[seagulls cawing]
172
00:08:44,899 --> 00:08:46,859
The club needs to reinvent itself.
173
00:08:46,943 --> 00:08:50,613
Part of Stewart Donald and Charlie Methven
coming in and the season
174
00:08:50,696 --> 00:08:53,074
they're having in League One
is part of that reinvention.
175
00:08:53,574 --> 00:08:55,243
[birds cawing]
176
00:09:00,081 --> 00:09:02,625
[Charlie] The North East
gets an awful lot of bad press
177
00:09:02,708 --> 00:09:06,003
from people who've never been here before,
but on mornings like this,
178
00:09:06,254 --> 00:09:09,799
you just think, I'm lucky to be here,
'cause it's just absolutely beautiful.
179
00:09:09,882 --> 00:09:12,301
-[mellow music fades]
-Um, and... you know,
180
00:09:12,552 --> 00:09:16,180
there's no way that when I'm in the South
I have this kind of lifestyle.
181
00:09:16,889 --> 00:09:20,393
London is... London is a world apart.
You know, when I go down there,
182
00:09:20,476 --> 00:09:23,104
and when you talk to people
about Sunderland and the North East,
183
00:09:23,187 --> 00:09:24,772
they get this glazed look in their face,
184
00:09:24,855 --> 00:09:26,941
just like, "Yeah, but they're English...
185
00:09:27,191 --> 00:09:31,529
and poor, and I don't want to even
have to think about them,
186
00:09:31,612 --> 00:09:34,991
they're the people who voted for Brexit,"
and all this type of stuff.
187
00:09:37,660 --> 00:09:42,415
I think for Sunderland to make the final
of the Checkatrade Trophy
188
00:09:42,498 --> 00:09:45,418
would be a day of immense joy.
189
00:09:47,545 --> 00:09:51,757
With an enormous crowd
and with, you know, live TV...
190
00:09:51,841 --> 00:09:54,844
-[tense music playing]
-...it'd almost just say to themselves...
191
00:09:55,386 --> 00:09:59,432
first, and to the rest of the country,
second, "We're back."

-[thunder rumbles]
193
00:10:04,895 --> 00:10:07,398
[man] It hasn't happened yet,
but if they do get to a final,
194
00:10:07,481 --> 00:10:09,442
{\an8}-they will go down there in droves.
-[host] Mm-hmm.
195
00:10:09,525 --> 00:10:12,653
{\an8}You know, if they get 39, 40,000 tickets,
they'll all go
196
00:10:13,279 --> 00:10:15,239
because they're enjoying the success.
197
00:10:15,323 --> 00:10:16,782
Obviously, they want to get promoted,
198
00:10:16,866 --> 00:10:19,243
I think that's first and foremost
and priority number one.
199
00:10:19,535 --> 00:10:21,746
But if you could pick a trophy up
in the same season
200
00:10:21,829 --> 00:10:24,081
as well as getting promoted,
I mean, that would be special.
201
00:10:28,377 --> 00:10:31,297
[Ian] All right, Aiden?
Keep the magic going, mate. Jack.
202
00:10:31,672 --> 00:10:33,674
All the best, mate.
Good luck tonight, man.
203
00:10:34,216 --> 00:10:35,217
All right, Duncan?
204
00:10:36,344 --> 00:10:38,346
Massive, massive game tonight.
205
00:10:39,180 --> 00:10:42,141
Semifinal, 90 minutes away from Wembley.
206
00:10:42,224 --> 00:10:44,852
[Charlie] It's unbelievably nerve-racking.
207
00:10:45,603 --> 00:10:47,229
And if you're going to make it to Wembley,
208
00:10:47,313 --> 00:10:49,398
you have to win games
all sorts of different ways,
209
00:10:49,482 --> 00:10:50,608
and tonight it's a ding-dong.

into the penalty area.

in the final of the Checkatrade Trophy,

the Football League Trophy.
251
00:12:51,854 --> 00:12:53,856
An opportunity for Sunderland

00:12:53,939 --> 00:12:57,485
to win silverware at Wembley.

[Charlie] Whatever happens in the final...

