Draws. Endless draws.
Another disappointing result meant it was another disappointing round of bets for the Roker Report gamblers. Every single one of us lost money, with Chris and Connor being the biggest losers with £75 squandered each. Fair play to them for copying each others bets though, a genuinely touching moment.
It may be blind faith but none of us seem to back Sunderland to draw, which is mad considering how much we love a tie lately. With that in mind, let’s see if any of the pundits are backing a stalemate against Accrington Stanley.

Danny - @DJRoberts22
Sunderland v Accrington - SAFC to win: We looked okay against Blackpool and, if Will Grigg put one of his sitters away, we would’ve picked up all three points I’m sure. I expect the same sort of performance but with greater reward. £5 returns £9.00.
