Sbragia in dogfight for Black Cat future

SUNDERLAND boss Ricky Sbragia knows he could be fighting for his job as the season draws to a close.

The Scot insists he has been under no illusions since he succeeded Roy Keane in December as to the nature of the task ahead of him, but remains relaxed about it.

However, he is well aware of the penalty for failure with the Black Cats, having slipped to within three points of the Barclays Premier League drop zone as a result of Saturday’s 2-0 defeat at West Ham.
