    Met Comm in Thailand when he was working there, you're right Makemstine Roger, a lovely bloke very easy to get on with. Even had my wife joking along especially when he talked her into going to a topless bar.

    i remember comm telling me an Billy that story bit hazy now, along with the sausage one ,Billy was a little bugger for getting banned mainly from the mags board he hated Alberts Chippy with a vengeance but Cyprus Syd was always decent with him.

    Sid was a great bloke. I hope he's keeping well. Gave a lot to this place if I remember rightly.

    I believe I stormed off from Sundermad early on for **** knows what reason.

    I like Comm and Tel and they kept the board ticking over when it was really really quiet a few years back, albeit about 5% of their posts were Sunderland related. They seem to have found solace in the Prem board which is fair enough.

    I think Syd simply lost interest after a few drifted away and of course he had other far more important issues to deal with, particularly his partner who was very ill.
    I always found it a bit like your favourite pub, you could pop in occasionally and you knew who would be there.
    It was frequented by a fair number of 'older' fans like myself and unfortunately numbers took a natural hit and it was thanks to Syd's efforts that it lasted so long.
