Sad to hear of the passing of a genuine legend of a bygone age. Sunderland's player of the century.
I should add he used to do a great impression of the generic Sunderland fan who used to want Charlie to boot it into the crowd.One of my Grandad’s favourites. He was from near Durham and grew up in the era pre-hooliganism when it was ok to like all north east clubs.
Probably frequented St James, Roker and Ayresome in equal measures throughout his life. Used to love hearing the stories about Charlie Hurley, Len Shackleton (and others).
