Hello James Copley from the Sunderland, I go come and join me in the day of a life of a sports journalist
00:04
I was covering the South Shields and Gateshead games here
00:07
You can see me getting on the Metro big fan of South Shields ground. Really really like it. The pitch was in
00:14
Fantastic condition. I have to say always really enjoy a trip to South Shields. Hey, you can see me doing a little pre-match prep
00:20
With the pitch in the background not a lot of people there when I arrived
00:23
I was lucky enough to see Sunderland squad arrive. You can see Leo Hjelda there
00:28
Joe Anderson as well coming into your picture new signing Alan Brown was at the stadium as well
00:35
Despite not playing
00:37
He met fans alongside other Sunderland players as well. So good to see them come in
00:43
Obviously lots of attention lots of interest from Sun and fans lots of Sun and fans at South Shields
00:48
There was a fair few kids as well at Sunderland in the squad Harrison Jones there Tom Lavery
00:54
Chris Rigg getting a lot of attention at South Shields after signing his deal a little clip of Sunderland players
01:00
Warming up here. You can see Tommy Watson in the background there Kate and Kelly as well
01:06
So good to see all of these players up close at South Shields. Very rainy though. The conditions weren't great. Thankfully I was undercover
01:13
You can see a couple of Sunderland's youth players who are watching the game there
01:16
From our vantage point trying to get a little bit of work done
01:19
Which was difficult with Sunderland's youth players sort of in the way, but thankfully they cleared out
01:25
The game was a good performance by Sunderland in the first half five nil up at halftime
01:31
The second half was a little bit of a non event really interested to see Joe Anderson player left back
01:36
I thought Eliza Mienda was good up front and
01:39
Remain Mundell on the left-hand side did well, so there was lots of talking points
01:43
Good to see a Adil Ushish there going over at Sunderland fans and taking a little
01:48
A little look and having a few conversations
01:51
He you've got Nick Barnes is his head in the background as we search for
01:56
Elliot Dickman to speak to him and then it was heading over to
02:02
Gateshead for the second game of the day not the best performance by Sunderland Gateshead really really accommodating
02:10
To us journalists though, which was really really helpful
02:14
Here's a little view of the press box with Sunderland playing in the background
02:18
It ended 2-1 to Gateshead in the end disappointing performance by Sunderland
02:23
But we did get to have a little look at Elliot Embelton
02:27
At Jamie Tettey in the midfield as well Pia Recqua came on as a halftime substitution
02:33
Here's the penalty from Jack Clarke a little bit of trivia for you Joe Grayson who was Simon Grayson's son was playing
02:38
Right back for Gateshead. So it was a busy day long hours
02:42
I had a lot of stuff to do as you can see me posting some social media stuff there play ratings
02:47
It was a very busy day
02:48
But you can head over to the the Sunderland Echo website for all of the latest content, which you can see
02:53
Flashing up on your screen now
02:56
And yeah
02:56
That was a day in the life of a sports journalist covering Sunderland nice to watch two Sunderland games in one day
03:02
I must say it was a shame about the weather. Thanks for watching the video
