Well - a game of two halves indeed.

We debated not doing it, but we did anyway and tried to pick apart how Sunderland contrived to lose four second half goals after going 2-0 up early on.

It was just me and Brad Sharp this evening, but hopefully you enjoy.

A swashbuckling win against Wigan was followed up by a frustrating night at Blackburn Rovers - but we come back to Wearside this Saturday to face former Premier League side Burnley at the SOL.

A free hit? Many would say so as the high flyers arrive in Sunderland third off top.

And why couldn't Sunderland beat them? With 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 defeats, any version of Sunderland could turn up on Saturday - let's just hope it's the best version.

NationalWorld’s North West Digital Sports Editor (and friend of Gary Rowell!) Daniel Black joins me this week to run me through Vincent Kompany's boys season so far.

We had technical issues a plenty this week, but we ploughed on to ensure you received your weekly preview dose.

A million former Sunderland players return with Wigan Athletic this week as Tony Mowbray's men look to pull themselves out of a mini slump.

Can they do it? Will Nathan Broadhead score against us like it is obviously nailed on to happen? Who knows.

But to give us some idea of how it will go this weekend was returning guest Adam from Wigan podcast Progress With Unity.

Positive in the face of a bore draw last week becomes a concern a week later - who'd be a football fan?

A very poor first 45 couldn't be rescued by an improved second half display - alas, the striker situation reared its ugly head again.

Ross Black and Brad Sharp join to chat through a slightly worrying week for Sunderland and try to look at some positives, while also acknowledging the negatives.

Anyone else pleased we're away this week?

A double header of 0-0 draws have taken the shine off a fairly handsome set of results against Reading and Watford as we head off to Wales for the weekend.

However, it's not unusual for Sunderland to turn it on when you least expect it, despite Swansea winning 4 of their last 5.

Luke from the SwansCast is our guest this week, as he gives us the lowdown on Russell Martin's ever improving Swans.

A bore draw - but why does it still feel oh so positive?

Sunderland produced another good display that, on most days, would have been enough to grab all three points as played out a goalless with 0-0 specialists Preston.

Dave Lawrence and Brad Sharp join to chat through why we're feeling oh so positive - and Robbie Bacon,

Midweek was all about the Barcelona-esque goal, but this weekend was all about Jewi Bennette, as the Lads took a well deserved point back to Wearside.
