Haway The Podcast – Sunderland AFC

It's been fun to talk abut our last fixture for a while, but it's good to be talking about the next one as the Lads entertain crisis club Tottenham Hotspur this weekend at the Stadium of Light! So we caught up with Elias Burke from The Athletic to find out just what the hell is going on in North London! On today's show... How boring was Norway's game during the break?! Have Spurs been on the slide...

The recent publication of the Football Supporter Association's VAR survey caused shockwaves and had the Premier League scampering around to quell the noise, so Gav & Jonny caught up with Sunderland season card holder and the FSA's Head of Comms Michael Brunskill for a chat about loads of the things we like to chunter on about here on the pod! On today's show... Are Sunderland's tickets priced fair...

With 21 points to play fo...

The club recently announced the introduction of Legends' Way outside the ground – recognising and commemorating some of Sunderland AFC's club legends. The club put out a shortlist of 43 names – and with only 14 stones available, it's a tough choice to pick who should be honoured, and who should miss out! So, Martin, Kelvin and Andrew got together to try to whittle that list down to 14 – and there'...

Welcome to another episode of On This Week, as we take a look back at some of the key – and some of the not so key – events to have taken place on this week in the history of Sunderland AFC.

Supporting Sunderland is always a rollercoaster but if you think of where we were just twelve months ago it's been some ride!

How much do we agree? Why did they mean more to us? What does it mean long term? Ballard or...

We continue where we left off in part one, and Martin & Jonny try once again to put their pet hates into Room 101 if they can convince Chris to put them in part two of our Room 101! On today's show... Martin comes out with a pretty controversial pick! Should managers get zero sympathy when they're sacked?! Does it annoy you when defenders win free-kicks?! How do we fix players going down injured?!...

We haven't attempted to put our pet hates into Room 101 for a while so Martin & Jonny fire up their inner grumpiness and try and convince Chris to put things that annoy them in part one of our Room 101! On today's show... Who was Martin's favourite host of Room 101?! How tough was it to pick their top things that annoy them?! Does it annoy you that officials don't know when the ball is out?
