Sunderland AFC U21s


Jacob Carney is 30 and not 31
Caden Kelly is 34 and not 60

Well done for noticing. I am telling you, every single players at under 18 level and above has a number, you should know this HettonBot. If you dont think im right ask your family member who was in the academy

Those numbers announced today are 1st team squad numbers.
The numbers that U21s had were numbers given to them for the pre season friendlies. So I believe
 
Michael spellman getting a squad number. We'll done to him, he must be making an impression.

Not bad for someone who was signed purely as a u21 squad filler as was suggested on here
Looking at the 2 goals against Norwich Spellman provided the assist for both. They were very short clips but it was quality play from Spellman. Maybe Sunderland see a bit of potential in him. We seemed to have made a subtle shift from signing squad fillers like Richardson and Wilding to players with potential to progress on. A lot of the work seems to be repairs after Stewart Donald decimated the youth set up - you certainly change that over night.

Rigg was the best player on the pitch I was told with Sohna a close second.
