Manager Mick Mulhern reflects on the success of the club, after Sunderland's last league game of the season ...
"Its been a fantastic season for our club. We don't have the resources of the four that finished above us, in fact we probably don't have the financial resources of most clubs in this league. For a club of our size to finish fifth is a real achievement. To have beaten the top sides like Leeds, Chelsea and especially Arsenal, underlines exactly what we have achieved."
"I've got some great kids coming through, so hopefully we can build on this seasons success, in the 2010/11 season."
