    Aveley 1 Canvey Island 1, Parkside

    1st versus 2nd in the Isthmian League North. Good game and a fair result. Someone at Aveley has obviously got some money. Big new clubhouse and a 4g pitch on display, plus a laundry van that Karel Fraeye would be proud of.



    Do clubs still groundshare, last season I think two other clubs played there.

    Yes, I believe Grays play there. There might be another as well.

    Going to Santa Ana Vs Colmenar Viejo in the Spanish sixth division today, mainly as they do a nice tortilla there.

    Unfortunately not but it was a lovely blue skies warm day which made up for the mediocre game.

    If visiting Lanzarote take in a game in the Capital. Plenty of ex-pats in attendance, last time I went 4/5 years ago they had a couple of English players. It's (or was) the Spanish 4th division. 
    Always made laugh how they watered the 3G pitch at half time.

    Might do that to reduce the bounce?

    The North West Groundhop 4-6 March 2022.

    The Groundhop event is a great initiative to generate extra interest in non league football. The Groundhop also generates much needed income for the clubs taking part having larger than average crowds as well as enabling fans to visit new grounds and meet new people.

    7 games were played from Friday to Sunday,the first game kicked off at Golcar United on Friday evening and the hop finished with the final game at Ilkley Town on sunday. 

    Below are some pictures i took from the Groundhop.

    Nice little ground, although a bit of a trek if you do not have a car.

    Winchester v Mangotsfield yesterday in the Southern League Division One South.
    Yesterday was 'non-league' day and Winchester promoted this by offering FREE admission to everybody, which was reflected in the larger than average gate.
    Winchester won very easily 2-1.

    Felixstowe and Walton v Bury Town yesterday in the Isthmian North finished 1-0 to the home side in front of a very healthy 500 plus attendance.
