Product Description
Product Description
The story of Sunderland Football Club, charting the club's progress from being the first great team to dominate the Football League, to the squad which returned to the top of English soccer at the dawn of the new millennium. Hutchinson traces a journey from Newcastle Road to the Stadium of Light by way of Roker Park. The early days of the Team of All the Talents - the side in red and white stripes which took the English League by storm, breaking records and their opponents' hearts year after brilliant year - are brought vividly to life. Great goal-scorers and goal-makers like Johnny Campbell and Jimmy Gillespie and sensational goalkeepers such as the legendary Ned Doig, stride out of the pages of this book. And the figures whose brilliance made Roker roar - from Len Shackleton and Brian Clough to Peter Reid and Niall Quinn - are vividly portrayed. Hutchinson also explores the club's devotion to winning trophies with style. The long - and finally triumphant - quest for FA Cup victories is followed game by game. The heartbreaks and disappointments are also here in this see-saw ride through 120 years of English football which ends as it began - right at the top.
