Anth Gair says… Hark back to the era where teams ‘gelling’ was a thing. This can only be good news for us as a side, as this will be their first pre-season together. I know, it’s not always as straightforward as that, but I’m holding out hope that some of the young lads will kick […]
August 18, 2001, saw Sunderland kick off their Premier League campaign in style with a 1-0 victory at home to Ipswich Town. Peter Reid’s side were fresh from a seventh-place finish in the previous campaign, narrowly missing out on a UEFA Cup spot, and there was genuine optimism that they could push on again. Over […]

It was August 19, 2022, a sultry summer’s evening on the banks of the Wear, and there was an air of intrigue as we trooped to the Stadium of Light to witness what we all hoped would be a comfortable home victory over perennial Championship strugglers Rotherham United. Despite a good start to the season […]
It’s fair to say Bob Stokoe had an immediate impact when he arrived on Wearside in December 1972. Within nine months, the former Newcastle United player had claimed the FA Cup for Sunderland and navigated our first-ever game in a European competition – not a bad start.

After several months of talks and back-and-forth meetings, it appears Sunderland have finally managed to thrash out a deal with Toulouse for their star left-back Dayann Methalie that works for all parties.
