Sunderland 1 Crewe 1 With Crewe winning 5-3 on penaltties

 Historic 

The end of an era as for the first time in over a century Sunderland AFC failed to issue a programme 

for a competitive match. This follows a few years back the failure to publish a team photograph for the first time since the early 1880s. The once famous Wearside club also has a ground in urgent need to upgrading and requires a damn good clean. 

On the field the side has started 2023-24 poorly. Crewe took their penalties well and just about deserved their draw in the 90 minutes. 

Crewe seal victory with their fifth successful penalty 

                                                        The crowd was just 10,000+
