NEW YEAR AND NEW ROUND

One more day to go of 2009 and just two more before the biggest round of the 2009-10 FA Cup campaign so far.

With over half the target of £5,000 raised so far with the Runcorn2wembley campaign, I'm hopeful 2010 will see the the target reached and indeed exceeded. All the money goes to Cancer Research.

Eight people, including myself, will be at the MK Dons v Burnley FA Cup third round game on Saturday 2nd January, hoping to beat the current record amount taken at a game.

The record currently stands at £460.76, raised by the fans at Nuneaton Town's first round game against Exeter City.

Over 16,000 people are expected at the game on Saturday and Runcorn2wembley is hoping for a good collection total.

Coverage has again been coming in for the campaign with the Liverpool Echo featuring an update in the paper and online. Click here to read it.

Burnley FC has also featured the campaign on the club's website. Click here for the article.

Runcorn2wembley has also featured in the letters column of the Lancashire Telegraph. Click here to read it.

The coverage from all forms of media has been excellent and I'm hoping for even more as 2010 edges closer.

I'll preview the game tomorrow or on the first day of 2010.

Happy New Year.
