Sunderland RCA The Barnes Sunday League fixture for Sunday, 10 January against Golden Fleece FC is definitely off.

The weather forecast and common sense mean that this Saturday's fixture against Birtley Town in the Northern League is also more than doubtful.

Good news: Davey Anderson’s recovery from his bad leg injury at Guisborough back in October has taken a fast track.

Davey had his operation at the end of last week, all has gone well and he can settle down for Christmas with the family, continuing to support the lads and a target of being back in full training in the build up for the 2010/11 season.

A serious knee injury, sustained in RCA's 1 - 1 draw away at Guisborough on 10 October, turned Davey Anderson's season from playing to supporting.

Dave's being on crutches has not stopped him getting to the gym and having physiotherapy. The good news is that he now has a date for his operation - the end of January. That's followed by a short period of complete rest and then the road back to full fitness begins in earnest.

The players and staff of Sunderland RCA wish Davey all the best for his recovery.

To avoid the risk of a water-logged pitch, the RCA The Barnes Total Sport Challenge Trophy match against Hetton Town, this Sunday, 6 December, has been switched from Meadow Park to Houghton Kepier Sports College, Dairy Lane Houghton le Spring Tyne and Wear DH4 5BH.
