How Wearside looked the last time Sunderland opened the season with back-to-back league wins

Haway the Lads! Sunderland are off to a storming start in the league.

And what better way to celebrate than to look back to another year when the Black Cats began a campaign with brilliant victories.

It was 1980 and the team began with a 3-1 win over Everton before travelling to Manchester City where they won 4-0.

Remember it? Here’s a chance to refresh your memory of that year with a look at the other activities going on in and around Sunderland.

So whether it was a bike safety campaign in Pennywell or a Wild West show in Washington, we have it all. Take a look.
