The aim of the website is to promote the rich and fascinating history
of Sunderland
AFC. Our motto is “A Legend Never Dies”.
Rokerpark.com
was particularly set up as a result of the current re-writing of
English footballing history before our very eyes, particularly, in our
opinion, by a
well known media outlet. You will note that football
in England didn’t start in 1992 but has its roots in 19th Century
Victorian England, although globalisation means that a love of our
club is growing in other parts of the world. For that reason we are
pleased to welcome any football fan who cares to join us.
We’d
particularly like to say hello to all the Sunderland fans from overseas
who are looking in.
In this site you will find out all about Sunderland
AFC prior to the formation of the Premier League, although with so much
to input please bear with us whilst the site is developed further.
We’re always adding stories and profiles.
We have a concentration
on promoting the little known at SAFC be they players, matches, teams
or events. Some players for example only played 1 game for us – you’ll
find out about some of them on here. If you think that there is
something we have missed, or something you would like too see
then please e-mail us
and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
The emphasis to date has been on the pre war exploits of our club, but we’re fast moving on with the story. Remember that this is not a statistics site. If you are keen on the statistical history of Sunderland AFC then please refer to
