Salisbury are pretty well supported I believe?

They had the highest attendances in the Wessex League last season, but Hereford get many more and that was at the same level.

Warren Bentley, winner of the Southern League Div 1 South & West and National Game Awards golden boots, has left Winchester City to join Gosport Borough.

Well, I expect we can confidently say that Non-League Finals day was a huge success.

Terribly organised, the FA originally said we could leave the stadium in between games and then backtracked on this on the day and said if we left the stadium we would not be re-admitted, which left us with over 2 hours in Wembley just standing around with nothing to do. Complete and utter joke.

Strange way of doing things with non-league clubs but always had a soft spot for whichever team I do well with on lower league football manager saves. lol

Really not feeling Bromley for next season. Soul has well and truly gone. Don't think I'll be renewing my season ticket. I am looking forward to the Palace friendly though.

Going to see my local non-league team, Welling United this afternoon. Playing Charlton in a pre-season friendly. Before hand will pop into the Door Hinge Micro pub for a couple of pints.

Dulwich Hamlet beat Bromley 4-2 today.

Welling lost 4-1 to Charlton. Charlton scored after five minutes but it was still 1-0 at half-time. Welling equalised from a penalty. Charlton scored three more goals in quick succession. A few flares were thrown onto the pitch and four numpties ran onto the pitch and gave the stewards the run around before being carted off by the police.

 

Welling played okay and have made a few signings. Hopefully will get promoted to the National League. Away to Dartford on 6 September - the local derby. Could be trouble at the game.

If you're interested Dulwich Hamlet are down your way at Welling tomorrow against Erith & Belvedere.

 

Hamlet also have a match against Charlton coming up shortly.

Just a word about the non league team that i follow and who i know have quite a few old school Chelsea supporters among their support - HENDON who play in the Ryman Premier Division. After 8 years since having to leave their Claremont Road ground and having had to ground share at Wembley and Harrow, they now start the new season in a home of their own at Silver Jubilee Park, Townsend Lane, West Hendon, NW9 7NE. 

 

To entice new supporters to follow them at their new ground they are playing a friendly against our annoying little neighbors QPR on Monday 18th July 19.30 kick off time and this is a 'pay what you want' admission fee, so you pay as much or as little as you want for your admission. Also for future league matches, if you show that you have a season ticket for Chelsea or any other pro club then you will gain admission for just £5.

 

It has taken years to get Hendon back to having their own ground and would be great to get more supporters through the turnstiles as it is quite a miracle how this fans owned club has survived without a home ground for 8 years.

Most Hamlet fans are breathing a sigh of relief at not having to go to poxy Harrow Borough twice a season and are looking forward to a visits to Hendon's new ground.

I can completely understand that, never liked that ground even before the ground sharing took place. Live down in Dorset now but still follow Hendon as and when i can and always use to watch them when i wasn't able to get to a Chelsea match.

 

Can remember going to the old Dulwich ground as a kid and being amazed at the size of the place for a non league club considering there was only a couple of hundred there and it is nice to see them doing well for themselves

Bromley beat Charlton 2-1 the other night. Was a decent game. Charlton looked poor though.

RE Hamlet's ground, yeah I agree really nice proper non-league ground. Watched Fisher play there as well, although they've just moved out.

Remember going to Bromley years ago and those famous wooden benches behind the goal! Are they still there? That was always a decent old fashioned ground that i liked going to

The feud between Cinderford and Evesham continues.

Some are. The others have been replaced by some plastic seats now that give you no leg room.

One wonders what Jose would have made of the ref at today's Winchester City match. A lanky chap with a chavvy, permanently gormless expression (the sort of person you see being chucked out of Wetherspoons at 11pm on Saturday night), he missed several handballs by the Slimbridge striker, a foul on Winchester's number 8 in the buildup to a Slimbridge goal, and two Slimbridge players switching numbers without telling him.

Just in case you lot might be interested, I thought I'd try blogging this season...

I went to Harrow Borough on Saturday for Winchester City's FA Cup match. We lost 2-1 after conceding in the 81st and 95th minutes, with a gang of gobby 12-year-olds giving it large at us throughout the second half.

BTW, what's it like being a Chelsea fan at Hamlet? I'd have thought that any Chelsea fan showing their face at the ground would have received quite a bit of grief/heckling after the incident in Paris.

There are a few of us, not many but I've been going there so long I take it all with a pinch of salt and I've always made it clear in that should Chelsea ever play there, a friendly or the youth cup I'll be at the other end.  There's such a wide cross section of clubs that the fans actually support that there's always someone else to wind up.

Winchester City's players pose for a photo before today's match at Supermarine.

As it's the international break this coming weekend, Sutton United are again offering all season ticket holders of Premier League and EFL teams the chance to gain admission to next Saturday's game at home to Barrow for just £10 (adults) and £5 (concessions), on presentation of their current season ticket. 

16 and under just £3

Winchester City have reached the 3rd qualifying round of the FA Trophy for the very first time, and their reward is a home tie against Dulwich Hamlet.
