Ant returns to go over the lads immediate feelings and rate a bizarre match against AFC Wimbledon last night. You can listen for FREE on Acast, iTunes, Spotify, & YouTube - get stuck in!

What’s the crack?

• Eight first team players out... But it went ahead anyway... What's occurring there?

• Should we still have taken the 3 points?

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.

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.

Gav takes over the Xtra hosting duties this week as the lads look at Lee Johnson's first proper match in charge against Oldham in the EFL trophy and ahead to tomorrow's match away against Lincoln City in the league, as well as looking at the individuals they'd like to see more of, the individuals they'd like to see less of, the wait for the awaited takeover by KLD and much, much more!
