We've just heard from singer-songwriter, Bob Tiltman, who was born and lived for many years in Mariville West, Ryhope and always follows both Ryhope CA and Ryhope CW.

Bob's done a song called ‘Ha’way The Lads’, which is an entry into an online 2010 World Cup Song Competition. He's hoping the North East will be able to get behind this tribute song to the England Football Team.

Solex Manufacturing Sunderland Sunday League 3 v 2 Gateshead & District Sunday League

Thursday, 18 February at Chester-le-Street Town

The Sunderland Sunday League, including four representatives from RCA The Barnes (Philip Hall, Martin Metcalfe, Paul Hartley and Jonathan Davis) and 'Sparky' Davison from the RCA Saturday side, won a competitive game against the Gateshead and District Sunday League on Thursday night to progress to a semi-final tie against either the Durham or Spennymoor League.

Durham FA have organised an inter league knockout competition for County Sunday Leagues.

The Solex Manufacturing Sunderland Sunday League will be taking on the Gateshead Sunday League on Thursday, 18 February at Chester-le-Street Town's Chester Moor ground with a 7.30pm kick off.

Sunderland RCA The Barnes have four players chosen in the 15 man squad for this match, namely, Philip Hall, Jonathan Davis, Paul Hartley and Martin Metcalfe. That's the most of any team.

An appetising youth football match is on offer at Nissan on Monday, 15 February in the Semi Final of the Durham County Cup. The kick off is 7:00pm.

Nissan, current undefeated leaders of the County South League, host last season's Youth Cup winners - our very own Sunderland RCA FC Under 18s - in what promises to be a cracking encounter.

Nissan won by the only goal in a recent league encounter witnessed by a very large attendance at Meadow Park. RCA will be looking to level matters and aim to book a place in the Final again.
