| Sunderland |
| Founded: 1879 |
| Nick Name: Black Cats |
| Coach: Roy Kean |
| Home Ground: The Stadium of Lights |
|
The "Black Cats" had an exciting season as the club had an unbeaten run of seventeen games from the start of 2007 under the contentious Roy Keane. Famed for their large support, Sunderland fans were voted the loudest supporters in the Premier League 2007-08 season following a survey which was carried out at every ground in the league.
Roy Kean a former Red Devil will want his team that finished 15th in the Premier League to pull up their sock and put on a consistent performance and score more goals. With players like Michael Chopra who is a regular goal scorer and Kenwyne Jones who will want to be on the score sheet more regularly for Sunderland than on the injury list.
With the loudest fans available the team wont fall short of the support they need for the new season to start on a high note too.
