Welcome to Haway The Podcast, and today we delve into Don Revie’s time at Sunderland – with the aim of finding out just how close he was to becoming Sunderland manager! In today’s show, Martin and Kelvin look at: We’ll be back next week with Part 2 of the Don Revie and Sunderland story, but […]
For hockey fans in Canada, missing a big NHL game feels like missing a heartbeat. The roar of the crowd, the sharp glide on ice, the last-second goal, it’s more than just entertainment; it’s emotion. But traditional cable has started to feel like an expensive gatekeeper, limiting access instead of enhancing it. That’s why more […]

The Premier League season of 2025/26 is heading for its conclusion and there is still plenty to be settled. England’s top division is watched by billions of enthusiasts around the world as it is unrivalled when it comes to drama on the field. With a month of the campaign remaining, it’s set to be an […]

Over the last month Juventus have, for once, had the favor of the football gods. The teams they’ve been competing with for Serie A’s final Champions League spot have hemorrhaged points in recent weeks, allowing a Juventus team that a month ago looked like they were all but beaten to head into the final four […]
Across Europe’s biggest leagues this season, one trend keeps repeating itself — Nigerian players are not just present, they are decisive. From title races in Italy to high-intensity battles in England and Germany, this group of players is shaping outcomes in ways that go beyond simple statistics. It’s not just about goals or assists anymore; […]

We’ve done these ‘On This Day’ for around five or six years now, and there are just days where there is an obvious pick to write about, but all of us who contribute to these pieces try to pick out the more obscure game/event from the day, rather than the obvious one if we can. […]
Strange feeling, this. For the last time we were able to celebrate Sunderland guaranteeing another season of Premier League football as a newly-promoted club, you’d have to go way back to the 2007/2008 campaign as Roy Keane and Niall Quinn’s magic carpet ride climbed to an even higher altitude (or so it seemed at the […]
Saturday’s 1-1 draw at Wolves may not have been ‘first on Match of the Day’ material, but it did ensure we’d be kicking off in August as a Premier League club. In the summer, survival was the main aim, with anything more being a bonus. With 35 games played, we haven’t been lower than 13th […]
Dear Roker Report, Lads, we need you. Last few times we’ve needed a push you’ve driven it. Three huge games, Europe dream faint but alive. Need a fans push/shout/rally for our last three games. Let’s have the SoL bouncing like Coventry, like the Visitors and like so many others for the last two home games. […]
Sunderland’s mathematical safety in the Premier League was confirmed with the point at Wolves on Saturday afternoon, yet the potential we’ve seen from what this team can achieve when they put their minds to it has had me lusting for even more recently — and that’s left me in a rather strange position as I […]
A week after sweeping the LA Kings, the Colorado Avalanche were back in action hosting the Minnesota Wild in a pivotal second round opening matchup. And how this game unfolded didn’t disappoint those high expectations with 14 different goal scorers including five defenseman to arrive at the 9-6 win for the Avalanche. The Game Minnesota […]
It’s now been roughly three hours since the final horn of the 2025-26 Tampa Bay Lightning season sounded. To this very moment, we’re not exactly sure how the Lightning lost this game. Yes, we grasp the concept that they scored fewer goals than the Canadiens. Still, it was such a well-played game, especially defensively, that we’re still kind of waiting for them to somehow find the equalizer.
The Lightning limited the Montreal Canadiens to nine shots on goal. There was a stretch of roughly...
The San Diego Padres have officially announced the ownership transfer of the team to José E. Feliciano and his wife, Kwanza Jones. The couple will own approximately 40% of the team and Feliciano will be the controlling partner in the eyes of MLB. They will be joined by a group of owners that will continue […]
Rutgers women’s Lacrosse is officially back in the big dance, as they have earned an at-large bid in the NCAA tournament, punching their ticket to compete at the national tournament down in Maryland for the first time since 20222. The Scarlet Knights will open postseason play against in-state rival Princeton on Friday, May 8, at 2 […]
The Virginia Cavaliers defeated Virginia Tech on the gridiron in November. It was only UVa’s third football win this century over the Hokies. On Sunday, the Hokies exacted some revenge, flipping the commitment of North Cross (Roanoke, Va.) wide receiver Demarcus Brown to Tech. A 6-foot-3.5, 180-pound playmaker, Brown initially committed to Virginia back on […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers are moving on, courtesy of a certain Fro. Let’s check on tonight’s winners and losers. WINNER – Jarrett **c**** Allen I’m not sure if there was a more encouraging way for the Cavs to exorcise some demons and advance to the second round than Jarrett Allen going full-on beast mode in a […]
The final game of the opening round of the 2026 Stanley Cup Playoffs was concluded tonight as the Montreal Canadiens held on for a 2-1 win over the Tampa Bay Lightning, eliminating the Lightning as the eighth and final team gone from the first round. Of course, that means we'll have exit interviews on The Hockey Show as five more people join Ethan (Ottawa), Harv (Los Angeles), and Billy (Pittsburgh) back on the mainland after spending two weeks or less on Survivor: NHL Playoffs island! The rem...
The Cleveland Cavaliers defeated the Raptors 4-3 to advance to the second round of the NBA Playoffs. All grades are based on our usual expectations for each player. Donovan Mitchell 22 points, 1 assist, 3 rebounds, 2 turnovers This wasn’t a great game from Mitchell, per se. We’ve seen him play much better than this. […]
Barcelona signed Hamza Abdelkarim from Egyptian side Al-Ahly on loan in the January transfer window amid plenty of hype. The young Egyptian was described as being “similar to Erling Haaland” and the teenager admitted he was hoping to break into the first team. Abdelkarim had to wait to make his debut due to bureaucratic issues […]
If you had told me about six weeks ago how disappointed I would be at the Sox losing a 4-3 nailbiter and failing to complete a series sweep against one of the National League’s better teams, I probably would’ve told you that it was a good thing. And I would be correct! While today’s tight […]
The big news today came from a player participating in very likely his last game in Double-A: Braden Montgomery, South Side Sox’s No. 1 White Sox prospect, is joining the Triple-A Charlotte Knights on his way up to the South Side. Montgomery has been outstanding so far in 2026, slashing .313/.429/.606 and hitting six homers […]
The Cleveland Cavaliers did enough to get past a plucky Toronto Raptors team that put up a much better fight than we thought going into the series. Now, they have their hands full against a 60-win Detroit Pistons team. The Pistons didn’t look like the juggernaut they were in the regular season in the first […]
Welcome back to round two of the Canes Country Playoff Pick’em Contest. NHL scheduling has kind of messed us up but after some deep thought, I made a big boy decision and I hope that this is the best way to go forward. We waited until the first round was completely over and while two […]
