my user name was influenced by one of the greatest forwards to ever play for the club. Frank Worthington
Self explanatory - Club/Area I live in, also have it printed on the back of my shirt when I'm over at the SOL but have yet to have anyone ask about 606.
I adopted my monicker as a tribute to Argus, the match reporter for the Echo in the 50's. My mother was a cleaner for the family at his home in Whitburn and I met him on several occasions as a kid. At the time, we didn't have a telly, just Sports Report on a Saturday afternoon and I thought he was the most informed footballing person on earth.
Syd, I also named my shops after him. It's fair to say they have achieved a bit more success than my club though.
Steed, top player and heard he'd given up the ciggies to try and last 90 mins, hence name. Was bazwarnesjumpers on 606.
Anyone that went to Roker park on a regular basis should know where the Blind Corner was, at the right hand side of the Roker End , so called because when there was a full house, if you were unfortunate enough to be there you could only see half of the pitch. I first experienced it in the famous draw against Spurs in the 6th round of the cup in 1961 I think it was , the crowd was about 61,000 , that was the game that the Spurs captain Danny Blanchflower said that the Roker Roar was the loudest thing he'd ever heard . I managed to see the Sunderland goal scored by Willie McFeat and never went back to the Blind Corner again.
