Every year, thanks to Sunderland AFC & the BLC, we celebrate International Fans Day, where SAFC supporters from every corner of the globe jet in to be on Wearside for the weekend. Last Friday night, things kicked off with the annual Fan Party at the Fans Museum, and we were there to get in amongst the craic! Joining Gav are a whole host of supporters telling us about why they fell in love with Sunderland, and what it's like following along from abroad... Coming up: Listen in as the Lads get progressively more worse for wear... We hear from a fan from Pittsburgh who fell in love with Sunderland six years ago and is now officially obsessed! Ian from the German Black Cats drops by Mr IFD himself, Toronto-based Mackem Martin Bates, talks about his love for the annual meet-up... Fans from the Netherlands, Santander (Spain), Norway, and everywhere in between share their stories! All this and more!

It’s another Sunderland history epic today, as Martin, Andrew and Kelvin take a jaunt down memory lane to delve into all things related to Sunderland AFC that happened On This Week in years gone by!  On today’s show:  We look back at the Mercantile Credit Festival in 1988 – 16 different teams all at Wembley on the same day… sounds like a great idea!  Andrew tackles a big topic… Lawrie McMenemy at Sunderland. You may need therapy afterwards.  The lads look back on Sunderland’s first ever ‘play offs’. Guess the year… you’ll be way off!  Kelvin travels back to 1976, and while he didn’t know it at the time, he was standing as part of Sunderland’s last ever 50k+ crowd at Roker.  All of this and more, so sit back (or go for a really long run or drive) and enjoy!  Get subscribed to Haway The Podcast so you never miss another episode of our free daily show.

On today’s show, we cover: Sunderland’s performance against Spurs – did we see significant improvement from our recent home games? Brian Brobbey’s colossal performance – was that the type of display that will see European giants queuing up for him in the summer? Spurs felt hard done to by the ref - but he was praised to the hilt on Sky! What’s the truth? Plus, how are Sunderland looking ahead of our last six league games of an excellent campaign.

The recent publication of the Football Supporter Association's VAR survey caused shockwaves and had the Premier League scampering around to quell the noise, so Gav & Jonny caught up with Sunderland season card holder and the FSA's Head of Comms Michael Brunskill for a chat about loads of the things we like to chunter on about here on the pod! On today's show... Are Sunderland's tickets priced fairly? The VAR survey showed that people want rid of VAR - but the Premier League claimed otherwise! It's going nowhere, though, so what can be done about improving it? Are Sunderland one of the better clubs at listening to fans? All this and more!

Join Gav, Jonny and Andrew as they answer everything that's in this week's mailbag, including: Should Régis be loyal after beating the mags, or should he ring the changes and bring back some of his established players for the visit of Spurs? With 21 points to play for, how far can we go?! What do we make of all the big changes behind the scenes? What should the club do in the summer window? Which Sunderland legends deserve a statue?

The club recently announced the introduction of Legends' Way outside the ground – recognising and commemorating some of Sunderland AFC's club legends. The club put out a shortlist of 43 names – and with only 14 stones available, it's a tough choice to pick who should be honoured, and who should miss out! So, Martin, Kelvin and Andrew got together to try to whittle that list down to 14 – and there's some controversial calls, let us tell you! Seems like sacrilege, but will Charlie Hurley make the 14? Not if Kelvin has his way... What about Jimmy Thorpe, the keeper who lost his life playing for the club? Where do modern day names like Kevin Ball, Kevin Phillips, Thomas Sorensen and Niall Quinn sit in 'legend' terms? What about female stars Jill Scott, Steph Bannon and Steph Houghton? And Bob Murray was on the list... is that a mistake given the rest are players, and there aren't even any managers on there? All this and more!