I just wanted us to experience
that day at Wembley,
256
00:13:10,539 --> 00:13:11,582
together as a club,
257
00:13:11,665 --> 00:13:15,461
almost as like the...
the culmination of all the work
258
00:13:15,544 --> 00:13:17,755
that's gone on the last nine months.
To say, "Right,
259
00:13:17,838 --> 00:13:21,008
all of us together,
at Wembley on a cup final day."
260
00:13:21,592 --> 00:13:22,885

especially first thing in the morning
268
00:13:45,908 --> 00:13:49,495
{\an8}after a day like yesterday,
um, is very important.
269
00:13:49,578 --> 00:13:51,205
{\an8}It's just been so busy.
270
00:13:51,288 --> 00:13:54,458
We've done just short of 30,000

-in the space of 36 hours yesterday.
-[worker murmurs on phone]
272
00:13:57,795 --> 00:14:00,506
[Lorna] The Wembley game is a big...
it's a big deal, it's been a few years
273
00:14:00,589 --> 00:14:01,757
since we've been there.
274
00:14:02,299 --> 00:14:04,969
So I think this is the only thing
keeping us going at the moment,
275
00:14:05,052 --> 00:14:07,388
is the strong teas and coffees
that everybody's, uh...
276
00:14:07,471 --> 00:14:08,347
everybody's making.

[man] Wembley is Wembley,
it doesn't matter
280
00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,233
if it's the Checkatrade Trophy or what,
it's massive.
281
00:14:19,316 --> 00:14:20,609
It's got to be done,
282
00:14:20,693 --> 00:14:22,444
you've gotta be there,
just gotta be there.
283
00:14:22,778 --> 00:14:24,989
Trying any way possible
to get your hands on a ticket.
284
00:14:25,489 --> 00:14:27,366
And that's why everyone's here today,
basically.

00:14:28,784 --> 00:14:30,452

287
00:14:30,536 --> 00:14:31,704
[chuckles] No.
288
00:14:32,329 --> 00:14:37,293
It's probably a chance in a lifetime
for my 12-year-old.
289
00:14:37,376 --> 00:14:38,210
Um...
290
00:14:38,294 --> 00:14:39,628
[indistinct chatter]
291
00:14:40,170 --> 00:14:42,506
[man 2] It's a real community spirit
when we're out there.
292
00:14:42,590 --> 00:14:44,633
Regardless I think of whether
we get tickets or not...
293
00:14:44,717 --> 00:14:46,760
-We'll still be going down.
-...we'll go down. Yeah.
294
00:14:47,136 --> 00:14:48,846
[woman 2]
It's a big sense of pride, really.
295
00:14:48,929 --> 00:14:50,764
If Sunderland get to Wembley
and actually win,
296
00:14:51,223 --> 00:14:52,516
it just means everything.
297
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:55,227
It just makes everyone proud
and everyone a bit happier and...
298
00:14:55,477 --> 00:14:56,312
Yeah.
299
00:14:56,395 --> 00:14:57,479
[mellow music fades]
300
00:14:58,898 --> 00:15:01,734
[Tony] Right, okay, a final at Wembley.
Now...
301
00:15:02,484 --> 00:15:05,237
Look, it's big commercially.
I mean, the Checkatrade...
302
00:15:05,529 --> 00:15:06,989
People look at it like like it's a...
303
00:15:07,072 --> 00:15:09,408
it's an inconvenience
when you're in the group stages.
304
00:15:09,491 --> 00:15:12,828
But, Charlie, you've been to the final
twice with your hometown team.
305
00:15:12,995 --> 00:15:14,371
-[Charlie] Yeah.
-It's a big deal.
306
00:15:14,872 --> 00:15:18,000
You can probably end up making around
a million quid on the day,
307
00:15:18,292 --> 00:15:20,544
um, between retail and...
and your ticketing.
308
00:15:21,045 --> 00:15:24,089
So, um, we just want to make sure
that all our ducks are in a row.
309
00:15:24,173 --> 00:15:26,008
-[man] We've got--
-What would be our preference?
310
00:15:26,091 --> 00:15:28,093
[man] Capacity to sell
to every season ticket holder.
311
00:15:28,177 --> 00:15:31,013
-[Tony] Yeah, which is great.
-Irrespective of who the opponent is.
312
00:15:31,180 --> 00:15:32,681
[man 2] Is there any chance
313
00:15:32,765 --> 00:15:35,434
of introducing a phase
for non-season-card-holders
314
00:15:35,517 --> 00:15:37,478
that have been to Checkatrade games?
315
00:15:37,728 --> 00:15:40,230
-So we had fans that had gone--
-[Charlie] Love the idea,
316
00:15:40,314 --> 00:15:41,732
but I want to get back on to my idea
317
00:15:41,815 --> 00:15:44,026
-'cause I want to make more money.
-Yeah, of course.
318
00:15:44,318 --> 00:15:46,820
[stammers] If you get
an extra 3,000 people...
319
00:15:47,071 --> 00:15:47,905
[Chris] Mm-hmm.
320
00:15:47,988 --> 00:15:50,991
...spending 20 quid,
because they want to make sure of
321
00:15:51,075 --> 00:15:52,409
their cup final ticket,
322
00:15:52,743 --> 00:15:54,912
then we make 60,000 quid.
323
00:15:55,454 --> 00:15:57,289
We must be seen to be fair,
but at the same time,
324
00:15:57,373 --> 00:15:59,750
we must act in a businesslike way
and make as much money as possible,
325
00:15:59,833 --> 00:16:02,044
because that means
the business can flourish.
326
00:16:02,127 --> 00:16:02,962
Right? So...
327
00:16:03,045 --> 00:16:06,215
[in interview] We're aiming for revenues
this year of over £18 million.
328
00:16:07,424 --> 00:16:11,679
So for a one-off injection of £1 million,
329
00:16:11,804 --> 00:16:15,015
that's really meaningful. [stammers]
I mean, it pays for half of Will Grigg.
330
00:16:17,434 --> 00:16:18,727
[Stewart] It was pretty apparent,
331
00:16:18,811 --> 00:16:21,814
even from owning the club
after a couple of months,
332
00:16:21,897 --> 00:16:23,899
that we would need to talk to people
333
00:16:24,483 --> 00:16:26,944
about how we fund the long-term plan.
334
00:16:27,820 --> 00:16:28,904
And I've been doing that.
335
00:16:28,988 --> 00:16:31,699
When you get to the stadium,
if you've been there before, you think,
336
00:16:31,782 --> 00:16:33,909
-"This is big and special." Go on.
-[investor 1] Thanks.

