Sunderland supporters certainly were when they stood in the dark and the pouring rain to get the latest strip.

Darkness fell - and then this happened
We think so, especially when you look at these scenes, including the night when you stood outside the West Stand - and outside the city centre branch - and waited for the club shop to open at midnight in August 2000.
In 2004, you were in a boisterous mood outside the stadium.

The happy vibe kept up in 2005 when you queued with the then manager Mick McCarthy joining you.

What lengths have you gone to to show your love for Sunderland?
