:13:49. > :13:55.a new manager for Sunderland Football Club after yesterday's
:13:55. > :14:00.sacking of Steve Bruce. Jeff Brown is live for us at the Stadium of
:14:00. > :14:03.Light. Spotted anyone? It has actually been very busy here
:14:03. > :14:05.today, but nothing to do with football. Sunderland University is
:14:05. > :14:08.holding its winter graduation ceremonies here at the stadium,
:14:08. > :14:12.this week. Sadly, Steve Bruce failed to stay
:14:12. > :14:16.the course with the football club. He was sacked last night after just
:14:16. > :14:21.under two and a half years in charge. For the past 24 hours, it
:14:21. > :14:24.has been the talk of Wearside. The Sunderland Echo runs off the
:14:24. > :14:27.presses this morning - the first time the local paper has had the
:14:27. > :14:30.chance to reflect on Steve Bruce's sacking.
:14:30. > :14:36.It was the home defeat to bottom club Wigan and the fans' reaction
:14:36. > :14:39.that finally led the owner-chairman Ellis Short to remove Bruce. But a
:14:39. > :14:49.record of only 29 wins in almost 100 games ultimately cost him his
:14:49. > :14:55.job after two and a half years. After the Wigan game, it was a
:14:55. > :15:00.matter of when and not if he would go off. The last couple of months,
:15:00. > :15:03.people have been very down and not wanting to go to games. Some fans
:15:03. > :15:07.have even been coming in saying they hoped the team would lose so
:15:07. > :15:10.that it would mean the manager got the sack.
:15:10. > :15:12.Some Sunderland fans had always been suspicious of the boyhood
:15:12. > :15:16.Newcastle supporter from when he was appointed. And two losses and
:15:16. > :15:17.one draw in the last three meetings with the old enemy did not help
:15:17. > :15:24.matters. The unexpected 5-1 humiliation at
:15:24. > :15:32.St. James's Park last season was followed this term by defeat at the
:15:32. > :15:38.Stadium of Light in the opening game. I thought at first when we
:15:38. > :15:43.were doing well that they would give him a chance. I think the game
:15:43. > :15:50.against Wigan was the last straw for a lot of fans. He has had
:15:50. > :16:00.plenty of time and spend plenty of money. The WHO would you like to
:16:00. > :16:00.
:16:00. > :16:07.see him in his place? A I would like to see Martin O'Neill. I do
:16:07. > :16:09.not think he had enough time. And I am not keen on Martin O'Neill.
:16:09. > :16:12.The debate over Bruce's successor has already started.
:16:12. > :16:17.Well, with me is Graeme Anderson, who has followed the ups and the
:16:17. > :16:25.downs of Sunderland Football Club for many years.
:16:25. > :16:28.Most people could see this coming, but not Steve Bruce? The we are
:16:28. > :16:38.quite awful that in the next 24 hours a new manager will be
:16:38. > :16:46.
:16:46. > :16:51.appointed. Should it be Martin O'Neill? I am not sure. Martin
:16:51. > :16:59.O'Neill is certain what the guy they wanted. Mark Hughes is also
:16:59. > :17:09.been mentioned. It he is the next manager, what sort of job will he
:17:09. > :17:11.
:17:11. > :17:18.do? I think he will be great. He also has the club at heart. Martin
:17:18. > :17:28.O'Neill was a Sunderland fan as a boy. Where are you surprised by the
:17:28. > :17:33.
:17:33. > :17:37.sacking? I was at that. He is a good man, a decent man. But they
:17:37. > :17:46.had a couple of winnable games coming up against Wales and
:17:46. > :17:56.Blackburn. If he had stayed on their mood, who knows? -- will for

:21:23. > :21:28.go through a forest that 100 miles per hour, it is very exciting. My
:21:28. > :21:35.brother is taking part as well, so there will be a bit of sibling
:21:36. > :21:44.rivalry. He is pretty quick, but I'm going to try and beat him.
:21:44. > :21:49.all dreamt about doing things like this, so it is just really reliving
:21:49. > :21:51.their youth. And for others, it is
:21:51. > :21:55.With special stages in North Yorkshire, Northumberland and
:21:55. > :21:57.Cumbria, as well as a track stage at Croft, there is a chance for
:21:57. > :21:59.spectators across our region to watch the spectacle as it happens
:21:59. > :22:02.and relive a little part of the dream.
:22:02. > :22:06.Now Jeff, with that late breaking news last night about Steve Bruce
:22:06. > :22:08.being sacked, we did not have room for our second Unsung Hero feature.
:22:08. > :22:12.I hope you are going to put that right tonight?
:22:12. > :22:15.We certainly are. Better late than never - and well worth waiting for.
:22:15. > :22:17.We sent along Commonwealth Champion swimmer Chris Cook to meet the
:22:17. > :22:27.latest contender - a woman who spends every spare minute dedicated

