Aye back soon enough, been to bootham crescent it's mossy corrugated roof, police horse infested side terraces....at the time you miss the importance of meeting fellow football supporters, who are as passionate about their team and local pride
Love hearing this at games. Like 'Abide With Me' at Wembley, it's spine tingling when sung by a crowd. Heard Hull sing it at Anfield last term, didn't realise you Mackems sang it as well. Make sure you get a round of it in next term.
I'm from Croatia and big fan of elvis, and i thik that's amazing, i support Liverpool but after L'pool sunderland is my favourite english club, keep on rockin =)
after this match at station having a beer hull fans said what the feeeck you lot drink before matches as to the song well sunderland sandies durham viilages pityakers gateshead jarra hebburn tyne valley ashington billingham stockton consett stanley blaydon newcastle reds many more all as one person singing for wor team the team wherever we are from however we talk the team we fight breath for until the light goes out whenever that day comes ..
Need the Mackems back in the top flight, especially now Newcastle have decided they're bad sportswashing meffs. You lot always made some good noise on Anfield Rd.
@Scottk95 Well if you will something to fail it will. However if you're positive and make a go of it it will be a success. If the club are pushing it as a "lively singing section" they're not going to expect people to sit down. You either move and make it work or you remain in the same place and fail to help improve the atmosphere within the ground. Your call. I know what I'm doing.
Thank You Sir, I don't know what it is but the Hull & S/land fans always seem to get on really well having a good crack on & a few beers everytime I've been home & away to the games
@Scottk95 It's not going to happen mate but that doesn't matter. The south stand is going to be for people intent on chanting regardless of what the score is. Lots of colour and new songs regularly.
I was there that day, what an atmosphere. Best away following in the country bar none considering the crap we watched before Poyet took over. #STID #KTF #SGB
Brilliant lads ! Great atmosphere as usual. Like this every game in the South West Corner, When the away fans get moved the North Stand Upper we will have the whole of the South Stand joined with us. Everyone in the South West Corner stay there and don't move. SWC FOR EVER !
I think I was at the game the song originated it was Sheffield United away in 1976/7 there was a comeback of teadboys and punks and the sund/land lads were singing aginst each other and the teddy boys started wise men . by the way on the way out we got ambushed by Sheff we'd as well
I remember back in the 1970's going to Boothbury Park with the corrugated roof, asbestos? same spirit alive from durham coalmining Sunderland lads/pals
@magnet101 Yeah but what if not everyone moves from SWC to South Stand. Then you's will be seperated from SWC and it wont be as good and not everyone will stand up there cos all the boring ones from other parts of the stadium will sit down and be quiet
Much respect from the U.S...I'm a big supporter of the Columbus Crew (as indicated in my picture). A few weeks ago, the scoreboard literally caught on fire and the supporter section provided the soundtrack for the match (including the national anthem). Up 3 nil against our rival D.C. United, in the 85th minute, we broke out into this chant (I can't help...falling in love with Crew...Columbus...Columbus). Yanks love football, too : )
thank you relegated it is then. you should know more about that , having been relegated many many many times. local club Antwerp 90 per cent owned by Mancherster United. so Man U is my local. sunderland the shithole of the world.
