I decided that I’d make my midweek game this week, a Monday night affair, so came close to home, to the Cobdown Stadium to watch the Southern Counties East Football League Development League fixture, between Welling Town and AFC Whyteleafe. Welling Town’s Under 23 season has been slow to start, with just one victory and…

I took advantage of an early kick off today to go to see a Craske & Wells Memorial Trophy tie between Westerham FC and Tunbridge Wells Foresters FC. The weather was grey and cold as I approached King George’s Playing Field, home of Westerham. The ground has a sloping grass pitch and a nice clubhouse…

This week I headed into Medway, to watch a top of the table clash, in the Southern Counties East Football League Division 1. This is one of my favourite leagues, usually awash with goals and some brave and honest football. Rede Court Road, home of Rochester United, is a well positioned ground, with good parking,…

This game was played on a bright, unusually sunny afternoon. Both teams came into the tie with confidence high, Chatham Town occupying second place in the league with 24 points from 11 games and Ashford United a place behind them, in third, with the same number of points, but a lower goal difference. Dan Bradshaw,…

I thought this week I’d break the mould and not go to another Friday non league fixture, instead coming to the Rush Green Stadium, formerly the home of Ford United (now Redbridge) and Romford, to watch a Premier League 2 match. This league replaced the Under 21 Premier league in 2016/17, with a focus on…

A mild but dry, Wednesday, November evening after a week of heavy rain, brought me back to Potyns Field for a Southern Counties East League Challenge Cup (Second Round) tie. This season has been a really positive one for both tonight’s teams, with Snodland Town sitting second in the SCEFL Division 1 table, with 25…

For my second game of the day, I came to the London Hire Stadium, to see a Southern Counties East Football League Premier Division fixture. The game pitched Sutton Athletic, currently in tenth position in the league, against Deal Town sitting in fifth position. Sutton Athletic’s goals have been flowing this season, with Arlie Desanges…

The first of two Saturday fixtures this week, came in the Bill Manklow Inter Regional Cup at Crockenhill FC. Crockenhill FC play at Wested Meadow, a ground which was used to house a barrage balloon in World War II, then was bought by Crockenhill FC. Since then the club have added a stand, clubhouse and…

The weather has really turned this week, as the clocks went back and winter officially arrived. To be fair it was still relatively warm for the time of year if very blustery, and showery, which forced me to take refuge in the Sevenoaks Town main stands for much of the game. This Isthmian League South…

I was up in the Cotswolds, visiting my parents, so came to watch this Hellenic League Division 1 match. The fixture saw Clanfield 85, who sit currently 4th in the league, play Pershore Town, who occupy second place. Clanfield 85’s manager, Jamie Butt, saw his team lose narrowly, 0-1, last weekend to Southam United, which…
