What’s the crack?

The Sunderland Community Soup Kitchen and RR have decided to release as many player interviews as we can over the festive season, especially as there’s no football of any significance occurring currently...

Our Rich Speight had the pleasure of going all deep dive into the career and mind of one of his (and our own) all time favourite Sunderland cult heroes, the star of the 1992 FA Cup run - Mr John Byrne! Talking that cup run, the Lads he played alongside, his International career with the Republic of Ireland, his love of Denis Smith and Viv Busby (and boyhood club Man Utd) and so much more! We loved every moment, we hope you do too!

You can listen for FREE on Acast, iTunes, Spotify, & YouTube - get stuck in!

Should poverty and hunger be issues faced by millions of people in the UK in the year 2020? The answer is no. Do you or I have the power to eradicate these problems overnight? Again, no. Can you or I do something to make a difference? Yes, we can.

By supporting the work of the Sunderland Community Soup Kitchen, we can make a real difference to the lives of real people in our city.

This Christmas, we are asking the Sunderland family to help raise funds for Sunderland Community Soup Kitchen. If you aren’t already aware of the organisation and the vital work they carry out in the local community, please click here to find out more.

2020 has been a tough year for us all, but more for some than others. Hungry people in Sunderland need your help. Please help the Community Soup Kitchen to help them - click here to donate today.
