'There is no template for what a proper fan looks like' Ahead of International Women's Day, Wise Men Say presenter Eleanor McCabe discusses what it means to be a supporter of Sunderland in 2026

🗣️ "Sunderland does not belong to one version of a supporter. It belongs to anyone who has felt their stomach drop at a late concession and still come back the following week."

⚽️ MONDAY POD/LEEDS PREVIEW

Before whispers of some injury news 😬

Some moaning about a ref and praise for the performance.

While hard to say a draw wasn’t a fair result on balance of play, an unacceptable refereeing performance denies as clear a penalty as you’ll see, and a red card.

After the ref’s performance against Fulham, has there ever been more of a “hold my beer moment”?

PREVIEW | BOURNEMOUTH (A) Richard Easterbrook and Jimmy Reay look ahead at Sunderland's trip to Bournemouth where Regis Le Bris has a raft of injuries to contend with.

If Karl Robinson was still manager, he’d have phoned the bizzies.

#SAFC beat Oxford 1-0. A bit crack from the pub.

#SAFC did well there to withstand pressure from a side so crap that they just tried to bulldoze through. It can catch you out.

- Stonewall penalty

- Not close to a red card for Le Fee

- Clear foul for their “goal” that Roefs didn’t try and save

- O’Nien brilliant

How has Mills not been booked yet? Ran around fouling people all game.

Absolutely pathetic comms by the way. Desperate to try and find controversy in every decision that goes in our favour. They’re running around like headless chickens fouling our players. Time and time again.

My god I’d forgot all about how absolutely tinpot Oxford and their fans are.

Stephen, Gareth and Jonathan react to the news of Kristjaan Speakman's departure, the Liverpool defeat and the Oxford match

I thought #SAFC played with a fear I’ve not seen all season at home. As soon as Liverpool scored, they relaxed and started to play a bit, almost like a weight had been lifted. The crowd could sense it all too, really odd.
