I CAN'T HELP FALLING IN LOVE WITH YOU ❤️‍🔥

This was the first time Sunderland have ever come from 2+ goals down to win a Premier League game, with this the 188th time they have trailed by 2+ goals in a game in the competition (D10 L177). This time feels different. #safc

Thomas Frank said Tottenham’s defeat to Chelsea “hurts massively”. But the hurt was magnified by public displays of dissent by players and fans. It is getting difficult to ignore the parallels between Frank and the ill-fated tenure of Nuno Espirito Santo. @jaydmharris.bsky.social bit.ly/4oguc8V

My #FM26 beta experience has markedly improved with the three hot fixes this week. UI is still an adjustment and will need tinkering over the next few game cycles. The 3D visuals and in and out of possession tactics are massive wins!

THAT’S IT!! WE’VE DONE IT!!!! CHELSEA 1-2 SUNDERLAND!!

Madferit!

Getting ready to see Oasis tomorrow, saw #SAFC claw their way back to a win. This is dreamland if there ever was one.

A very pleasant surprise to represent subscribers for matchday two of @theathletic.com PL predictions game. Felt compelled to back the lads to get all three points at Burnley - even if my brain is screaming draw. #SAFC

Pure. Joy. Scenes eight years in the making at the Stadium of Light after @SunderlandAFC return to the Premier League with a 3-0 win over West Ham

The noise at the Stadium of Light was immense as I heard it on the broadcast. The supporters have a huge role this year in getting the Lads over the line, and those in attendance today did more than their part. #SAFC

Strong bench especially considering all our injuries.

This morning, a long-ish read on Sheffield Wednesday. Feels like no-one's... doing anything about a situation that is getting much worse on a near daily basis. unexpecteddelirium.substack.com/p/sheffield-...

Lots of storylines with #SAFC playoff campaign. One I will fondly remember is that the earliest of the five goals we scored came in the 68th minute. Highlights energy levels and (more importantly) a never-say-die attitude that speaks volumes about the character of the players and staff.

I'VE NEVER SEEN SCENES LIKE IT

So proud of the Lads. They never quit and deserve the rewards for it. Ecstatic!!!! #SAFC

Sunderland rebooted: a different club to the one that collapsed from the Premier League into League One. Evolution based on youth and prudence. Mistakes made, but new ownership has got more right than wrong. 90 minutes from PL return. www.nytimes.com/athletic/637...

Eliezer Mayenda turned 20 yesterday and his late winner gave Sunderland a 2-1 win over Coventry City today. The youngster has lived in three countries, played in four leagues, speaks five languages and has been key to this season's promotion drive. 🔗 www.nytimes.com/athletic/633...

What’s in a name? Most of our club nicknames find roots in their colours, the industry they came from or local folklore. Sunderland however, whose moniker ‘The Black Cats’, is shrouded in mystery. Read here 👇 www.footballheritage.co.uk/the-curious-...

Ha'way the Lads! Must take this opportunity to exorcise the demons from the mid-week game. #SAFC

I remember campaigners saying a few years ago they struggled to get players involved as they would be worried about the response they’d get from the crowds. Great to see two young players like Dan Neil and Jobe modelling the new kit promoting diversity. Sport should be for everybody #SAFC

HUGE WIN ON TEESSIDE!! ✊ #MIDSUN

😍 He's here to stay. We're delighted to announce the permanent signing of Wilson Isidor, who puts pen to paper on a contract until summer 2028! ✍️

Sunlun have triggered their option to sign Wilson Isidor permanently early - done deal. He’s now under contract until summer 2028

Important for #SAFC vs. Boro on Monday

Maybe a handball was the call for Wilson's disallowed goal? Based on how long it took to chalk it off, I'm baffled as to what changed the referee's mind. #SAFC

Merry Christmas from everyone at Sunderland AFC! 🎅❤️

WHAT. A. COMEBACK.

Some finish from Roberts to rescue a point for #SAFC. Last goal from open play for him was another stoppage time equalizer at the Stadium of Light against Watford, I believe.

Sliding onto @bsky.app...

#SAFC controlled the ball both halves and pressed well on the whole. Just didn't create enough clear-cut chances to nick it nor did we take advantage of seemingly endless set pieces.

So close to 500 followers - a retweet would be hugely appreciated 😬🔴⚪️ #SAFC

Results alone do not seem to merit Cooper's sacking. Wonder if Leicester had someone waiting in the wings. Otherwise, the decision does not make much sense.

TV punditry has never been more prolific, high-profile — and divisive. But what’s expected of analysts when fans have never been more informed? In the first of a three-part series, Tim Spiers examines punditry in 2024. Is it really better than it used to be? bit.ly/3CDdP3o

@kenmcguire.bsky.social Hope you're well! Curious to know if you are planning any FM25 content once it's released?
