'Not good enough': Michael Beale's candid verdict on key Sunderland issue - and what needs to change

Michael Beale has admitted that Sunderland's away form is not good enough but insists that performances are not far off where they need to be.

The Black Cats fell to a 1-0 defeat at Huddersfield Town on Wednesday night, having not won on the road since Hull City on Boxing Day. Before that, they not won away since the 3-0 victory over Sheffield Wednesday in late September.
