Sunderland youngster Michael Spellman got his loan move to Whitby Town off to the best possible start with a goal on his debut against Nantwich Town. The Blues picked up their first win of the Northern Premier League campaign with the Black Cats loanee playing the full 90 minutes.
Spellman made his first-team debut for the Wearsiders earlier this season, coming on as a second-half substitute in the Carabao Cup defeat to Sheffield Wednesday. It's been a remarkable rise for the youngster who was playing football in the Wearside League with Chester-le-Street United.
The 20-year-old winger has joined the Northern Premier League side on a month-long loan with John Hewitson, currently interim boss for Sunderland's Under-21s explaining the reasoning behind the switch.
