1994–95 Sunderland A.F.C. season

During the 1994–95 English football season, Sunderland A.F.C. competed in the Football League First Division.

Key Information

Season summary

[edit]

In the 1994–95 season, although a reasonable defensive record was maintained, Sunderland were lacking goals and as a result got entangled in a relegation battle which cost Buxton his job in March 1995. The board then appointed Peter Reid as temporary manager, in the hopes of keeping the Black Cats clear of relegation. That objective was achieved within weeks, and Reid was rewarded with a permanent contract.
