You’d have been buzzing for Wednesday mate, keep the red flag flying high up there. Miss you mate ❤️

I Wish You Were Here #1 ❤️

Jack Shields was Sunderland crazy. He followed the Lads home and away, travelling the length and breadth of the country and rarely missing a game.

Football was a huge part of Jack’s life. He loved talking about the game, particularly anything Sunderland-related, and he even did a weekly podcast where he could share his thoughts and opinions. Through the darkest days, including the double relegation, Jack always remained positive.

He never stopped believing that we would get back to where we belonged - the Premier League.

Tragically, Jack passed away just hours after returning home from our final away game of 2024. He never got to see Sunderland promoted back to the Premier League the following season.

I can only imagine how delighted he would have been. To see the Lads back in the Premier League, the incredible progress the club has made, and now to be competing in the Europa League - more than 50 years since Sunderland last played in European competition - would have meant absolutely everything to him.

It breaks my heart that Jack isn't here to share these moments with us. I know just how much he would have loved every second of it.

But I like to think that, on Wednesday night, he'll have the best seat in the house - looking down on the Lads and cheering them on, just as he always did.

And if he could send us a little bit of luck from up there, we certainly wouldn't say no.

We’ll be thinking of you every step of the way, Jack.

Love,
Mam x

Anyone else with @EE and their signals been absolutely shite for months now?

@pauljacques83 @KielTulloch I’ve been told the same. Got to collect tickets at the ground or at a hotel close to the ground and have your passport for ID.

[Lee @LeeC95_]

Looks like it’s the home end for York away. Promised the bairn I’d take him, didn’t even realise tickets were on sale and it’s sold out. 😳😂

@SunderlandAFC March 21st 🤣🤣🤣 could be that we send you down that day… relegated by the Mags… imagine the tears 🤭, guess you’ll all be praying to be relegated before that game then?…get it in early doors lads eh 🤔

[James @Jamesbfc88]

Sunderland fans in for a big shock when they realise signing a whole new team doesn’t keep you up.
Finished miles behind Burnley and leeds last season who have both improved their squads. Sunderland will finish bottom.

Anya Chappell wants us to change our nickname to The Cats!

[Lee @LeeC95_]

What a fucking goal. 🔥

[Lee @LeeC95_]

Captained his boyhood club back to the Premier League, lived the dream. Good signing for Ipswich, good luck to the lad. 🔴⚪️🔴

[Sunderland AFC @SunderlandAFC]

We can today confirm the departure of long-serving midfielder Dan Neil.

Neil has joined Ipswich Town on loan until the end of the season, ending his 18-year association with Sunderland at the end of his contract in June.

He lived the dream, and we all wish him well in the next chapter of his career ❤️
