Sunderland unable
:
to escape London hoodoo
+
London, January 28, Pride of place in the Fourth Round Cup games must go to Tottenham Hotspurs, not so much for the fact that they beat their first division op- ponents, Sunderland, but by the way it was ac- complished.
A five-one victory was more than even, their most
optimistic supporters expected. Once again- the Spurs, who are running away with the Second Division championship, gave ample proof that the quality of their play is equal to the best in the country, and even the changed conditions of frost failed to put them off their stride.
After their 6-1 success over Derby last week, Sunderland were fancied as a good Cup prospect, but they could not escape their London hoodoo.
