Black Cats sack Bruce
Sunderland has parted ways with its manager Steve Bruce after 13 games into the season.
The Black Cats have so far won one match at home and one away and have a total of eleven points.
The next match for Sunderland is against Wolverhampton Wanderers. The two teams are tied on the same points and a loss for either would potentially leave them in the relegation season.
