Sunderland Sunday League

RCA The Barnes got back to winning ways with a comfortable, if not that impressive, 3 - 0 victory against Golden Fleece.

Saturday, 13 March 2010

This was a must win game for both youth teams if a championship challenge was to be made with current league leaders Lumley.

RCA squad has recently been depleted due to players deciding to spread their wings and move into senior football. A squad of fourteen was further reduced prior to kick off when Nathaniel Crinson pulled up with a hamstring problem. The good news was that James Alston had completely recovered from an ankle problem that had persisted in recent weeks.

RCA entertained Stokesley in a vital top of the table clash, and the big news before kick off was former RCA centre forward Andy Jennings pulling up in the warm up and having to drop to the bench.

Sunderland Sunday Premier League

RCA The Barnes went down to only their second league defeat of the season to a strong and determined Paragon team by four goals to two.

RCA's squad was stretched to the limits with no fewer than nine squad members unavailable due to a variety of reasons, but mainly affecting the offensive side as they had no centre forwards available and the main threat from midfield - Martin Metcalfe was suspended - missing.
