Northern Goals: Our non-league expert Mark Carruthers returns for a new season

This week we are joined by former FA Vase winner and BBC Newcastle non-league expert Paul Dixon and Whitley Bay joint-manager Tony Fawcett.

We feature goals from the FA Cup and Northern League Division Two after an action-packed weekend across the region.

Among the talking points are the goal scoring exploits of Seaham Red Star’s Adam Lennox and Sunderland RCA’s Mark Davison, Boldon CA’s 10-0 win and the how the Northern League newcomers are faring at a higher level.

Plus we preview the new National League North and Northern Premier League season which gets underway on Saturday.
