Re: Caterham Seven Car

Caterham is mass production compared with Morgan. Their cars are somewhat cheaper, but are great fun to drive. They take a lot of punishment on the race track. Not to be recommended for a journey of more than one hour as they are not renown for their comfort. That covers journeys to most of our opp...

London City Lionesses

I see London City Lionesses are relocating to Bromley FC this season. Not sure what impact this will have on club finances. I seem to recall them losing a big match here against Arsenal women due to the weather which may have helped make their decision. Wonder if the club is looking to replace them ...

And only one decent season; and that was at the Darts in 2017/18 alongside Pughy.

Re: Player news

I'm worried that it is deafening silence on signing players. Down this way Weston have already made 2 big signings - Like Coulson and Ollie Chamberlain from Taunton. Added to that or website is still plastered with Vanerama advertising - has everyone gone in holiday? The website still thinks the FA...

Re: News from around the National League South

Didn’t we pretty much swap places with them when relegated from National about 10 years ago? Since then, Bromley has built solid foundations first establishing itself as a competitive team in that league and then developing the ground. Over the last half dozen seasons it’s had FA Trophy success and ...

Re: Isthmian Premier League News

Burnsie was a genuinely decent fella and a great bloke to have in your team [ he wouldnt have put up with last seasons slackers ] , he really was a defender/midfielder but did have that one crazy season as a striker when I think he got 20 goals but next season couldnt hit a barn door except for a c...

Re: Isthmian Premier League News

I remember all that quite clearly. It was the year I moved to Dartford from Bedfordshire and became a Dartford supporter and gave up my Gooner season ticket. I was hooked instantly with the facilities, the team (top of the league) and a friendly bunch of fans. (“We’re gonna bounce in minute…” 😜) Wa...

Re: Isthmian Premier 2024/25

Bowers and Pitsea made an immediate return to the Isthmian Premier following relegation. Two penalty shoot out wins in the play off semi and final was sufficient. Perhaps we can take some encouragement from that although our record in play off penalties suggests otherwise!

Re: Isthmian Premier League News

It takes me back to the last season in the Isthmian Premier Division - I think our away record was 18 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss..... But then again my memory isn't what it used to be. How about last game of the season away to Bognor? Incredible away record that year. We only lost to Tooting (I’m sur...

Re: CONSTRUCTIVE IDEAS

Both the season ticket offerings and the sale of alcohol on the terraces is a great initial offering from the club on the back of the many excellent suggestions on this thread. A few weeks back I was at Bury Town and they were doing a roaring trade selling plenty of beer at their bar situated on the...

Re: News from around the National League South

Braintree beat Chelmsford 2-3 today in the Play Off Semi Final with the winner coming in the 98th minute. Chelmsford was 0-2 down up until the 90th minute then scored 2 in 2 minutes to take it to extra time. Worthing are at home to Maidstone in the other Semi Final tomorrow. Never like to see Chelm...

Link for step 3 leagues maps. No doubting the Isthmian Premier will make for nice local football next season.

Yellow = Isthmian Prem
Red = Southern Prem Central
Green = Southern Prem South
Blue = Northern Premier Prem

I’ll be at Felixstowe on Saturday for the visit of New Salamis with the Seasiders needing a win and hoping both Bowers & Pitsea and Bury lose to clinch runners up spot. If Bowers or Brentwood win the play offs they will be promoted to the Isthmian Premier. If Bury or Felixstowe succeed then the...

It’s the last day of the Isthmian Premier League season on the weekend and only one playoff place and one relegation place to be confirmed. Although the relegation spot ...

Also, when will there be some uniformity across the board with the different leagues over the docking of points? Re playing of ineligible players Mickleover -12 points. Harborough -6 points Torquay -1. I get it may have been because of the severity of the misdemeanor but it could have made a hell o...
