What a feeling to be involved in a game of football again today, 18 months after my last. Long way to go, but the road to recovery continues!
STAN A
An absolutely outstanding 6-0 win on the road for Stan A away to second place Amble.
Including a goal for Ryan Bailey as he continues his return following long term injury!
Well done lads ⚫️⚪️

Fantastic piece on @owenbailey4 showing just some of what he’s gone through the last few years. Will be getting my agent to ask about my lack of screen time!
Owen Bailey's footballing journey at Newcastle turned from a dream into a nightmare due to injury.

Honoured to have been part of this special club for so long. Huge thanks to Dean & Andy and Decka & Geoff before them, all the great lads I’ve played with, the Colwills, Scott, everyone behind the scenes & the brilliant people who come week in, week out to support.
The final presentation of the night was a sad one as we bid farewell to Ryan Bailey, who first joined the club in 2014 and has been a loyal servant over the years, and now moves on to continue his playing journey.
Thanks for everything, Ryan! A true Heaton Stan legend.

Came running over to tell me how happy he was to add another appearance to my tally! A really lovely, genuine man who was a massive supporter and friend of all the lads. Hard to imagine being at the club and not having a chat with Brian

Legend 🐐
There were many great stories from Gateshead's FA Trophy Final win - but this might just be the most remarkable.
Louis Storey, now a three-time Wembley winner, played for 40 minutes with a broken foot.
More from the man himself here. sunderlandecho.com/sport/foo…
