That probably makes the 1980s your era, and you’ll have memories of these Sunderland favourites from 40 years ago. Yes! 40 years ago.
Where has the time gone. More importantly, let’s celebrate the era of shoulder pads, leg warmers and plenty of neon.
It’s the era of Top Rank, Sirocco and much more besides. Get your shell suit on and get back to the 80s.
