The poor start to the season goes as we fall to defeat against a very average looking Preston North End side. So what better way to go on than to drag a brand new American support for the lads to share the misery that is the start of the season.
Who is to blame for the season's poor start? Ownership for not signing a striker, manager for not starting our only healthy striker or is it down to the players for not performing to their ability? We'll talk about this and more today. -
Hot on the heels of the tour of the USA and the rest of the friendlies we are back with a new season preview. Will we sign a striker, can Sean tell his arse from his elbow, where will we finish and what does progress on the field look like.

Episodes manquant?

It's a new season at the Stadium of Light, after a positive pre-season in the USA and an encouraging result against against top flight Spanish opposition expectations were almost high going into the game. Unfortunately being Sunderland that wasn't to be and Ipswich went back with three points in their webbed fingers.
I sat down with Albuquerque resident and co-commentator for New Mexico United Chris Hurst to talk about the game, life in America and all things Sunderland as they stand. -
The last day of the season doesn't get much crazier than this. All hopes are gone at half time, then before you know it we are in with a shout and then... in typical Sunderland style we make the play-offs.
So I sat down with Wyoming resident and returning guest Anthony Stephenson to go over what was an absolutely manic day. Still sitting here wondering how we managed it after the Watford game.
Sit back and enjoy (if you can) as we look at the game and the play-offs against Luton Town and who knows who else. -
Warning... Language gets a bit salty... Well this team never ceases to amaze me, and so here we are still in the hunt for a play-off berth with just two games to go. Podcast regular Sean Coxon joins me again as we discuss an absolutely first class performance by the lads combined with the worry and excitement for what could lie in store for the rest of the season. Sit back and enjoy and please don't mind the swearing!

Slightly delayed because the US and Canada haven't the decency to provide an Easter Monday Bank Holiday. This episode I sit down with Justin again and we go over the Hull & Cardiff games.
We discuss our defensive frailty, inability at times to put teams to the sword and revel in Joffy breaking his scoring duck. We also go on to talk about the remaining fixtures, the possibility of promotion via the play offs and the upcoming USA tour. -
This week we talk with Michigan native Michael Krogh and how an afternoon watching Netflix ruined, erm I mean changed his sporting life forever. We talk about the superb performance against a rampant Burnley side as well as player performances before we wander off on a tangent.
-
We're back!!!
This week sees the return of David Colquhoun who lives in Maryland. We have a great chat about the merits of a hard fought draw against Luton Town, how we think Gelhardt is working (or not) since his signing and take a little time to put everything right in the Sunderland world. -
We're back and we were intending to talk about Sunderland's great win away to Norwich City which helped us retain the Friendly Cup. Instead we get side-tracked and talk about the wider picture for this season and what we feel is the best way forward.
-
It's taken some time to get this up and running, but we are back and delighted to be able to post this episode that we filmed with Justin after Christmas. We came so close to nailing our charity bet (curse you Amad) and we had a good chat about what we thought we needed in January... Oh how wrong we were.
Anyway, better late than never, sit back and enjoy this delayed episode. -
We are back after an extended absence... We missed the transfer window, and a whole load of matches, but we are back with Newcastle's favorite son Sean Coxon to catch up on what we missed, including a great midweek win against QPR.
-
The unusual Friday night game ended up in a win for Sunderland if not the greatest display we've ever put on. That said we have a first time guest in the form of David Colquhoun, David is originally from Sheffield and currently finds himself in Maryland via Sunderland Uni.
Tonight I talk with him about the result, the goals and where we look to be coming back from the World Cup break. -
It was an awful match to watch, but fortunately we got two for the price of one this week. SAFC NASA Branch Secretary John Ellington and fellow Pennsylvanian Pete Beck were attending the Toronto branch get together and put their enjoyment on hold to talk to the podcast today.
We talk about where it all went wrong, what we feel we need to do to fix it and everything Sunderland before they went back on the lash. -
Fresh from his attempted travel to England and his first Sunderland match (abandoned following the death of Her Majesty) Jose is back to talk about the Luton Town match, looks forward to the World Cup break and we ponder signings and the rest of the season.
Oh and there is a painful moment for me as I get cramp in my leg that I struggle to shake, but like a true professional I soldier on. -
With nearly 400 appearances for Sunderland and another 100 for Burnley who better to chat about the match this weekend than club legend Gordon Armstrong.
We wake up pod regular Sean Coxon for some match related banter and try to work out where it all went wrong this week. We talk injuries, missing players and of course we ask Gordon about his career at SAFC. -
NASA's Justin Warner joins us this week to review the Wigan Athletic (Sunderland Rejects) game. We cover the game, the lack of a striker, the roles our forward players are having to cover as a result and try to get to the bottom of what it is that Corry Evans actually does for the team.
-
We're back... International breaks and pneumonia are clear and we are back with another episode of your favorite US based Sunderland AFC content.
In this episode, Sean Coxon is back and better than ever as we discuss the 0-0 draws against Preston and Blackpool and ponder whether we should have signed a third striker after all. We look with (guarded) optimism at the rest of the calendar year and look to the transfer window in January.
Sit tight and enjoy. -
Oh dear... Where to begin...
We welcome back Wyoming resident Anth Stephenson to discuss the awful game against Middlesbrough, discussing where it all went wrong, how much of it was Corry Evans fault and where we go from here.
Join us as we deep dive into this latest woeful performance and hope its just a blip in an otherwise decent season.
Oh and Middlesbrough is not a derby game. -
Well, we didn't expect to have to do one of these this season. Just when you think everything is going well, Sunderland manage to well and truly Sunderland a situation. We talk about the betrayal of Alex Neil, why he chose Stoke and what is next for Sunderland (please not Tony Mowbray).
We even liken the next possible Sunderland manager to regrettable sexual exploits.
Oh and we even manage to cover the Norwich game. -
Season one favorite and NASA's resident Geordie stops by after the Bristol City game. We sit down and talk about a great win for the lads and look to the future with the hope that it is bright. Who will we bring in before the end of the transfer window and where will we finish? We discuss it all.
