The Gloaters seaside triathlon nufc
At the turn of last year, I was asked by some of my mates if I could use my contacts to set up a group of old boys of Newcastle United fans who attended the 1987 Sunderland v Gillingham play-off at Roker Park, which resulted in the mackems relegated to the Third Division.
As I have mentioned before, Starship were top of the charts with ‘Nothing’s gonna stop us’, and lads from all over Tyneside descended on Roker to swell the gate and hopefully take the proverbial back in 1987. Recently we have been looking towards turning the Gloaters into a more benevolent institution, so this last weekend has seen us partake in our first real charitable event.We had been collecting sponsorship money for the events that began on Saturday.Butch, Jimbo, Big Andy, Basher, Ashington Mick and Ellas with a combined age of roughly 350 years ,swam an amazing 180 lengths between them.
Yesterday, the triathlon was completed, when the lads each completed a walk from Tynemouth outdoor pool, along the beach to Cullercoats and back to the Stuffed Dog.
