SAFCBlog Sunday Sermon, (Live from Positively 4th Street)
Positivity Panthers 0 vs Negative Nomads 4 (Short 18, Donald, 26, Methvren 60, Storey 72) I thought we’d win yesterday, on the balance of play we should have won the game, it ended up as a draw, not the result…
SAFCBlog 0 vs SAFCVlog 1, (S. Hawkins, 22)
And we’re off……. Day 1 of our Championship campaign. I normally do my match reviews the day after the game. Nowadays we’re not allowed to go to the match, so match reports are being brought to you in a digital…

It’ll be emotional……..
“Let’s fucking do this….. Let’s go to work ⚽️“ Strange Days….. Season starts today, it’s different though – more different than ever before. But…. it’s football and it’s Sunderland. I’ve no idea what lies ahead on and off the pitch,…
All Aboard the Gus Bus
Gus Poyet PDC gone, we welcome Gus as the new Sunderland manager. Quite early on in his tenure, we are playing Southampton ~ the defenders start passing the ball to each other, an unnerved crowd are understandably edgy. Moving forward,…
SAFCBlog Farcical Friday Fun Factory
The primary focus of this blog is to look at the Matchday experience, both building up to it and reviewing it. SAFCBlog should be as excited as Pip Schofield the night before the new clipboard carrying trainees start at This…