:22:29. > :22:33.to the triathlon. Sandra is a born organiser. She is the Secretary of
:22:33. > :22:39.Cleveland triathlon Club. She has been committed to the sport for 22
:22:39. > :22:49.years. She is always the first person you meet when you come to
:22:49. > :22:51.
:22:51. > :22:59.the club. She is so welcoming. She is the heart of the club. I was new
:22:59. > :23:07.to the sport and trying to start with one Sport instead of even
:23:07. > :23:15.three, she was so encouraging. She has helped me so much. She gives a
:23:15. > :23:24.and 30 a was a week to help the club. She is there all year round.
:23:24. > :23:29.She also does fundraising activities. It is not just as here,
:23:30. > :23:33.but people in the local communities. The amount of events she makes

:23:44. > :23:44.
:23:44. > :23:54.groups, is amazing. She also runs her own event, which is all down to
:23:54. > :23:55.
:23:55. > :24:01.her hard work. Does she find time for anything else? Well,
:24:01. > :24:09.occasionally. I used to do all they had none at myself and do training
:24:09. > :24:14.and mile and Shell was. Really, you never stop. I do not think anyone
:24:14. > :24:18.in this club would have done it without Sandra. She plays such a
:24:18. > :24:21.pivotal role. And we will see our final Unsung
:24:21. > :24:27.Hero tomorrow night. The winner will be announced at the BBC North
:24:27. > :24:37.East Sports Awards next Wednesday. Who knows, Sunderland might even

:24:37. > :24:40.have found themselves a new manager by then! They are hoping to confirm
:24:40. > :24:43.Martin O'Neill as their manager by then.
:24:43. > :24:47.Thanks Jeff. Now, get ready for the Aah Factor.
:24:47. > :24:50.This kitten survived a four-mile journey, stuck inside a car wheel.
:24:50. > :24:53.Ian Squires and his wife were driving from Beckermet in Cumbria
:24:53. > :24:57.to Egremont. They thought they heard meowing and even stopped to
:24:57. > :25:04.search the engine compartment, but it was not until they stopped at a
:25:04. > :25:10.garage that the kitten was found hiding in a wheel arch. Poor little
:25:10. > :25:13.thing, I do not know how many leaves it used up there. It
:25:13. > :25:23.deserves a nicely done a one basket tonight.
:25:23. > :25:25.
:25:25. > :25:32.Now let us see what the weather has It is looking a bit more wintry as
:25:32. > :25:40.we head into December. We have got a north-westerly breeze pushing and
:25:40. > :25:46.which will bring a few showers as well. We have had a few showers
:25:46. > :25:50.this afternoon, mainly in Cumbria, but they are pushing out now. In
:25:50. > :25:55.the North East, we have it clear skies and will see temperatures
:25:55. > :26:02.there for dropping down to-one or minus two degrees. In the rural
:26:02. > :26:08.areas, it will drop by a few degrees below that. The blue on the
:26:08. > :26:14.chart, is the heavy frost. Some icy patches where we had these showers,
:26:14. > :26:18.so look out for them first thing in the morning. It is a bat dry and
:26:18. > :26:23.bright start in the morning. But for Cumbria, through the morning,
:26:23. > :26:29.the cloud will push him. It will bring an increasingly heavier
:26:29. > :26:33.outbreaks of rain. In the North East, you will hold on to the
:26:33. > :26:41.brightness through the afternoon, but temperatures not reflecting
:26:41. > :26:46.that - five to seven degrees Celsius. Into Friday night and that
:26:46. > :26:51.rain continues to keep south and east. It will gradually clear
:26:51. > :26:55.through Saturday, but in the wake of that cold front, we can expect
:26:56. > :27:05.cold winds to continue over the weekend. It will have that crisp
:27:05. > :27:10.and wintry feel to it. Here is the summary and tomorrow, the best of
:27:10. > :27:17.the brightness. The best light ways on Sunday. Sandwich between our
:27:17. > :27:22.showers on Saturday. For Cumbria, always in the firing line for the
