Ratings from Brentford #SAFC www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Some analysis on the whistle as #SAFC are beaten heavily at Brentford. The penalty will understandably take the headlines, but they were bad across the board tonight. Game too far and Brentford excellent www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Deja vu for #SAFC - outplayed in first half and lucky to only trail by one. Enzo superb but otherwise not really at it. Sloppy and invited pressure. Credit to Brentford, v good. Real power and clever midfield pair in Janelt and Jensen.

Qs and comments for #onthewhistle tomorrow, folks? #SAFC 🔴⚪️📹

Ratings as #SAFC battle back against Spurs. Never easy to judge games of two halves like that but Mukiele great after moving to RB. And Le Fee brilliant in second half after indifferent first www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Some on the whistle analysis as #SAFC earn another very valuable point. That was a very impressive show of character after a poor first half - they deserved it www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

First 45 a pretty painful watch - #SAFC look shattered Not been able to play with any energy and Spurs have won just about every duel, second ball. Just haven't going. Looks like a tall order to get back into this one...

Any Qs or comments for #onthewhistle today folks? 🔴 ⚪ 📹

The ratings from the SoL. Thought Mukiele and Alderete superb, and a massive night for Dennis Cirkin #SAFC www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Some on the whistle analysis from the SoL. Man City made most of the running for the second half as their subs impacted the game, but what a brilliant point to to kick off 2026. Far from one-way traffic, real credit to a patched up #SAFC side www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Excellent 45 from #SAFC from disallowed City goal onwards. Dropped deep when they've needed to but managed to retain a real threat and probably had the best moments. Mukiele superb, Mayenda taking his chance and Cirkin coping well with Cherki thus far.

RLB issues early January transfer update and sets out #SAFC strategy sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

What a year of music - some of my very favourite records here if you'll indulge me?! Adrianne Lenker knocking out of the park once again - has she ever been involved in a bad record? youtu.be/GOeELtc6fqg?...

Ratings from the SoL. Little bit mixed today but thought Alderete crucial in Ballard's absence and a big day for Simon Adingra #SAFC www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Some on the whistle analysis as #SAFC are held at the SoL. Don't think you can argue that Leeds didn't deserve something. A decent side who'll stay up on this showing. Given the absences, a decent point imo www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Valuable lead in an even game for #SAFC Real quality from Xhaka and Adingra for the goal; the latter has been superb. Rodon's injury benefited Leeds in the end who dominated for a spell, but #SAFC came through and should have made it 2 at the end of the half. All to play for

Made the very best of a first Boxing Day off in a decade! Hope you and yours have all had a lovely Christmas.

Qs and comments for #onthewhistle ? 🔴⚪️

Ratings from Brighton. Solid performances all round but back four were top - Ballard especially #SAFC www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Some on the whistle analysis from Brighton. Brighton had the better of it late on but it's a very good point for #SAFC - who for the most part played well. www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

A pretty poor game so far though it opened up towards the end of the half. #SAFC will be pretty happy, I think. Really limited the hosts and had some bright moments. Those who have come in have done well. Geertruida v, v good and Adingra has been steady. Good signs.

#SAFC largely as we expected as we start the AFCON phase of the season. Hume to LB, Geertruida (we think) into midfield. Adingra off the left, and Chris Rigg gets the nod on the right (we think!). Big chance for those two to make a real impact.

Barnesy and I got together to have a chat about an incredible 2025 following #SAFC Hope you enjoy! Huge thanks to the legends at the Museum Vaults for having us and thanks everyone for supporting #onthewhistle this year. Live show hopefully be back soon! youtu.be/YSl1AxAwzxA

Ratings from the SoL #SAFC www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Analysis from the SoL - how #SAFC won the Wear-Tyne derby www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

First 45 not a classic Wear-Tyne derby.. #SAFC had the best moments when Thiaw nearly put one in his own net & Ballard nodded one over bar. Visitors largely sat off & looked to play on break. So far, no one really produced much quality. Think #SAFC will be happy enough atm

RIP Gary Rowell. A fine player and one of the best people you could ever hope to meet. Sunderland won't be the same without you A small tribute to an immense man www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...

Struggling to process Gary's death. He was the nicest man, who had time for everyone. He loved Sunderland so much. Sing his name loud tomorrow, it made him so happy. He'll be kicking every ball with us x

RLB: I'm absolutely convinced Adingra will be a great player for #SAFC www.sunderlandecho.com/sport/footba...
