About this listen
Our old mate Ian Murtagh - a sports journalist who has covered Sunderland for over 40 years - joins us to go over all of our promotions to the top flight that he covered from 1990 right the way through to the present day, looking back at how we did it and how we fared in the following season, and to see if there are any comparisons that we can draw to this season's promotion to the Premier League!
On today's agenda:
- The 1989-90 promotion and how Denis Smith's Sunderland battled valiantly but eventually succumbed to the drop...
- Depression during the early 90s in the wake of Newcastle's success, before eventually being lifted by a messiah named Peter Reid;
- The greatest promotion of them all - heading up to the Premiership with a record 105, and then succeeding the following season;
- The drop in 2002/03 and then an unlikely promotion under Mic Mac - but struggling the year after...
- Keano's magic carpet ride;
- And the present day, under Régis Le Bris. Which promotion felt the best?
