    SUNDERLAND will complete their pre-season preparations with a trip to Scottish Premier League side Hibernian.

    Steve Bruce's side will travel to Easter Road on Saturday, August 6 (ko 3pm), a week before the opening weekend of the Premier League season.

    Tickets will be priced at £15 for adults and £10 for Under-18s and Over-65s, and purchase information will be confirmed in due course.

    The game is the sixth pre-season friendly announced by the Black Cats, following matches in York, Burnley, Arminia Bielefeld, Hannover and Borussia Monchengladbach

    Wish he would have some games against Norwegian Stavanger area teams like Liverpool used to. For a few seasons they started off with a couple of games against some of the local sides here, good crack, good crowds 5-6000, when the normal crowd would be 2-3000.

    Exactly. After all, there's no point in playing the Barca's of this world and getting a hiding just before the season starts, is there? ;)
