Le Bris shifts his focus after Cats' dismal finale

SUNDERLAND endured a shocking end to the regular season with their fifth straight Championship defeat.

Worse, they have only scored one goal in those matches as they go into a play-off semi-final first leg against Coventry City on Friday night.

The regular campaign could not end quickly enough for Sunderland fans, and head coach Regis Le Bris says he is ready to kick-start a new chapter in Sunderland's season as the Black Cats gear up for the big game.

Focus has quickly shifted to the prize ahead which is the only way to look at things given such an appaling end to the regular season.
