FA Cup final day in 1937. And what a day it was for Sunderland fans. On May 1st that year,
00:09
the lads won the trophy for the first time in the club's history. Wembley was packed
00:15
for a tense and exciting occasion. The band played, the crowds were ready and the teams
00:22
were introduced to King George VI. Then the match began, badly for Sunderland. Frank O'Donnell
00:30
scored for Preston in the 38th minute, before Bobby Gurney, Rach Carter and Eddie Burbanks
00:37
sealed the victory for the Wearsiders. Rach Carter climbed the Wembley steps to collect
00:44
the cup from the King before being paraded on his teammates' shoulders around the pitch.
00:51
The famous win was headline hitting news in the Sunderland Echo and a packed town greeted
00:57
the team for the FA Cup parade days later. Share your favourite Black Cats moments by
