Brown makes a hot brown mess of Sunderland

On the eve of Sir Alex's 25th anniversary in charge of Manchester United, the Reds boss celebrated in a manner he's become so accustomed to down the years: by guiding his team to victory - more specifically, beating Sunderland 1-0. It was Wes Brown's own goal, on his first visit back to Old Trafford after leaving for Sunderland in the summer (our winter), that settled this morning's contest. There were two yellow cards, both going Sunderland's way.
