  Twelve Sunderland legends have come together to tell the unique stories behind their personal favourite games from their Potters careers, including many never before told tales from behind the scenes and photos from each match. The featured players include: Kevin Ball; Jimmy Montgomery; Charlie Hurley; Marco Gabbiadini; Gary Rowell; Shaun Elliott; Gary Bennett; Bobby Gurney; Stan Anderson; Nick Sharkey; Len Ashurst; and Craig Russell. The games they have selected include the 1973 FA Cup Final, promotion winning matches, feats of scoring prowess and a victory over Newcastle at St, James' Park. The book also includes one interview from beyond the grave as Sunderland legend Bobby Gurney, who died in 1994, gave his last interview to the editor shortly beforehand and it has never before been published. But which game will each player select as his favourite ever in a Sunderland shirt? This book is sure to delight Sunderland fans of all ages as they relive these magic moments through the eyes of the men who were on the pitch playing the Match of Their Life.
