Thought we could have a season long non-league thread, I know a few people on here are keen on groundhopping.
After Hillingdon Borough cancelled last minute last week I am heading to Raynes Park Vale v QPR XI today. Not a new ground but always good to make a ground tick "hooped" by watching QPR there.
Anyone else heading to a game today?

Nothing midweek due to strikes and weather. And I can see the weekend being a struggle for many non-league teams.
Had been hoping to do Berkhamsted but strike makes that a no go. Cannons Wood have recently left Harlow due to the pitch and are now not too far and play at Goffs Oak, could be a winner.
Anyone not going to PNE thinking of a non-league game this weekend?
Mentioning Harlow, I don't know if you're aware that Harlow Town resigned from the Southern League last week with immediate effect.
That is a large town to not have a club in the top eight divisions of football. I don't know if they were using the same ground I visited nerly sixty years ago, an athletics track?

Went to Biggleswade v Harlow last night, 8 goals, a red, a defender in goal after a keeper injury, it had the lot. If it hadn't had been for the absolute $hit trains making an hour long journey take 2 hours it would have been a great night.
However Harlow then curtailed their season and resigned from the league due to their incredibly poorly laid 3g pitch - surely they can sue whoever laid it for them?
Unfortunately pre-Xmas was a freeze out and very few games between Xmas and the New Year. I did manage to head to Fanrnborough on NY Day and then Hayes & Yeadings new ground for a double up with our game on the 2nd.
No games this week as the train strikes have gotten in the way. Anyone manage to get to anything? Any plans for the coming weekend for those not braving the 14 hour Fleetwood coach?
Oh and as a side note, ex-England manager Peter Taylor is now managing Maldon & Tiptree as you do:
🤝 Maldon and Tiptree FC are delighted to announce the appointment of Peter Taylor as the new First Team Manager. 🍓#Jammers | #COYJ
I went to Hendon FC the other weekend who groundshare with Edgware in Kingsbury. It was a tad chilly but a nice ground with a refurbished clubhouse and a plastic pitch.
The Football was not so good, our former Polish keeper Marcin B (I aint spelling his surname) was in goal for them.
There was a funny Scots chap absolutely laying into their keeper but it was old school harmless banter. I really enjoyed it though I was half frozen by the end.

Any local R’s get down to Arbour Park,because like most/all non league sides The Rebels are struggling financially,and need the locals to get behind them.

I'd been looking forward to FC IOM v Vauxhall Motors, revenge is a dish best served cold in the Bowl. Didn't go in the end, because the ravens are bloody awful and they are top of the league, and I couldn't face it. Turns out, it was a good decision.

Just seen a twitter post that he (Marcin) is looking for a club atm
Was hoping to go to Wingate & Finchley v the mighty K's tonight but not sure it will pass a pitch inspection.
A lot of games moved to tomorrow to try and beat the weather

Some of you may have heard about this but a minnow which plays in the West of Scotland League Premier Division, Darvel, just achieved one of the greatest every giant killings in Scottish football history. Highlights below.
Mrs R from Afar is Scottish and without consulting any references sources, informed me that: - Darvel is near Kilmarnock, towards the west coast - It used to be a centre for lace making - Sir Alexander Fleming, who discovered penicillin, was born there.
"Things had started becoming increasingly desperate at Loftus Road but QPR have been handed a massive lifeline and the place has absolutely erupted. it's carnage. It's bedlam. It's 1-1."

Thank you. I enjoyed watching that.
Darvel put a few good moves together & the goalkeeper was exceptional, but my biggest observation is how good the pitch was! A superb surface to play on.

A lot of engineering works on trains in/around London this weekend has scuppered a few possible games. Will probably head to the London Trophy match between Stonewall FC and Tooting Bec FC at the ground next to the Olympic Stadium.

Was hoping to go to Wingate tomorrow but events have conspired against me and I will need to go to the tip down the road from the Rebak instead!! :(
Saw K's get torn apart by Raynes Park Vale last night. Lost 4-1. K's copying QPR's terrible run where I think it is 1 win in 10 and only 7 goals scored to 27 conceded in that time. The club is dying on it's arse.

You'll be pleased to hear I managed to combine a trip to the tip and the Wingate game as well (seeing as they're both on the same road) Got there half an hour late and just walked through the gate for free. Wingate had already scored against the mighty Cray Wanderers, the second half was about as one sided as you could imagine as they clung on to a 1-0 win.
Their home game v 'Ornchurch got postponed last night due to a frozen goalmouth!!

When I went the other week to see Wingate v K's I was surprised it went ahead - the subs sounded like they were warming up on concrete!
From all at Chatham Town, we wish Clarence Tambe the best of luck with his upcoming trial with @SkyBetChamp club @QPR Clarence is one of the nicest people we've ever had the pleasure of coaching and is the latest Chats Youth player to get trials with a pro club!#upthechatspic.twitter.com/AG9NEcDPTS
