In this edition of WMS, in association with ALS, the lads get together for some craic regarding all the pre-season beef. With two weeks to go until the start of the season, we'e probably looking a little thin numbers wise. Is it time to panic and run into the North Sea? However, a 6-0 win at St Mirren probably means they should just award us the League One trophy immediately and bin the season off...

In another summer special, the lads return to the studio to speak with new director Charlie Methven and new MD Tony Davison.  If we can just cath your attention away from the World Cup for one minute... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Frankie, Rory and Matthew come in for Stephen and Gareth in our very own SAFC based takeover. Fortunately, Stephen and Gareth seemed to be aware that it was actually happening. The lads will try and make sense of the massive news that dropped on Sunday afternoon. What does the future hold for our beloved Sunderland AFC? Hosted on Acast.

Surely it's only fitting that we end our disastrous season with relegation at home to Burton Albion? Plenty to look forward to this weekend then. At least the weather supposed to be nice and Chris Brown will be with us before the game. Plenty to be positive about... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A Paddy McNair wonder strike wasn't enough to keep our survival hopes alive. 1 defeat in 5, but only 1 win in 5. League One here we come! Phil Smith of The Sunderland Echo joins us as we fully accept relegation. Mind, if we beat Burton and everyone else loses... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Just when we thought we were out, they pulled us back in. And then out again. A last minute shocker against Norwich means we need to win every game until the end of the season. Easy... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A creditable draw at Leeds boosted morale slightly, but it certainly looks as though our goose is cooked. Can we finish the season strongly, regardless of which division we will occupy next year? James Hunter of The Chronicle joins us in the studio. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Well a mixed bag results wise - a win and a draw. That may have been of some use had Birmingham, the division's most out of form side, decided not to turn into Man City suddenly. Relegation looks likely, very, very likely. Inevitable even. Stephen and Michael discuss and add some light heartedness to the proceedings. Hosted on Acast.

It feels like ages since we last did a pod. but we're back to preview the Easter fixtures and we're all still miserable as sin! Hurray! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A battling point at Millwall and our recent run of decent performances continued, but we need points on the board at this stage. Next up are Aston Villa on Tuesday night and we need to find a way to win it. We'll talk about all that and more with BBC Radio Newcastle's Nick Barnes. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A decent result for Sunderland after a mad game against Middlesbrough. There have been positives over the last couple of games, but only a single point. Is it too little too late for us? Lee Howey joins the lads in the studio. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Phil Smith of the Sunderland Echo joins the lads in the studio to discuss absolutely everything that's happened on and off the field this week. And there's a lot.   We discuss our attempt at a Q&A that is no longer happening, petitions, Sunderland being available for free to some poor, unwitting soul and the football. Though there's no real point in discussing defeat again, is there? Host...

Another week, another defeat. Sunderland failed to capitalise on the momentum gained from Bristanbul, crashing out once more in the latest of our first half horror shows. Now we've somehow got to get ourselves sorted out and go to Bolton. Surely this is the mustest of must win games? We talk about all that...AND MORE AND THAT. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's an all WMS affair tonight as Gareth, Michael Lough and Matthew Keeling preview Saturday's massive clash with Brentford at the Stadium of Light. Can we build on 'Bristanbul'? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
