Half-hearted claims for a penalty are rejected. 15:34 31' Cabral and Fletcher race away on the end of a through-ball - but the offside flag's up to prevent what would have been a certain goal. 15:36 33' Darlington's best chance of the game so far - Chris Hunter's cross finds Purewal but the striker can't steer his effort on target. 15:36 34' Great save! Thompson heads a cross goalwards at the near post, but Mannone blocks brilliantly!

You know mate, whatever happens, it's one of the things that brings me pride in the club. US. I don't know if I'd love the club as much if it weren't for the fact that so many of us do! Imagine supporting Blackburn or some ****e man, **** that.
15:47 44' Half-chance for Sunderland as the ball is delivered into a dangerous area, but the impressive Jameson is out again to block. The Darlo keeper's looked commanding in the first half. 15:48 44' Another opportunity for the visitors - this time it's El Hadji Ba, whose shot is blocked after Clayton picked him out with a low ball across the box. 15:49 HALF TIME: Darlington 1883 0 Sunderland 2. And that's that for the first period. Two Fletcher goals are the difference and Gus Poyet will have been satisfied with what he's seen so far. Check back soon for live text coverage of the second half! Darlington 1883 0 HT 2 Sunderland
Sunderland AFC @SAFCofficial · 1m Pantilimon warming up alongside Giaccherini is a sight to behold! The Italian just passes the Bidvest on the keeper's jumper! hahahahaha
Drove past the sol today to have a look at the beach house (missed nowt mind) and as soon as it came into view the kids started bouncing up and down in the back chanting - we are all barking mad mate
Guessing second half XI will be: Costel, Mavrias, Brown, Diakite, Ferguson, N'Diaye, Cattermole, Giaccherini, DMK, Gomez, Wickham Very happy with that
Love to see that pic of Cos & Giacc, haha. Clayton is an insanely highly rated lad on trial is he not?
