Saturday 20th August isn't just a big derby day for the Tyne and Wearsiders, it also sees Bedlington kick off their FA Cup campaign with a home match against Whickham.

The doors open at 1pm with a juniors match on before the main event. There will be face painters and a half time penalty shoot out competition for children to take part in. Its sure to be a fantastic afternoon of local football, and with some American visitors coming to town, its our chance to show them what we're made of!

The FA Cup game kicks off at 3pm.

How much are the tickets?, Neil

Keith, I think its £5 and £3, or it might be £5 and £2. Its my first match of the season so I'm not 100%!

Thanks to everyone who came along today, fantastic weather for a fantastic day.

Everybody seemed to enjoy the new way that we're trying to do things, its certainly the first of many days like that! Can you let me know your thoughts on the day if you were there, what worked, what didn't work and what would you like us to add to the days events????
