Anyone else started watching this? Really great insight to a football club and how’s it operates.
Downside is Martin Bain is on camera a lot.
Enjoy.

It's a warts and all series, shows a lot thats wrong with current game, one saving grace is the fans dedication passion and support, mind Bain doesn't come over well, how he earned 1.2 million a year I will never know.
Series 2 is being filmed this season and with reviews for this series being so positive I would imagine netflix will screen it.

Did hear about this earlier in the week somewhere and despite not being big into watching English football, this is something I would definitely like to watch. Whether I can wrestle the remote off the missus and drag her away from her Ozark binge remains to be seen though.

Just heard about this today. One for the festive holidays.

Definitely going to watch this over the festive holiday period as well.
I’ve still to watch the Man City All Or Nothing documentary on Amazon Prime which received some pretty good reviews so definitely got that on the watch list.

Disappointed that it didn’t start at the beginning of pre-season. Was hoping to see a wee bit of Hibs in there. Would have liked to maybe see bits of our game against them

A programme about Sunderland you say. I assume this is a comedy?

Don't worry Bain won't appear much in the new series!
Just comes across as an arrogant ar$e.

Watched the first 3 episodes last night, decent watch considering Sunderland are one of the least interesting clubs I can think of.
Found it funny in the first episode where one of the Sunderland fans had hoped for a 4 or 5 nil win against Celtic to give them a bit of confidence for the season. Shows how little they think of Scottish football. Celtic spanked them 5-0 at the Stadium of Light.

Just finished it. What a shambles that club has been. I thought there was an awful lack of accountability from some senior players. Speaking to the cameras seemed to get panned off on a few young lads, and Gibson. I thought Jack Rodwell came over as a fud but then the club chose to give him his contract as well so there's blame lying at other peoples door for that situation too.
Thought Coleman came across pretty well and if anyone was going to keep them up it was most likely going to be him but I think it was a poisoned chalice and I'm amazed he left Wales for that job.

Martin Bain and Jim White are in so much in the opening two episodes I considered bailing out on it, they are both so skincrawlingly annoying. But then you realise that Bain becoming a laughing stock/hate figure is part of the story, him being the self satisfied succulent lamb range rover driving love himself so much he'd eat himself tit that he is. Him planting unwanted kisses on the women in the office was pure David Brent.
But it's a quality production, really good documentary.

Binged watched this yesterday, really good show, the part where Martin Bain was raging when Roswell said he would be staying to run down his contract😂
The club were stupid enough not to put a clause in but expect the player to walk away,

Watched episode two last night. Martin Bain - the last time I think I saw anyone in a v neck sweater with nothing underneath was Franco Begbie in Trainspotting. Maybe still popular in the North East of England..

I just started watching it last night.
Looks like I'm alone here, but I thought Martin Bain seemed ok. He was hated by the Sunderland fans, but had an impossible job - move on a load of crap players who were earning a fortune and not really wanting to contribute anything, and replace them with players who earned less but contributed significantly more.
That will be a tough club to turn around, but by all accounts they are now just about going in the right direction.
