So for my second game in one day, on the opening day of my 2022/23 season, I travelled about 15 miles from Epsom to arrive at the Whyteleafe Stadium, where I would see Jay Saunders’ National League South, Tonbridge Angel side play Sutton Common Rovers, of the Isthmian League (South Central Division).

The 2022-23 season opened for me, with a visit in warm sunshine to see a friendly played on a high quality artificial surface, at Epsom and Ewell High School. I had been delayed arriving here because a lorry had shed a load of bottles on a connecting road near Chessington World of Adventures, so was…

For what I believe may be my final match of the season, I visited the home of FC Revo, of the Sevenoaks & District League. This league feeds into the Kent County League structure. Post-lockdown, last April and May, I had attended a number of games in this league and had been impressed with the…

This evening’s match was the Kent Senior Cup final played at Chatham Town’s Bauvill Stadium, between Steve King’s Dartford FC, who had only last week lost in the National League South play-offs and Folkestone Invicta, of the Isthmian Premier League.

I joined an all time record and capacity crowd of 4,175 at the Gallagher Stadium, for Maidstone United’s final game of a season which has seen them crowned as National League South Champions. The sun came out briefly, an hour before kick off on what had, upto then, been a grey and drizzly day. It…

The Tunbridge Wells Charity Cup final was this year played at the Culverden Stadium, home of Tunbridge Wells FC of the Southern Counties East Football league. Parking is good at the Stadium and the grass pitch looked in good condition, at the end of a long season. Hawkenbury FC of the Sevenoaks & District Premier…

I’d been to watch Gillingham Fc play their final match of the season against Rotherham at an early kick off, before rushing across to Hextable, the home of Sutton Athletic, to see the Southern Counties East Football League (SCEFL) Division 1 play off final. I’d been fortunate to see the play off semi final on…