00:16:33,993 --> 00:16:34,868
But, um...
338
00:16:34,952 --> 00:16:38,080
You don't-- You don't get to see
a football academy, do you?
339
00:16:38,455 --> 00:16:41,000
No. Far from it. Far, far from it.
340
00:16:41,542 --> 00:16:45,462
So you don't expect it,
and the academy itself is just...
341
00:16:45,963 --> 00:16:47,047
it's just fantastic.
342
00:16:48,257 --> 00:16:52,928
[stammers] I think the advantage is,
because we're aligned on what we would do
343
00:16:53,345 --> 00:16:55,180
on the football side,
which is the biggest,
344
00:16:55,264 --> 00:16:56,181
most important thing,
345
00:16:56,640 --> 00:16:57,850
we can carry on.
346
00:16:57,933 --> 00:16:59,226
[mellow music playing]
347
00:16:59,977 --> 00:17:02,563
{\an8}I've got a couple of options
and, of course, the issue is
348
00:17:02,646 --> 00:17:04,314
{\an8}that we want to raise a lot of funding.
349
00:17:05,107 --> 00:17:07,568
So these people will want a big stake.
350
00:17:07,651 --> 00:17:08,610
Um...
351
00:17:08,819 --> 00:17:11,572
And I don't have a problem
with a big stake, but losing control...
352
00:17:11,822 --> 00:17:13,991
[stammers] ...is not something
I really want to do.
353
00:17:15,242 --> 00:17:16,452
But I do want to own enough
354
00:17:16,535 --> 00:17:18,787
of the football club
to feel I can influence it.
355
00:17:18,871 --> 00:17:21,248

[Jack] Being around the players today,
I think I sensed that

there's optimism, there's confidence,
363
00:17:59,787 --> 00:18:02,873

there's a little bit extra.

are desperate to be involved.

It could be a great season, you know,

if we win the Checkatrade
and then get promoted.

That was the goal
and that was the...

at the start of the season.

Um, a lot of people have helped me
to this day
378
00:18:40,911 --> 00:18:42,830
and, you know,
when I step out onto that pitch,
379
00:18:42,913 --> 00:18:44,540
I'm not just stepping out there
for myself.
380
00:18:44,623 --> 00:18:47,626
You know, my family, my friends,
the managers that've given me my chance.

