MEMORIES of Sunderland's FA Cup triumph in 1973 are on display as the city paid tribute to the architect of the club's success.
Memorabilia from the sensational 1-0 defeat of Leeds United - as well as the club's previous FA Cup victory in 1937 - is on display at the City Library and Arts Centre, in Fawcett.
The exhibition, which will run until the end of the month, was brought forward to coincide with yesterday's memorial service to manager Bob Stokoe, manager of the 1973 team.
The exhibition, which was due to start later in the year, includes newspaper cuttings, pictures of crowd scenes, photographs of the goals, ticket stubs, match programmes, fans' regalia, and commemorative items produced to mark both victories.
