Look at us doing transfer specials again, who'd have thought? Truth is, like many of you, we have no idea what Marc Guiu is like, so we really wanted to find out.

My wonderful journalist pal, and massive Chelsea fan, Rob Pratley joins me to give us the low down on our new loan recruit, what to expect, his strengths and weakness and a while load more.

And now time for something a little different. We were delighted to welcome Sunderland's first team performance psychologist Lauren Garner to the show to chat mentality, injuries and what it took for the Lads to keep going #TilTheEnd.

Brad Sharpe makes one of his random podcast appearances, as we get a little bit deeper than usual with Lauren, and what her day-to-day role is at the AOL.

The return of Premier League football is almost here, but first and foremost the Lads are looking forward to a trip to the Scottish capital to pay homage to a former Sunderland keeper, and Hearts legend, in the shape of Craig Gordon.

We've always enjoyed a jaunt up to Gorgie, but it has been an astonishing 16-years since Sunderland fans were last able to visit Tynecastle, so we invited the EPSN commentator and Scarves Around The Funnel host Mark Donaldson to give us the lowdown on what to expect - and more importantly- which pubs to visit!

In the latest of our summer episodes, we got together to play a game of 'pick your best ever Sunderland XI' - with a few rules.

Sophie, Dave and new regular guest Ian join me to pick their ultimate SAFC XI using only players from the Stadium of Light era. However, if one player is picked, then he is unable to be chosen again by another contributor. Just a wee bit of fun to keep up going until the real thing is back.
