(write a summary and give your opinion of the item you’ve watched)

In this series the season 17/18 of Sunderland is shown. This is the season after they have relegated from the Premiership in 16 years. The players say it was a bad year but now they want to bounce back. With the new coach and new transfers they think they can win the Championship and go back to the Premier League. They follow them to their first match in the 2nd division.

In the first couple of minutes Sunderland goes behind. Then Fletcher goes down in the box and it is a penalty for Sunderland. He misses. The fans a trying to get them back up, but they don’t succeed. They lose the game. That concludes the episode.

 

I liked this type of series because it was something different I have never watched before. I especially liked the filmmaking and the way the whole episode was filmed. The way the fans looked to the dressing room. It all looked like the club was something instead of the club it actually is, because they haven’t been doing well. I also liked the way the club took the whole relegation as a moment of learning and not as just a defeat. Because of this episode my love for the club has increased and that is a good sign.
