Sunderland’s game at Oldham Athletic has been delayed – due to an accident on the M62.
The Black Cats travel to Boundary Park this evening in the Papa John’s Trophy, but traffic meant they arrived at the ground just 40 minutes prior to the scheduled 6pm kick-off.
But kick-off has been delayed by twenty minutes.
Confirming the news on social media, Sunderland AFC said: “Tonight's game @OfficialOAFC has been delayed due to travel disruption in the local area. The game will now kick-off at 6.20pm.”
