Someone had to have seen, from day one, that the fella who looks like Peter Mannion from The Thick of It was a chancer

Sunderland 'Til I Die Series 2: 'There were tears in the edit suite'

BBC Sport speaks to the executive producers of Netflix series Sunderland 'Til I Die before the release of the new series on Wednesday.

www.bbc.co.uk

The main characters are the controversial new owners - chairman Stewart Donald and now former director Charlie Methven.

Donald and Methven do a lot of good at the club, re-engaging the fan base and helping achieve a record attendance for a League One match on Boxing Day for instance, but there are difficult moments too.

Methven, in particular, is forthright and undeniably passionate but an expletive-laden dressing down of an employee is an uncomfortable watch.

Speaking to BBC Sport, he admitted there are moments where he “could have done better".

“People wouldn't be human if they didn't understand you come across well in some moments and not so well in other moments,” Methven said.

“That is the nature of these fly-on-the-wall documentaries. If you are being followed for a year it would take a much more proficient actor than me to be perfect every moment throughout that year.

“It is almost better not to think about that. It is better to say ‘that is us. That is Stewart and me. That is what we were trying to do. Make of that what you will.'”

Not content with basically ending Sunderland, he's now copying my favourite GOT phrase.

What a hero.

There’s something very weird about Sunderland, they’ve done so many things right on paper and it just seems to never work.

Moyes, Rodwell, Johnson to name just a tiny tiny few. Don’t get me wrong they’ve done a lot of stuff horribly wrong too, but as a football club I feel like they could sign Messi and he would die in a car crash on the way to training.

Always had a soft spot for them, good support and that. Will always remember when we beat them 7-1 and we played crap most of the game lol

We’ve even got a Brexit rally scene now

A true Sunderland bingo on the go
