We have officially opened membership registration for SAFC USA! To become an official member of our supporters group, simply fill out the registration form and that’s it. Best of all, it’s free! We have a lot of great ideas in store for the future, but the first step is to find out how many supporters there are actually in the United States. So spread the word! We have also assembled a membership map that will be updated with city locations of all members as they join. This map can always be found on our membership page on our official website. Thanks for all of your support so far!
There are two of us here in Indy. My mate however doesn't do much on the computer, so I can't get him to join on here. I have another mate who is a Spurs fan, but says if they sell Niko to Sunderland he will also follow Sunderland. I've tried to make him see the error of his Spurs ways. Not even the riot in Tottenham can sway him, alas!
I love Sunderland! They're definitely my 2nd favorite English club (if that's allowed ). Seb's goal last week was amazing. I was at the pub here in Seattle at 7 AM to watch that match...definitely worth it. Looking forward this Saturday when they kick Newcastle's @$$!!! I'm just hoping to find a good stream somewhere. It doesn't look like FoxSoccer.tv has it listed on their schedule at this point.

Re: Vote for the official logo of SAFC USA I would like to cast my vote for the blue shield (#4). I love the how we could incorporate red white AND blue into the retro badge, and the SAFCSA black cat. You were right, Nathan, that black cat is awesome!
Re: Vote for the official logo of SAFC USA To be honest, I think we should leave the badge and crest alone........Its their team and their city and country......I think we should put up the Sunderland crest with the England and American flag crossed behind it, as in we support SAFC
Re: Vote for the official logo of SAFC USA While I do agree with you here, it just won't be very feasible in the long run. Right now we are small and nobody really cares about what we do, but as we grow there would be some form of legality arising out of the use of the official club crest. This would be particularly tricky if we try to develop shirts, scarves, etc... Hope that helps explain the rationale behind our actions.
Re: Vote for the official logo of SAFC USA I just think it would be naive to take their badge and crest and Americanize it......There is a history behind those items and there should be some respect given, is all. To be honest, I can see it being taken the wrong way, I think some more research and some across the pond advice before going forward might be a good idea.
Re: Vote for the official logo of SAFC USA OK, own up - who's the Sunlun fan in Cheyenne, WY? I thought I was the only one out here! Following the Lads for 12+ years now. I've been to that preseason match in North Carolina some years back, and a fistful of matches in England, including Michael Proctor's sparkling performance against Charlton. Keep the faith!
Areet lads n lasses! New to the site, living over in Charlotte, NC now supporting the lads from over the pond. As usual Sun'land doing it the HARD way, but would we expect anything less? We'll be fine, theres some good potential in that squad. FTM
Its pretty cool seeing fans all the way in the US of the city ive visited every week or so my entire life. Im a leeds fan but my grandparents have lived in sunderland for over 80 years and my dad was born there too.
This place seems to have died a death, anyone still running this. The webpage doesn't work. Anyway, Mackem native, transplanted in South Florida. Never seen another Sunderland fan here apart from one lad who lived in Miami and has since moved up to Ohio.
