Estonian fan at the heart of Sunderland: tickets from the club and a meeting with the royal family

Postimees football podcast "Kesktormajad" welcomed a special guest, Sunderland fan Aivo Averin, who shares his extraordinary experiences supporting the English football club. Averin talks about how Estonian fans have jumped ahead of local supporters in the ticket queue and what adventures have come from connections with the royal family.

The 83rd episode of Postimees's football-themed podcast "Kesktormajad" differs from the usual shows, this time the focus is on the story of one special fan rather than current issues in the football world. Aivo Averin, a devoted supporter of Sunderland AFC, an English club, made his way to the studio.

Averin is a passionate Sunderland fan through and through, well known among the locals, who regard him as a proper legend. His adventures have brought him into contact with both Sunderland club itself and the British royal family, an experience rare even for the most dedicated supporters.

Particularly noteworthy is the fact that fans from Estonia have managed to get ahead of local supporters in the queue for Sunderland final tickets, with tickets coming directly from the club. This shows how strong the connections are that Estonian football enthusiasts have built with the Sunderland community.

"Kesktormajad" is Postimees's regular football podcast, typically covering international and domestic football topics. The 83rd episode proves, however, that sometimes the most fascinating stories are among our own, the incredible experiences of ordinary fans that surpass all expectations.
