due to a farce with the buses, I missed the 11am train thornaby to darlo, which would've made the 11.41 to CLS. but I ended up on the 11.26 , which missed the 11.41 by 5 mins (trains are never late when you want/need them to be!!). so with plenty time to kill, I made the short walk over the road to Hogans, where a nice cold pint of Strongbow was enjoyed :) the 12.41 to CLS was on time & a winner!! (only 3 TPE 185s are required now) , arriving just after 1. this league cup final game was advertised as a 1.30 k.o (as all games are throughout the season) but started slightly earlier, so some of the match was missed, but didn't ruin the day. the top 2 teams in the league (Stockton finished 2nd) played out a close game on a hot day. FT was 1-1, with ryton winning it in extra time.
after the game I had enough time for a brisk walk up to the station & caught an earlier than planned train back to darlo, this time just an 8 min wait in darlo was required til thornaby train :)
as it stands, I need 2 grounds to complete the DCFA U18s league, so hopefully they will be soon be ticked off next season :)
