The Football History of Sunderland Telegraph Edition
SUNDERLAND fans will not need an outline of the narrative arc of this volume, but it may help them to decide which half of the club’s history is the more remarkable: the 58 consecutive seasons in Division One that brought six league titles by 1936, or the past 60-odd years, in which they have shown an unrivalled instinct for survival.
This Telegraph Custom Gift Book charts Sunderland’s story through reproduced reports and images from the paper’s archives. It begins with a historic third league title win in 1895 and concludes with their return to the Premier League in 2025, but it’s an understatement to say you should buckle up for the ride in between.
So while readers will savour the highs of the 9-1 win away to Newcastle United in 1908 or the memorable FA Cup final triumphs of 1937 and 1973, lows such as the club’s two spells in the third tier, ownership issues and dizzying line of managerial changes are all reminders that following Sunderland demands a strong heart.
