Played 7 won 2 1-0 and drawn 5 0-0 must be spellbinding football to watch.
For not to concede in 7 championship games takes some doing like.
It’s an unbelievable record, at any level.For not to concede in 7 championship games takes some doing like.
I'm pretty sure Sunderland have achieved that feat a canny few timesYes but they have only scored 2 goals in 7 games, so may be playing 10 at the back![]()

Gianni Brera, the great Italian football journalist, who is still still something of a legend there even 30 years after his death, said that the perfect game of football should end 0-0.While it's true that the object of the game is to get the ball in the oppositions net, there are also skills involved in defending.
There are times, rare I admit, that a 0-0 game can be absorbing and entertaining, (for me).
Our 'Player of The Century', voted for by The Fans, was a Centre Half, while the most entertaining of forwards came second and a very effective local born forward was third.
However, were I a Preston Fan who had watched ALL their games, even I would have had more than enough of it with only two goals in over 630 minutes of play.

If these were Sunderland's results so far, how many would be raving about a record of 7 games without conceding.
That works out around 12/13 goals for the seasonAnd how many would be fed up of only two goals from 7 games.
