals by outsiders because of our close location.

    going Back to my own board, hope you all learned something, as I do twice a year, will try faithfully, to publish this on OUR cup final days, the derbys, and if theres a god above, a real fa cup final, nearly 63 , for **** sake give me the ultimate, dont want a scouse team, porridgegobblin managed team, we all know
    who and where we want the action, what a piss up, few broken dreams and jaws Im sure, what a train ride home that would be for the flatties, and could London deal with us, am sure the publicans might mak a couple of shillins anyway, ta for your time hope you enjoyed and learned.
    as i said, Iearn every time.

    Good post, alot of people on here are probably already aware of that but it's a message about an important and relevant history that maybe a lot of younger folk would do well to take notice of.

    I just posted this on another thread but it's totally relevant...

    "Basically, if you can't let mutual appreciation for the sake of football, or perhaps more importantly in this case North East football, transcend local rivalry and boundaries then you cease to be a football fan and become a rival hater. Alot of these people exist on both sides but I tend not to want anything to do with them.

    I'd rather befriend a spot on Sunderland supporter than a tosser who happens to support Newcastle. Sounds obvious but I have come across people like this before, sad as it sounds."
