Here is a statistic the media missed after Southampton v Sunderland (8-0) refereed by Andre Marriner (Solihull) on Saturday 18^thOctober 2014.

Sunderland’s last 8-0 defeat was on Saturday 25^th September 1982 : Watford v Sunderland (8-0) refereed by Vic Callow (Solihull).

Both referees from Solihull.

And, incidentally, both are Solihull RA committee members.
