Off to Eastleigh (my local club) v Torquay Utd this evening. Couldn't believe Torquay are bottom of the national league, seems they are being run badly in recent times.

Our last Lewes game was Three Bridges away, so the improvement you speak of is absolutely necessary.
I'm really looking forward to this (much more than I do for Albion games these days) so let's hope they're on it!

A regular follower of Torquay, I don’t think they are being badly run, they just don’t have the budget to compete, they’re making signings but they just aren’t good enough. Very leaky at the back.

My son lives close to the ground and I keep meaning to arrange a visit to see him with an Eastleigh game. It's a fine stadium.

Well that was bloody brilliant.
2-0 down against a very strong Hornchurch team, but Lewes never gave up and played some lovely football, resulting in a 2-2 draw.
Razz scored an absolutely superb goal, and then Joe Taylor, who had been completely anonymous, scored a very late equaliser.
Home games on the next two Tuesdays. I thoroughly recommend that anyone who has been considering it gets down the Pan - it is what watching football is all about.

I would have gone if it wasn’t for the salivating prospect of Barnet v Scunthorpe

Jack, do you have a target for number of games attended this season?

No I don’t, I think after the target of 200 last season, I burnt myself out last season (Sunday league cup finals at Orient’s ground was when I started questioning what I was doing), I’m just going to games when I WANT to, not ones where I’m forcing myself to. There have been games I’ve just decided not to bother with this year, but I’m still already on 73 for the season, so we’ll see how we go I guess really
. I turned down Mile Oak U23s v East Preston U23s tonight, because I was genuinely just tired, and I’ve stayed locally rather than North London every Tuesday and Wednesday, so I’m enjoying it more, having someone to go with is more of an appeal. Which every game more or less I’ve gone with someone.

Shame. But no competition if Scunthorpe are in town.
Piglets Pantry pies are on sale btw .......

Thanks to anyone who came along tonight - there were a lot of Peacehaven supporters at the game. The club are very pleased with an attendance of 343. who saw a very good (slightly frenetic) draw between two in-form teams. The draw was a fair result tbh. And for a few hours at least .......
Up The Barrowmen!

Pardon my ignorance but is this effectively the top of the old Sussex County League?
Elsewhere I wonder what Worthing will get attendance wise against Slough up against the Albion playing Chelsea at exactly the same time?
Over 1200 last week against Taunton, so even allowing for the loss of the Amex STH’s, hopefully still over 1,000?

NLF should get a boost during WC. Already pencilled in a few in the diary.

Dorking 0 3 Shots ,lovely day out in the Surrey Hills . 3 wins out of 3 since the manager was sacked. Small ground a little bit of cover in the away end but mainly flat standing . 750 tickets all sold ,so couldn't see much at all. Decent pubs around the Town .Train strikes curtail my plans for next week so it's a choice of 3 games Hermes v Stonehaven Dyce v Stoneywood or Aberdeen East End v Longside .

Not quite … attendance at Worthing was 968. No doubt hit by game at Amex at same time.

Yeah that’s right.
Few more Surrey based teams in the leagues now which is why it’s name changed. In the league below, 4 of the 17 teams are from Surrey. Dorking Wanderers B, Chessington & Hook, Godalming Town and Epsom & Ewell.
The latter will (in my opinion) be battling Shoreham for the title this season.

Not quite non league football but if you’re up that way, the Dons are at home to Hibs Friday night. The SPL are trialling Friday and Saturday evening football.
