Roy may face a messy Wearside divorce

LAST weekend saw a football first. I’ve had lots of pals get married during the football season, but I’ve always picked the match ahead of the wedding.

Generally, Sunderland have let me down.

And I’ve fallen out with mates by watching us draw at Port Vale (Patrick and Susan, August 1995), alienated my family in a miserable away trip when losing 4-0 at Reading (David and Lucy, October 1997) and upset a mate whilst watching us being out-muscled at home to Oxford (Peter and Claire, April 1994).
