Sunderland Greatest Games by Rob Mason

From the thousands of matches ever played by Sunderland, stretching from the club's Victorian foundation across more than 120 years to the Premier League era, here are 50 of the club's most glorious, epochal and thrilling games of all! Expertly presented in evocative historical context, and described incident-by-incident in atmospheric detail, Sunderland Greatest Games offers a terrace ticket back in time, taking in the games that sealed six top-flight titles, all four of the lads' FA Cup finals and the all-time top-flight record away win of 9-1 at Newcastle in 1908. An irresistible cast list of club legends - Niall Quinn and Bobby Gurney, Marco Gabbiadini, Raich Carter and Ian Porterfield - springs to life in a thrilling selection of cup crackers, promotion parties and hard-fought derbies. In all, a journey through the highlights of Black Cats history which is guaranteed to make any fan's heart swell with pride.
Rob Mason is Sunderland's publications editor and club historian, who has been watching the lads since 1967. Rob's books about the Black Cats include Left Back In Time, the acclaimed autobiography of Len Ashurst, Sunderland Cult Heroes, Miscellany, Complete Record, Match of My Life and Greatest Games.
