And me! Great to see legends like Elliott, Rowell, Arnott, Cummings and Robson again. Shaun Elliott was my favourite player from this era when speedy, cultured defenders were as rare as hen’s teeth.
@@andrewc4612 think he went to you from us ( Bolton) after a move to Derby fell through from memory. SAFC having his mate Barry Siddall from us a few seasons earlier probably swung it. I was only little and gutted at the time. Hero for the big headers and tackles! Youre right too. 43 years. Wow.
Magnificent Roker Park in all it’s glory.
One of my favourite memories of Roker Park. My favourite player getting his first goal for 18 months after a serious injury
Ncie to see players not taking 5 hours celebrating a goal like they do nowadays!!
Sunderland took 8000 to Leeds that year. We gave Leeds a section holding 2500and it was not full
Nice to get one over on "old foes" Leeds, and at the same time end a run of three straight home defeats.
I was there in the Roker End.
I was there in the fullwell end
Me too, my usual Roker Park "haunt".

Big Sam turning out for Sunderland too
Guess that shows how long ago it was! Forty-three years, OMG, just where does time go to?
