Story shared by visitors

Another brick that was purchased as a Christmas present in 1997. Sadly passed away on 19th December 2021, after recently buying a season ticket in the North Stand following on from a convesation at his Father in Law’s wake, as we missed going to the match. A man of many words and lover of a good solid Goalkeeper! Now a member of the Sunderland Heaven Branch
