I remember the indian cry.

I also remember a young las in the Gallowgate, below the scoreboard would always stand up on a barrier and starting somgs off.  I remember someone telling me years later he was killed at a Swindon away game.

That lad was called Darren and he was killed in London by I think a group of Welsh Rugby fans.

 

Edit : Wigan Rugby fans

I remember the Indian War Cry. :cool: Also remember a bloke who sat in the Corner of the East Stand who was christened 'Kenny Everett', because he had dark hair and a beard. Used to start the singing off in that part of the East Stand and I remember watching him go crackers at the Hull game, back in 1991 when Sunderland were confirmed relegated. :) :D

 

I also remember a bloke called 'Norman' who got up on the barriers in the corner, to start the songs off. Had a baldy head and wore dungarees! :D Also a kid who was christened 'Oxy 10', when I shifted to the scoreboard. He had really bad acne, but wasn't frightened to start the singing off. :)

 

Memories!

CP40  I remember the war cry, from when dad first started taking me back in 81/82. :cool: Used to meet some real characters on the terraces. I was the lad no-one liked to be stood behind, due to being so tall (6'8) :D Was once told, that I could be spotted in the Scoreboard, from the Leazes End. :o :D

That's impossible. Football didn't start until 1992 marra. Apparently.

Just reading the comments on that vid and "Tonto's" son said 2 years ago that he still has a season ticket. Shame he doesn't do the warcry anymore.

 

He probably ruined his vocal chords.  :lol:

Big Geordie mate , I've admitted to being born amongst them but you have no idea how wrong you are by calling me red and white. Your avatar photo.... David Kelly , there's a 99% chance I was at that game. No mate , all my family are / were black & white and always will be. But no matter , the Internet society will decide for itself .

 

Which game was big Geordies pic taken at then????

From NUFC.com's Rotherham match report.

 

"The closeness and newness of the venue attracted a noticeably older away clientele (including the return of the Indian war crier), in stark contrast to what had the feeling of a school trip to the Derby County game last month."

Yep, if you were there you'll remember that game. That pic was in a lot of papers.
