Introduction


Can each day be headlined by a word (or two) and represented by a single sentence?

Will they, in turn, weave together to form a tapestry of the year?

It may be more mundane than momentous, but it’s mine to share.

FA Cup

The long road to the FA Cup final at Wembley next May starts this weekend and although none of the teams playing in today’s extra-preliminary round have a hope of reaching it, there is much fun and excitement to be had trying; the match I went to at Newton Aycliffe was close fought with the visitors, Garforth Town, coming from a goal down to edge it 2-1, providing the ‘crowd’ of 136 (not including the three dogs) with a good afternoon’s entertainment to get the season underway.
