Catts off for Adam Reed, Gardner off for Liam Noble and Richardson off for Lynch. All subs used now bar young Louis Laing.

Nearly a dream start for Lynch, who goes clean through but is denied brilliantly by Ingham

Final sub made for the Black Cats as Ferdinand makes way for Laing
 
Don Kitchenbrand- now theres a blast from the past. Always remembered him as a bit of a donkey but I do believe he scored 15 goals in our relegation season of 1958 which I guess wasn't too shabby. South African I think.
 
Sunderland saw off York City 2-1 as they stepped up their preparations for the forthcoming campaign.Phil Bardsley edged Steve Bruce's side in front on 13 minutes and Oumare Tounkara doubled their advantage shortly after the half-hour mark.Jamie Reed pulled one back for York from the spot on 64 minutes, but they were unable to find a leveller.

Steve Bruce says the fitness benefits of the 2-1 win over York outweigh the result achieved by his side.Phil Bardsley and striker Oumare Tounkara scored in the first half to ensure the Black Cats would start their pre-season programme with a win.But while Bruce was pleased with the result, it was the workout and the return to action of a number of key players which really caught his attention.
 
79 mins class so you got a bit of added suspence, it makes gambling that bit sweeter (dont gamble kids, unless your certain)

I always look at last ten mins, good bets are just to back another goal after 85mins, you'll often get 3-5/1 on someone like United at home, and it's quick payout, i make a canny wedge on these!

if you put a tenna on them to score in the last 10 minutes every game for 5 years you could retire...well you could get a speed boat at least :)
