Glad to hear you are on the mend Eastie, bet you are pleased it's over too! I've had a few days off ill with Bronchitis, you know what the weather is like up here! Factory roller door was jammed open for a week while we had the snow, the factory door looks straight down the River Wear at the Stadium of Light, so the cold wind blowing in from the North Sea almost cut me in two. Have been on Anti-Biotics and Steroids for two weeks, just came off the Steroids today, though i have an inhaler which is very much needed at the minute. Doctor doesn't believe that i don't smoke?

Aye, that 4v0 was about as comprehensive a drubbing as i can remember us ever getting. We've lost by considerably larger margins but not been dominated like we were that day. Steve McMahon owned every inch of Roker in that game, he was like a mythical Greek God! Awesome to watch, so much so i couldn't even be bitter about the defeat. That's how impressive Villa were on the day ....... the b@st@rds!  (joking!)

Not many of us villa fans there that day in the uncovered end behind the goal- the wind blowing in from the sea and the pouring rain too were not exactly welcome.

I know too well what winters can be like after my 3 year stint in hartlepool and having to climb out the window to clear the snow from the door once - wonderful people and place and the north east will always be special to me.

Best wishes davey , hope we get chance to have a few pints next season if we both stay up !

Ha ha, aye the old Roker End. If you could handle the cold NE wind in there you could have walked about Siberia in shorts and a tee shirt no bother, lol! Let's hope we both stay up. I know there's plenty on here would like to see us go due to MON and their dislike of him, but at the risk of sounding a tad arrogant, i'd rather see two other's go than us. I'll certainly take you up on the beers regardless mate! If the job situation doesn't resolve itself soon, we've talked about moving down towards Worcester where my partner Amanda originates, the Malvern Hills looks favourable. I'll give you a shout whenever we get the chance to get down that way again.

Good to have Davey back. My only trip to Roker Park was our 3-1 win in 1991 when Cascarino got a couple. That was when both clubs were in a relegation battle too. I think Cascarino had some history with Sunderland from a play off tie when he was with Gillingham. I seem to remember him getting some stick that day.

The "Ice Cream Man" as Jackie Charlton used to call him! Aye Damo, Cascarino helped put us into the old 3rd Division for our first and only ever time after the shambolic Lawrie Mackem-enemy reign.
