Name
editThe name Fulwell 73 is a homage to Sunderland A.F.C.[3] (The "Fulwell End" was the name of a stand at Roker Park and "73" is a reference to the 1973 FA Cup Final, the last time Sunderland won a major trophy). Leo Pearlman, Gabe Turner, and Ben Turner are all Sunderland A.F.C. supporters.[4] Ben Winston, however, supports Arsenal FC.[5]
In the summer of 2017, Fulwell 73 announced their plans to buy Sunderland from chairman Ellis Short,[6] but in a statement to fanzine A Love Supreme on 21 June 2017, they withdrew their interest, citing the demands of the business.[7] In 2018, Fulwell 73 produced the Netflix documentary series Sunderland 'Til I Die.[8]
In November 2024, it was announced that Fulwell 73 would merge with SpringHill Company by the end of the year with Leo Pearlman and Maverick Carter as co-CEOs of the merged company.[9]
