Bob Dylan’s Zimmerman Blues revisisted. Sunderland played Sacramento Republic and lost (1-0) in the first of three games in the trip our west.
And the Zimmerman in question, given a dose of the blues after seeing the Lads go down to admittedly better prepared opponents, was Eve, wife of Sunderland AFC’s owner, Ellis Short.
Thanks to Degsy – otherwise known as Derek Aspinall, who runs Sunderland AFC North American Supporters’ Association (see footnote for contact details), the branch for fans in the United States and Canada – Salut! Sunderland brings you the first of a series of reports from the Lads’ three-match pre-season tour. Here we introduce Paul Pattison, who will be at tonight’s match versus Sacramento Republic (it’s 8pm local time but they’re eight hours behind the UK; it’s still Monday night, for heaven’s sake, as I write after breakfast on Tuesday!).
