Lower League survivors from our ‘local’ leagues:
- CCL: Raynes Park the only ones left, following a shock 2-1 win @ my old club ‘Ramsgit’ currently in the Ryman 1 South
-HELLENIC: fared slightly better with two definitely in the hat for 2Q (Abingdon Utd who beat another Hellenic side & Ardley after their surprising win at Sluff) and Flackwell Heath are still hanging on – have a replay on Tuesday at last seasons’ champions Wantage
- WESSEX: representatives in the hat for 2Q are Blackfield and Langley, Folland Sports, Newport (IOW) and Winchester - all were up against opposition of similar rank.

Face a tough trip to long time leaders - Heathens involved in quite a few Cup games have slipped back to 7th but currently have 3 games in hand on leaders Highmoor - they managed a win in ET vs Southern Leaguers Wantage midweek - for some reason they have received a bye in the 2nd Qualifying round - presumably someone's been expelled or dropped out after the draw was made - will dig about.

.... bollards - missed edit window ...

My digging about has unearthed that Flackwell get a bye in 2nd Qualifying Round of the FA Cup, as they were drawn against the stricken Salisbury City.

As to previously postponed 1st Qualifying tie Round between AFC Kempston & N.Greenford - former have been expelled for using unregistered/ineligible player - NGU will have to play next Tuesday vs the re-instated (Northampton) Sileby Rangers who Kempston bt in the Preliminary Round.

[Elmer Park]

It's early days I know but with Highmoor Ibis winning again today and maintaining their lead at the top of the Hellenic Premier it got me thinking about what would happen if they end up winning the league. Does anyone know if they have ambitions to play in a higher league ? If so, would Palmer Park be accepted into the Southern League ?

Ascot United have also made a good start and are third at the moment. I don't know the rules but the only problem I could foresee with their ground would be the small number of seats. The club as a whole though seems better equipped for promotion if it came to that.

Despite winning today Reading Town clearly don't have to worry about such things this season but weren't they keen on trying to move up a level a few years ago ? Would Scours Lane be accepted if it ever came to possible promotion ? Obviously Wantage were promoted from the Hellenic last season. Anyone know what their ground is like ?

Flackwell Heath 0-3 Binfield - big surprise here against early pacesetters – though perhaps something to do with off the field events. Seemingly the inevitable change at management level, has finally occurred: ex-Sumas boss and long-time ‘Moles’ Assistant Manager and all round nice fellah Roger Herridge now in charge – so gets off to a great start.
Highmoor Ibis 2-0 Brimscombe & Thrupp – H/I keep up the pace at the top but paying crowd only 28
Holyport P-P Newbury – apparently water supply issues at Summerleaze
Milton United 0-2 Highworth Town – went to this - not a thriller – Worthians did just enough to keep a fairly punchless Milton at bay – missed a 2nd goal waiting for post H/T Cheeseburger
Oxford City Nomads 2-3 Ardley United
Shrivenham 1-2 Reading Town - important three points for Town to keep in touch at the foot of the table.

- In response to Elmer P's promotion query above:–
- Highmoor/IBIS can’t see how they’ll be allowed up to STEP04, playing at Palmer Pk. I suppose it wouldn’t take all that much - though funding would be an issue - to bring it up to similar standard to Guildford at the Spectrum? They might need to sort out a groundshare (already probably too late for next season) but there's nothing on the horizon that I know about yet?
- Wantage - last years' Champions - Alfredian Park is fully enclosed with seats/barriered surround on all sides and (just) met all necessary Ground Grading criteria once they had erected a large wooden fence down one end of their previously open-ended ground. This held them back for a couple of years as they had to get it passed by the Countryside Commission (or suchlike) as they are designated to be within an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' - with striking views of the rapidly dwindling Diddy Power Station!
- Ascot may well have issues getting their ground graded for STEP4 due to their proximity to the Racecourse. Doubtless 'Brenda/Phil The Greek' may not be too enamoured with a lot of Fencing being erected alongside the Mile Course. Maybe she'd be OK if they had lots of pictures of them or galloping steeds/gambolling Corgis along it. I also think AUFC may need the ability to segregate or provide what is known as '2nd Ingress' - ie another Turnstile - Thatcham got round this clause a few years ago by erecting a set that, to my knowledge, they've never opened.
- Binfield - would have similar issues with Ascot re enclosure/segregation and seats.
I have no info yet on applicants for eligibility to promotion for this season - I think clubs have to declare and be inspected by December. Bearing in mind what an unprepossessing dump Stalag Scours is - ironically it probably does tick all the right grading boxes for promotion - so maybe H/I could move in there for 15/16 should they finish in promotion positions. Doubt if Woodley Town would be too chuffed as they have just moved in but I'm sure RTFC would welcome the revenue.
By way of comparison; clubs I'd expect that would probably be OK for Grading, are (obviously) those who've fairly recently dropped down (Thatcham/Bracknell) and others who would need minimal tweaking - Flackwell, Highworth - though they had an issue with an adjacent Cricket pitch - Kidlington and Thame - which is a new build.

