SAFC Wall of Frame

The Stadium of Light opened in 1997, and its perimeter includes a Wall of Fame where names are engraved on bricks. For many supporters, each brick marks a memory, a celebration, or a tribute to someone they want to remember.

Search for a Loved One

This site, designed by a beloved Sunderland fan, David Bambrough, with no affiliation to Sunderland AFC, was setup to make the wall easier to navigate: quickly find names, jump to exact brick positions, open associated images, and read optional memorial stories. It aims to preserve these personal records in a searchable, accessible format.

Bricks catalogued: 33,483

Panels 8 and S5 were removed from the original layout, and those bricks are now in the curved wall designated N6.

Some newer bricks from panel 8 still remain in the original location, but there is no panel marker to indicate they are from panel 8. This section is between panels 7 and 9 where the ticket office is now located.

Your Memories Stories

Each name etched into the bricks at the Stadium of Light represents more than just words in stone — it tells the story of a life, a passion, and a deep love for the Lads.

Behind every name is someone who laughed, cheered, believed, and shared unforgettable moments with family and friends through football. We would be honoured to help keep those memories alive by inviting you to share a story, a message, or a tribute to the person behind the name. Whether it’s a cherished matchday memory, a personal reflection, or simply what Sunderland meant to them, your words will help ensure that their spirit continues to be part of the club we all love.
