Expertly presented in evocative historical context, and described incident-by-incident in atmospheric detail, Sunderland Greatest Games offers a terrace ticket back in time, taking in the games that sealed six top-flight titles, all four of the lads' FA Cup finals and the all-time top-flight record away win of 9-1 at Newcastle in 1908.