Thanks for the information Four. It will be interesting to see how the Hellenic League season pans out for the local clubs.

[Four Of Clubs]

Thanks for the information Four. It will be interesting to see how the Hellenic League season pans out for the local clubs.

... plenty of action in that league tonight too:

Ascot go to pre-season faves Ardley
Newbury host a wounded Flackwell - fresh from their upset at home to Binfield - who themselves travel up to 2nd placed Highworth.
RTFC face a long trip to Brimscomb nr Stroud, whilst Milton have to grind the short distance round the Poxford ring-Rd to Kidlington.

Tomorrow night: sees Bracknell up at 'Nomads' - who have been wildly inconsistent this season and finally current leaders Highmoor/IBIS go to Cirencester's Corinium Stadium to visit Wootton Bassett Town - groundsharing there for a 2nd season whilst their new ground is being built.

I might 'switch constitutions' .. and go Combined Counties league tonight: - Farnham host leaders Cove; Windsor welcome lone FA Cup survivors Raynes Park; Frimley Green play near neighbours Badshot Lea and there are two games around Woking both with 19:30 KOs (slightly more drinkinnining time )
Knaphill vs Molesey & Westfield vs Epsom & Ewell - will possibly pick one of those - if I can negotiate Bracknell -> Bagshot -> and beyond M3 in decent time.

[Royal Rother]

Guildford scored a fantastic goal against Windsor on Saturday.

A James Rodriguez style goal where he took a clearance on his chest 30 yards out then volleyed it into top corner through a crowded penalty area. Best goal I can remember seeing at non league level. Shame nobody had it on film.

[Linden Jones]

DJ Campbell has signed for Maidenhead United:

[Royalist]

That is bit of a coup for Maidenhead. Wonder how long they'll be able to keep him. He's 32 now so won't be that many takers from championship or league one clubs i'd of thought. Saw him a few times for Yeading in that cup run season and have always followed his career up the leagues. Great journey that he has had!

They added goals at regular intervals – were far too good with and without the ball for their STEP05 visitors.

[dizzynewheights]

Great afternoon at York Road Saturday as Maidenhead demolished Faversham – who in fairness didn’t look a terrible team but couldn’t match our organisation or fitness, particularly as the game wore on.

Ya man DJ looks the business, scoring one, hitting the bar and should have had another but for a dreadful offside shout from the lino. Looking forward to seeing how he does against tougher opposition.

[Royal Rother]

DJ Campbell is so much better than that level he should score a hat trick every game.

Being pessimistic I suppose no one expects him to stay there very long but what a coup - I'm actually tempted to pop along and see a game.

[dizzynewheights]

Was surprised he allowed himself to be cup tied tbf and I did hilariously quip about 20 minutes in that he was f*cking sh1t coz he wasn't just dribbling past everyone and scoring each time he got the ball

[KC Royal]

It should be said that Faversham are only step 4 (which puts DJ Campbell's performance into more perspective) but are one of the better teams in Ryman 1 South. They've been in or around the playoffs in recent seasons and have ambitions to get to Conference South once they've upgraded the ground, impressive win for Maidenhead. Drove past Faversham's ground earlier in the year and was rather shocked to see that the trees had gone! (after the storms presumably). Certainly gave it a different look! First time i'd actually seen it properly, you could see very little from the main road before. Quite thankful the game was at York Road as would have felt like i'd been missing out by not going if it had been at Faversham (it isn't far from me - the Kent teams Maidenhead play usually aren't that close really), as been contemplating seeing Maidenhead in Kent for 7 years since they went up to Conference South (grew up in Maidenhead and still have fond affection for the area - even if it has changed a lot since I lived there!)

Certainly going to be even more interesting to see how Maidenhead do whilst DJ is there.

The fact he allowed himself to be cup-tied suggests that maybe he's planning a longer stay. I wasn't expecting him to still be there come the end of the season but maybe that is a possibility.

Always found it slightly odd that the Conf Prem clubs only have to play 1 qualy round. Slightly out of kilter with rest of the non league pyramid & often leads to a lop sided look to 4QR

... two replays above - played tonight

Kingstonian bt Romford 5-3 aet (3-3 FT)

Farnborough lost 0-1 to a very limited but well-drilled Brackley - - Eric Odhiambo (points for anyone who remembers who he's played for - and there are quite a few) scored the winner on about 30' - finishing a move completely out of keeping with the rest of the match - though boro did press desperately near the end - merely let Brackley demonstrate how doggedly they can defend under the high ball.

"Magic of the Cup" eh?
----- The only wonder, was how I managed to stay awake through 90' of that stale over-coached dross - give me the thrills of North Baaarks League any day of the week!

£12 b%stard quid to get in too - actually that's about the norm for STEP02 now....

'Dugout' Bar was cozy though ... and they are finally letting people sit in that gert big stand down one end - had stood empty and unused for yonks - presumably opened sometime last season when Paddy Power took over sponsorship?
