3rd with 1 point in it might be a psychologically easier place to be. Fair play to Burton for giving it their all .
I fully expected Burton to go and at least make it difficult tonight. It's what they do best. We should know! Think that's 3 in a row that Sunderland haven't beaten them.
Yeah you're right mate. 2 wins and a draw v us. You always know what you're going to get with them. Apart from the 5-0 they've always been tight games. Credit to them.
Well played burton, I know Sunderland hit the post second half but I thought they matched them and played the better football.
Yeah I don’t mind Burton especially it was around this stage last season they kicked us and hurt us like they did Saturday. I wouldn’t like to watch their stuff week in week out but credit where it’s due it’s effective and frustrating to play against. I believe they have Portsmouth and Luton coming up too so it could be an impressive ending for them.
Yeah. Not only hard working and stubborn but they always have a goal threat. I didn't like them much on Saturday mind!
He is when you consider their playing budget. Unless they're in debt, I can't imagine it being massive given their gates, yet he's put together a good mixture of youth and experience.
And the grand total of away fans eager to see their teams cup final was 43. I think some of our fans deluded but them and their cup final syndrome can't be beaten!
Burton are one of the few teams in the League playing out their fixtures with no pressure but it is a highliht for League 1 players to play at the Stadium of Light.
