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.

New Ground

Though not an avid ‘ground-hopper’, in the course of following non-league football I do like to visit new grounds, and tonight I belatedly added my first this season with a trip to Meadow Park, the Ryhope home of Sunderland RCA, which is a homely ground, little more than an enclosed playing field tucked between a modern housing development and an ancient cemetery, with minimal covered seating and standing but a friendly clubhouse supplying beer, hot drinks and hot dogs; the visitors were Shildon who need to win all three of their remaining matches to become champions, and step one was duly completed with a 4-1 win here tonight.
