Show Notes

Welcome to another edition of On This Week, where we take a Roker Ramble through all things Sunderland AFC loosely related to events that happened on this week in the club's history.


On today's episode:


• Andrew wants to talk about an opening day defeat to Leicester City 30 years ago. The big question is why?

• From there, we talk BritPop, Australian midfielders and Simon Grayson's hairline.

• Kelvin's keen for a yarn about 'Cannonball' Charlie Fleming – and why was he known, in the Beattie household at least, as the 'Confused Ostrich'?

• Among the other varied things that pop up is phone calls to radio stations in support of David Moyes, Yann M'Vila turning up at training armed, and much, much more.
