Five wins from six for table-topping #SAFC and another clean sheet that rarely looked in doubt after Chris Rigg's opener. #Boro once again far too predictable and didn't manage a single shot on target in the second half. Carrick's side really poor. But Sunderland soaring.

Wasteful and wayward on Wearside #UTB 🔴⚪️

The Northern Echo: Refugees are being 'dumped up north' #TomorrowsPapersToday

Tomorrow's The Northern Echo features a staggering exclusive by Tom Burgess. Refugees have been shipped to the North East by London councils. Vulnerable, unsupported, and moved without the knowledge of Durham County Council. Make sure you pick up the paper to read this 👇
