I got some time booked off today in order to go to see my home town team Kettering Town hopefully clinch the conference north title against Telford on April 4th!

Most pleased.

A 740 mile round trip though.

Glory hunter!

Doubt they will win it as early as that, though I reckon Kettering are dead certs to go up.

They were last season, 'til the mighty Celts dumped them out of the play-offs!

Farsley travel to Exeter tomorrow.. we could get something out of it anyway. And I bloody hope so!

Different kettle of fish this season, they've finally developed the ability to win the scrappy games as well as pass teams off the park.

No games for me today, next stop Burscough on Tuesday evening.

Woo. Semi-finals of the FA Trophy. The excitement.... It's almost tangible.

Exeter City fan here. You may find the trophy a mixed blessing, witness the ridiculous scheduling of your match v us, 2 days after your game v Turks.

Its all very complicated, your team will be knacked, so gives us the edge.
We all want to see the Turks stuffed, but part of us wants them to go all the way, and get into more fixture congestion, because we are hoping to catch them.

Many travelling Grecians regard the York away as the best one of season, the London exiles actually sponsor the game, and have hospitality. Many have prebooked weekend accomodation,etc, and cannot cancel, so are somewhat peeved at the switch.

Personally speaking, I am desperately trying to organise a very flying visit to game, staying at Mums (in Headingley)
You guys have pulled the season back from relegation, to near playoffs.

Well done.

Great results for Farsley today

Staying up is a real possibility!

This is true, however the ridiculous scheduling big has bitten once again. Torquay can't play us on Saturday because Plymouth are at home. Torquay get their stewards off Plymouth, so at little more than a week's notice, our game... away at Torquay.... is on a Friday fecking night.
Sure, we get an extra day before the Exeter game, but I'm stuffed for going to Devon with such little notice. I suspect I'm not the only one.

Anyway, defeat yesterday has quashed any hope of the play-offs. Another year of this tin-pottery beckons. Easy league to drop into is this, but it's a proper barsteward to get out of. Though I'm sure an Exeter fan doesn't need telling that.
Maybe see thee Monday week squire
