My first ever match on my 6th birthday. A very cold Tuesday night. Remember very little other than my sister asking me to cheer for Phill Gray and a Sunderland player having a shot flash over the bar at the Sunderland end. What ever happened that night it had me hooked! Team: Chamberlain Kubicki Ord Ball Martin Gray Melville Owers Russell Phill Gray Martin Smith Atkinson Sub: Norman Goodman Armstrong

My first ever SAFC game on my 6th Birthday. I remember very little of the evening other than my sister asking me to cheer for Phil Gray (who would become my favourite player), it been very cold and a Sunderland player having a shot flash over the bar. I do know that that night got me hooked and was the start of a love supreme. Team: Chamberlain Kubicki Ord Ball Martin Gray Melville Owers Russell P Gray Smith Atkinson Subs: Howey Norman Armstrong