Ten games remaining. Nine league games,
the final on Sunday.
391
00:19:08,480 --> 00:19:11,024
Got an unbelievably congested
fixture list.
392
00:19:11,942 --> 00:19:14,862
But there's no point in us working
as hard as we have to get to the final
393
00:19:14,945 --> 00:19:16,488
not to win it. Um...
394
00:19:16,572 --> 00:19:18,907
It would be wasteful,
and it would hurt and it would be sore.

what their manager does

00:34:40,244 --> 00:34:41,370
[Barnes] Lowe is going to try
680
00:34:41,454 --> 00:34:42,997
and lob the keeper,
and he's scored.
681
00:34:43,164 --> 00:34:44,165
[fans cheering]
682
00:34:44,248 --> 00:34:47,543
Lowe has lobbed McLaughlin
at the edge of the area.
683
00:34:48,628 --> 00:34:51,339
-Portsmouth take the lead, 2-1.
-[tense music fades]
684
00:34:52,423 --> 00:34:54,092
With only six minutes left.
685
00:34:55,051 --> 00:34:57,053
[commentator 2] Got to defend
better than that, Nick.
686
00:35:03,476 --> 00:35:05,103
[crowd buzzes]
687
00:35:09,148 --> 00:35:11,484
[Barnes] And McLaughlin,
long kick forwards,
688
00:35:12,110 --> 00:35:12,985
looking for Wyke.
689
00:35:13,069 --> 00:35:15,321
It's going to drop away behind
for a goal kick.
690
00:35:15,655 --> 00:35:16,614
[crowd shouting]
691
00:35:16,989 --> 00:35:18,157
Fuck right off.
692
00:35:22,745 --> 00:35:24,997
[Barnes] Portsmouth have got
their flags out
693
00:35:25,081 --> 00:35:27,208
and they are waving them frantically.
694
00:35:27,792 --> 00:35:30,586
Sunderland's fans can only look on.
695
00:35:32,922 --> 00:35:35,258
Just wonder what might have been.
696
00:35:37,885 --> 00:35:41,097
So little time left now
to try and find an equalizer.
697
00:35:41,180 --> 00:35:42,723
[tense music resumes]
698
00:35:44,892 --> 00:35:47,061
Forwards again, to Honeyman.
699
00:35:47,186 --> 00:35:48,396
Honeyman down the right now.
700
00:35:48,771 --> 00:35:50,064
Get it in the box, lads.
701
00:35:51,023 --> 00:35:52,191
[Andrew] Come on, lads!
702
00:35:52,859 --> 00:35:53,776
Go on.
703
00:35:54,110 --> 00:35:55,611
[Barnes] Hume lobs it back in again.
704
00:35:56,070 --> 00:35:57,864
-[Andrew] Come on!
-[Barnes] McGeady here...
705

706
00:35:59,824 --> 00:36:00,992
[shouting] McGeady!
707

-[Andrew] Yes!
-[crowd roars]
708

709
00:36:11,085 --> 00:36:11,919
Come on!
710
00:36:16,591 --> 00:36:18,926
-Fucking get in! Get it!
-[screaming continues]
711
00:36:20,344 --> 00:36:21,804
[Barnes] It's 2-2!
712
00:36:23,222 --> 00:36:26,058
[men shouting and cheering]
713
00:36:29,478 --> 00:36:31,772
[Barnes] Out of the embers,
somehow Sunderland
714
00:36:31,856 --> 00:36:33,065
have scrambled it home,
715
00:36:33,482 --> 00:36:34,984
with a minute left.
716
00:36:35,651 --> 00:36:37,320
[fan] Come on, lads, get another!
717
00:36:38,321 --> 00:36:40,907
-[whistle blows]
-[Barnes] There's the full-time whistle.
718
00:36:40,990 --> 00:36:43,451
It is penalties here at Wembley.
719
00:36:43,534 --> 00:36:44,994
-What drama.
-[commentator 2 laughs]
720
00:36:46,078 --> 00:36:47,663
[crowd cheers in the distance]
721
00:36:51,918 --> 00:36:53,211
[announcer] Here we go,
722
00:36:53,294 --> 00:36:56,005
it's time for a penalty shoot-out
to decide
723
00:36:56,088 --> 00:37:00,176
the 2019 Checkatrade Trophy final!
724
00:37:00,927 --> 00:37:02,261
[groans nervously]
725
00:37:10,353 --> 00:37:12,730
You just hang on to me.
We'll get through it.
726
00:37:17,360 --> 00:37:19,779
[Barnes] Aiden McGeady comes forwards
here now,
727
00:37:19,862 --> 00:37:20,905
pauses, and sinks it
728
00:37:20,988 --> 00:37:22,698
-in the bottom left corner.
-[crowd cheers]
729
00:37:22,782 --> 00:37:25,034
It crept in, but he's scored.
730
00:37:27,078 --> 00:37:28,579
[crowd buzzes]
731
00:37:30,623 --> 00:37:32,458
Now, Evans
732
00:37:32,541 --> 00:37:34,961
for Portsmouth.
Short run-up from Evans.
733
00:37:35,378 --> 00:37:36,879
-[crowd shouts]
-And he's saved... No!
734
00:37:36,963 --> 00:37:37,880
[fans ooh]
735
00:37:37,964 --> 00:37:38,798
Bastard!
736
00:37:39,632 --> 00:37:40,967
[Peter] I thought he'd saved it.
737
00:37:44,303 --> 00:37:47,348
[Barnes] And Cattermole now
is coming forward.
738
00:37:49,850 --> 00:37:50,726
[whistle blows]
739
00:37:52,311 --> 00:37:53,187
[crowd whistling]
740
00:37:57,024 --> 00:37:59,277
Lee Cattermole now. Right-footed.
741
00:37:59,360 --> 00:38:01,028
-Oh, it's saved!
-[fans cheer]
742
00:38:03,698 --> 00:38:05,700
[Peter] I'd have never let him
take a penalty.
743
00:38:11,163 --> 00:38:12,623
[tense music intensifies]
744
00:38:16,460 --> 00:38:17,545

