Condition: New. Language: English . Brand New Book. Bob Stokoe created one of the greatest moments in football history when his Second Division Sunderland side defeated the might of Leeds United in the 1973 FA Cup final. When the final whistle shrilled out across Wembley and most of the football world celebrated his side s incredible triumph against the odds, Stokoe danced across the turf, arms outstretched to rejoice with his players. That moment has been immortalised in the both the TV footage and a statue outside Sunderland s new home, the Stadium of Light. Stokoe was all the more remarkable because he had managed to cross the divide in the north east. As a player he had been a member of Newcastle s 1950s FA Cup winning teams as a centre-half seemingly hewn out of granite who took no prisoners as he protected the likes of Jackie Milburn, Bobby Mitchell, George Robledo and Len White. During a forty-year career in the game, which took in spells with Hartlepool United, Bury and managerial stints with Charlton Athletic, Carlisle United, Blackpool and Rochdale, Stokoe locked swords on the pitch with Brian Clough, over the...

Hill’s sudden departure to London Weekend Television prior to the opening game at Burnley saw the appointment of Noel Cantwell as manager .

Matches – 5 May 1973 –Leeds United 0 Sunderland 1 FA Cup final – Wembley – 100,000 Scorers: None Leeds United: Harvey, Reaney, Cherry, Bremner, Madeley, Hunter, Lorimer, Clarke, Jones, Giles, E Gray (Yorath 77) Sunderland: Montgomery, Malone, Guthrie, Horswill, Watson, Pitt, Kerr, Porterfield, Halom, Hughes, Tueart One of the lowest points in the history of Leeds United Football Club came in early May 1973, as they sought to defend the FA Cup they won for the first time twelve months earlier. They were the hottest favourites for years, considered certainties to beat their Second Division opponents, rank outsiders Sunderland. A day that should have been one of celebration and triumph ended instead with United in a trough of depression and despair. “Everything points to a United victory” read the unusually confident headline of Don Revie‟s column for the Yorkshire Evening Post the Saturday before the final. The Leeds manager was in buoyant mood, The Leeds United team wave to the crowd before the match: writing: “Leeds United‟s experience of playing at Billy Bremner, David Harvey, Paul Reaney, Johnny Giles, Wembley is likely to prove the decisive factor in next Norman Hunter, Trevor Cherry, Peter Lorimer, Eddie Gray, Saturday‟s FA Cup final against Sunderland… As far Paul Madeley, Mick Jones, Terry Yorath, Allan Clarke as the FA Cup final is concerned, I consider the Sunderland players will suffer to a certain extent as none of them has played at Wembley previously. “This will be Leeds‟ fifth Wembley Cup final in eight years (including the 1968 League Cup final against Arsenal).

Seasonal Home Advantage in English Professional Football; 1974–2018
De Economist https://doi.org/10.1007/s10645-020-09372-z Seasonal Home Advantage in English Professional Football; 1974–2018 Thomas Peeters1,3 · Jan C. van Ours2,3,4,5 © The Author(s) 2020 Abstract We study seasonal home advantage in English professional football over the period 1974 to 2018. We distinguish between absolute home advantage, enjoyed equally by all teams in a division, and relative home advantage, which difers among teams in the division. We fnd that absolute home advantage is substantial, ranging from 0.59 to 0.64 in terms of points per game or 0.44 to 0.46 in terms of goal difer- ence. Likewise, clubs difer substantially in the relative home advantage they enjoy. Relative home advantage is positively related to within-team variation in attendance and the use of an artifcial pitch. Despite big cross-divisional diferences in attend- ance, absolute home advantage is about the same in all divisions. Finally, there is a substantial decline in absolute home advantage over time that materializes equally across divisions.

Advanced Information
Title information Promotion-Winning Black Cats The Stories Behind Each and Every Sunderland AFC Promotion Season By Rob Mason Key features • Tells the fascinating inside story of every Sunderland promotion-winning season – an essential addition to any Black Cat bookshelf • First-hand accounts from players and managers involved in the big games • Discover the inside story of how promotion was won despite losing the play-off final of 1990 and the tale of Reidy’s ‘Kings’, who achieved a record 105 points in 1999 • Examines the ‘Roy-volution’ under Roy Keane, when Sunderland stormed to the Championship title in 2007 despite losing the first four games under Niall Quinn • Features profiles of every player involved together with a statistics section giving results, appearances and league tables • Publicity campaign planned including radio, newspapers, Description websites, podcasts and magazines From 1890 to 1958, Sunderland were part of football's elite with a 68-year unbroken run in the top flight. The shock of a first relegation in 1958 was matched by the elation of a first promotion in 1963/64. Starting with that season, the book celebrates every occasion Sunderland went up. What was the secret to each Black Cats promotion? And who did the fans have to thank? Rob Mason gets the inside story through exclusive interviews with players and managers who were at the heart of the action. Moments of magic and mystery are revealed as the story of each season unfolds. From Charlie Hurley’s much-loved 1963/64 side, through to the second Bob Stokoe side to win a trophy at Sunderland in 1976, Ken Knighton winning promotion in his first season as a manager and the teams of Denis Smith and Peter Reid – who each won promotion twice – then on to the ‘Sund-Ireland’ era when promotion was won under Mick McCarthy and then Roy Keane, all the great days and great games are here to cherish and enjoy.
