Sunderland AFC has a new official book going on sale in October.
'Sunderland Cult Heroes' focuses on ten players who all earned
themselves the accolade of being cult heroes at SAFC.

Sunderland AFC
This means you can guarantee
your copy of every home league
programme for the same price you
would pay at the ground but have
it delivered to your door. If the Lads
are playing on a Saturday or Sunday
your programme will be posted to
you on a Friday so you should have
it on a Saturday morning (postal
service allowing). Midweek issues will
be posted on the day of the game.
A subscription for all 19 home
league programmes this season will
cost you just £57 - a reduction of
£14.25 on last season's programme
subscription price of £71.25.
Last season three issues completely
sold out at the match on the day of the
game so a subscription is your way of
making certain that you are never ever
without your copy of 'Red and White.'
This season's 84 page issue will as
always be jam packed with exclusive
columns, interviews, club news and full
coverage of every game played by the
first team, reserves and Under 18s.
Popular features such as 'Looking
for the Lads' where we track down a
player from yesteryear will continue
and we have a new feature on football
memorabilia for all of you interested
either in collecting or finding out
about football ephemera. For those
of you who feel your copy of 'All the
Lads' is getting a bit out of date we
are bringing back 'More of the Lads', a
series in the same style as the definitive
A to Z of Sunderland players featuring
the fifty plus players to play for
Sunderland since the match programme
last updated the book for you.
The players' trivia quiz continues
with a new look that starts each week
with a couple of questions about SAFC.
To kick off with against Liverpool, last
season's 'Daz Challenge' champion Roy
O'Donovan will be looking to defend
his crown against fellow front man
In particular, hard man full back Joe
Bolton and midfield maestro Kevin
Arnott have given very few interviews
over the years and both of this seventies
pair were hugely popular with the crowd.
Today's match honours the 1973
FA Cup winners and two members of
that side feature. Centre forward Vic
Halom and right back Dick Malone both
reveal things never before published.
Indeed none of the players interviewed
have ever previously talked in such
depth about their time at Sunderland
and explored why they thought they
had such a special relationship with
the crowd on Wearside and compare
it with their relationship with crowds
elsewhere. They weren't always popular!
You can have your name (or the
name of someone you buy the book
for) printed in the back of the book for
no extra charge providing you order

end of August. You can use the order
