Having watched a nail-biting Isthmian League North game last night, I decided to travel today to watch VCD Athletic in their Isthmian League South East match at home to Whitstable Town. I had never been to “The Oakwood” before and drove upto it from home in about 25 minutes, with the ground being situated in…

For the second Friday running, I went to an Isthmian League North game involving Maldon & Tiptree FC. This time they were at home, playing Hashtag United who sitting in eighth place, were four points above Maldon & Tiptree, although having played three games more. The Park Drive ground holds capacity for 2800 fans, with…

The drive over to East Grinstead was delayed because of a crash on the M25 but the ground was simple to find once I reached the A22. I was able to park on a road opposite the driveway to the stadium which took me on foot, past the rifle range and into the club’s car…

This Isthmian League North fixture on a cold Friday evening was a good opportunity to meet a good friend and enjoy football in a league I haven’t watched since a match at Aveley’s ground back in October. On that occasion Maldon & Tiptree, then on the verge of the play off places, narrowly lost to…

For my first game of 2022, I decided to revisit Maidstone United’s Gallagher Stadium for the Vanorama National League South fixture between the home team and their local rivals, Tonbridge Angels. The Gallagher Stadium is a modern ground, opened as recently as 2012, with a large main stand, offering 750 seats and a newly added…

This was a Southern Counties East Football League Division 1 clash, between two Sides who both see the London Hire Stadium at Hextable as their home ground. The game was played on a mild post-Christmas Bank Holiday Monday afternoon. Sutton Athletic, managed this season by Daniel Kelly, have performed way above expectations and sit currently…

For my first visit to the Lindsey Field I met a friend who lives locally, to join me for this Southern Counties East Football League Division 1 fixture. It was apt to visit Lydd Town for this pre Christmas fixture as they have the most festive kit (red shorts and green shirts) of any team!…

I went on a Tuesday night in the run up to Christmas, to see this Southern Counties East Football League Cup, second round match, pitching the bottom club in League One, Chessington & Hook United, with one of the high fliers in the Premier Division, Glebe FC. Chessington were moved into the SCEFL league at…

Today was a first ever visit to the Kuflink Stadium to see the home ground of the National League South’s Ebbsfleet United, as they played Concord Rangers FC. Ebbsfleet’s home ground is sited on Stonebridge Road in Northfleet, Kent and has a capacity of 4769 with 2179 seated. The ground was enhanced as recently as…
