I love this photo of the little lad walking behind his Sunderland heroes
This photo might be 70 years old but it captures the feelings of every young Sunderland fan.
It shows a little boy who spotted his SAFC heroes walking along the promenade on a cold January day.
Watching his heroes
The undated photo shows the dapper little lad, bucket in hand, at Seaburn promenade behind Tommy Wright, George Aitken and Arthur Wright.
Tell us if you know who it is.
And as an extra reminder, here are some more photos from the same era
Shack on the terraces
They show;
Ken Chisholm, Ted Purdon and Len Shackleton doing stamina building work on the terraces.
The players in the dressing room before they get down to training.
A spot of hurdles for a group of Sunderland players.
Over to you for answers
And goalmouth action during a training session.
