WE WERE WEARSIDE! Discussing the new Sunderland book, interviewing Patrick Roberts, Thomas Sorensen and more
WTF Sunderland PodcastShow Notes
Yes, it's one of those shameless promotional episodes. But WE ARE WEARSIDE is OUT NOW. The new book by our very own Graham and Peter. Authors Graham and Peter join Alex to discuss why the decided to write the book which sees them go back to 11 men who wore the red and white and ask them to tell the stories behind the moments Sunderland supporters still talk about. The triumphs, disasters, dressing rooms, managers, transfers and extraordinary incidents that never made the back pages are remembered by the people who were actually there - and what did they learn from it all? What was it like chatting about Sunderland with heroes such as Patrick Roberts, Thomas Sorensen and Stefan Schwarz, and what were the interesting stories they have from a year's worth of talking to former SAFC players? Every chapter is also part of a bigger story. Players arrive on Wearside from different countries, cultures and backgrounds, never quite knowing what they have signed up for. Some become heroes. Some divide opinion. Some are only truly understood years later. ORDER 'WE WERE WEARSIDE' HERE. Enjoyed the episode?

Next up is an away trip to wonderful city of Poznan as we head to one of the most fiercely passionate grounds in European football. But what can we expect on the pitch?
