On November 6, 2024, Sunderland head coach Regis Le Bris took a tactical risk that ultimately led to frustration for the Black Cats in their Sky Bet Championship clash against Preston North End. The match, revisited in an "On This Day" feature, highlighted a decision by Le Bris that did not pay off, leaving the team and supporters disappointed. Le Bris, who was later photographed during Sunderland's December 7, 2024 match against Stoke City at the Stadium of Light, saw his gamble become a talking point in the club's season narrative.
