Whitburn & Cleadon FC 2 v Hebburn Town U23 3 - 21/09/19 - ground #474 - New Fields

after a busy morning at home, I went to thornaby for the 11.40 to Sunderland, which was 7 late, after arrival at Sunnyland, I only had to wait a couple of mins for metro to Seaburn, followed by a short walk down to sainsburys to tick it off (even tho I'd been in 100's of times when I lived nearby, but wasn't counting them then!) , walked to morrisons for winners for train home, then short bus ride to whitburn & easy 10 min walk to ground. a brilliant end to end game finished the way of the away team. after bus back into city centre, had time for a pint in spoons (no winners on) before train home, which was also late, but no complaints :)

Hebburn Town Reserves 6 v Annfield Plain 0 - 02/09/17 - ground #445 - Castle View Football Academy

with 2 Hebburn teams playing in the Northern League & both using the main ground there, the reserves will be using this venue (I presume mainly for the easy access to the A19 for home & away teams). I departed Stockton on the 11.45 train to Sunnyland, arriving just after 12.30, then a bus to Castletown to the Billy Hardy Complex to watch Hylton Colliery CC for an hour or so. A few mins walk & I arrived at Castle View for the footy. annfield plain were sloppy in the 1st half & punished by 4 goals, which could've been many more. just the 2 goals were added in the 2nd half.
after the match I made my way to Wearmouth CC to watch the last hour of that game, but by time I got there, the game had long since finished! so I headed to spoons for a couple of pints of strongbow then did the 19.51 back down to Stockton :)
