Sunderland
-
Nickname: Sunderland (they are not necessarily very imaginative up north)
-
Most notorious person. Niall Quinn who has a reputation as a thoroughly nice guy. He gave all his testimonial money to charity, he flew Sunderland fans back to England when they got stuck (at his own expense) and he just seems a decent bloke.
-
Ownership: Presumably mostly Niall Quinn, so Irish (which is to say, “foreign”)
-
Best known song: Sorry, but I couldn’t understand a single word anyone said to me.
-
Most obvious tactics: Leave the maniac killer in the manager’s office. Seems to have improved since they tried to kill Abu Diaby.
-
Greatest claim to fame: They have a big stadium named after a district in Benfica for reasons that I have never understood.
