Drop us your piece in an email – RokerReport@Yahoo.co.ukHi, I’m Joe. I’m 10 years old and I’m from Ashington. However, unlike the majority of people here, my blood flows red and white. It’s been passed down through my family ever since my great-great-grandfather discovered the world of Sunderland AFC.I am a season ticket holder in the East Stand and love attending matches with my dad, grandad, uncle and cousin.This is my experience of the York away day through my eyes…Over the last few weeks there has been a gap. Since we confirmed Europe on that magical day against Chelsea, I have been longing for the exhilaration – the highs and lows – that come with supporting Sunderland. Not even watching the World Cup could match seeing the Lads at the SoL. Finally, a chance to see the wizards once again.Thousands of Mackems and I woke up with visions of Enzo dancing around defenders. Me and my dad set off on a jolly boys’ outing.

The highlight for me was hearing, “Elborg, give us a wave!”, to which he happily obliged before receiving a huge cheer.York couldn’t break through the Sunderland defence and it was wave after wave of attack. This move looked especially promising as Tutierov played it through to Enzo, who chipped the keeper beautifully – but the flag was up for offside.Hume then played it through to Rigg, who was the coolest man in the ground as he dropped his shoulder and placed it into the bottom-left corner. 2 – 0.Just minutes later, Tutierov cut inside and fired into the top corner from about 30 yards. What a masterpiece from the young Ukrainian! 3 – 0.It’s been nothing but goals. The team look very promising so far.Elborg played it to Tutierov. What a game he was having! He picked out Le
