ENGLISH FA PREMIERSHIP
Venue: STADIUM OF LIGHT
SUNDERLAND 1 MANCHESTER CITY 0
Scorer: Bardsley
We started off at 8.15am and after stopping at Carlisle for 20 minutes made it to Sunderland for 11.30am. Very cold but sunny all the way.
On Remembrance Sunday there was a tasteful and respectful minutes silence. This was the first time visiting the Stadium of Light since March and under new manager, Gus Poyet the Black Cats have rediscovered their fighting spirit. Outclassed for the whole of the match but fought all the way to record an impressive win. Ex-Celt Ki lined up against Yaya Toure in central midfield. He had a good day and was unlucky not to make it 2 nil.
On our return journey we stopped off at Gretna Services. I didn't realise the number of Sunderland fans in Scotland as their were a few bus loads of kids also returning from the game.
Personal note: 28th Sunderland match; 4th Manchester City match.
