Cats boss keeps cool after win

VICTORIOUS Sunderland boss Regis Le Bris turned his attention to next Saturday's Premier League trip to Brighton within minutes of steering the club to derby victory over Newcastle United.

Yesterday's 1-0 win over the Magpies at the Stadium of Light extended their unbeaten league run against their arch-rivals to 10 games.

Perhaps more importantly for the promoted Black Cats, the win eased them on to 26 points and into seventh place in the table.

Le Bris' players celebrated with a group photograph on the pitch after the final whistle, mimicking what Newcastle had done after their 3-0 FA Cup win on Wearside in January last year.

However, the Frenchman insisted the euphoria will not go to their heads.
