That's religion for you.....

Sunderland is a well-supported club, but they've never really had that aura about them, at least at this level and above.

Correct. They were disgraceful.
Up to then, I quite liked Sunderland ever since they beat Leeds in the FA Cup Final back in 1973

Leeds have taffy fans because they used to win things
It would be the same for Sunderland
Man City are beginning to develop plastic supporters clubs in Cornwall
As would Sunderland

Newcastle fans have always been a bit insufferable to me.
Geordies are great I've worked there and went to a load of mid-week games, good people, and decent fans.