[fans yelling indistinctly]
749
00:38:34,061 --> 00:38:37,189
[Barnes] Luke O'Nien now has to score
750
00:38:37,273 --> 00:38:40,359
to keep this penalty shoot-out alive.
751
00:38:41,444 --> 00:38:43,154
Luke O'Nien with his right foot.
752
00:38:43,446 --> 00:38:44,530
Into the corner,
753
00:38:44,613 --> 00:38:45,948
rolls it home.
754
00:38:46,574 --> 00:38:48,242
It's four penalties apiece.
755
00:38:51,996 --> 00:38:53,122
This is it, isn't it?
756
00:38:53,372 --> 00:38:55,124
-If he shoots, it's won.
-Aye.
757
00:38:55,374 --> 00:38:57,376
If they score, it's all over.
It's good night.
758
00:39:01,922 --> 00:39:03,591
Just dive the right way.
759
00:39:08,512 --> 00:39:10,348
[Barnes] Here's Hawkins. Comes forwards.
760
00:39:10,431 --> 00:39:11,974
-And he scores.
-[crowd erupts]
761
00:39:12,058 --> 00:39:15,311
Portsmouth win the Checkatrade Trophy,
762
00:39:15,394 --> 00:39:18,356
5-4 on penalties.
763
00:39:24,904 --> 00:39:27,615
Sunderland's agonizing wait
764
00:39:27,782 --> 00:39:31,285
{\an8}for a Wembley win carries on.

[somber music playing]
767
00:39:45,341 --> 00:39:46,592
Didn't deserve that.
768
00:39:46,717 --> 00:39:48,260
[indistinct intercom chatter]
769
00:39:48,469 --> 00:39:49,720
They did work hard.
770
00:39:50,596 --> 00:39:52,932
I just feel for each
and every one of them.
771
00:39:58,521 --> 00:40:01,399
I just love my bairns and I want them
to win all the time.
772
00:40:02,066 --> 00:40:03,567
And I know they can play well.

Come on. Give us a hug.
776
00:40:28,217 --> 00:40:29,802
It's not the end of the world.
777
00:40:32,263 --> 00:40:35,266
[Charlie] Both Stu and I are frustrated.
778
00:40:35,349 --> 00:40:39,228
It's the same every single week.
The same slow play after half-time,
779
00:40:39,353 --> 00:40:42,606
the same, go one goal up
and then defend our own penalty box.
780
00:40:46,444 --> 00:40:48,904
Ultimately, as the board,
you appoint the manager
781
00:40:48,988 --> 00:40:50,281
and the manager manages the team.
782
00:40:50,364 --> 00:40:53,200
-[indistinct chatter]
-So, it's up to the manager
783
00:40:54,076 --> 00:40:56,954
to look deep inside himself,
and his coaching staff,
784
00:40:57,037 --> 00:40:58,873
and ask some really tough questions.
785
00:41:01,542 --> 00:41:04,044
We've all got to lift ourselves up
off the canvas
786
00:41:04,795 --> 00:41:08,591
'cause we've now got nine league games
in the space of a month,
787
00:41:08,674 --> 00:41:10,968
and those nine league games will determine
whether or not
788
00:41:11,051 --> 00:41:13,554
the rest of the season
is as disappointing as that,
789
00:41:13,637 --> 00:41:16,056
or that we look back in five weeks' time
790
00:41:16,140 --> 00:41:19,643
and say, "That was the day we decided
that we would definitely get promoted
791
00:41:19,727 --> 00:41:21,395
'cause we didn't want
to feel like that again."
