Scott Hendy former Mangotsfield and Bath City player has died following an assault on 2nd March

A 29 yr old man has been charged with his manslaughter.

Sad times.

Wasn't that long back another Non League player was stabbed in Crane Nightclub and died, I was there the week before.

We’ll find out in 2 weeks… hopefully not Mr Deaner!

It could well be the former Hungerford & Gloucester owners - Patrick & Nicky Chambers I think it is. They have been around Bracknell in recent months working alongside Kayne the current owner

No it’s not as I asked them directly that same question. It’ll have to be someone with money if they want to build a new ground for them.

Plymouth parkway have had to cancel 21 home games so far this season due to water logging.

They found an ideal club to ground share with but the league said no due to the ground not meeting their requirements of 20 covered seats.

Absolute lunacy from the league at this time of crisis for Parkway.

They now have to play 18 games (nearly half their league season) within the next 7 weeks. That's nearly 3 games per week for the rest of the season. The time for rearranging postponed fixtures is fast running out. You've got to love the Southern League and their total lack of common sense!

You really have to question the competence of those who run the leagues as they are worried about ground requirements, but have clearly failed to check the suitability of the pitch to meet the leagues fixture demands.

And what is going on with the “fit and proper” requirements of those running clubs – Taunton ran out of money well before Christmas – so what happened to the season ticket funds? – not spent on ground drainage!

Can't think of any 4G pitches that would not have the 250 seats required for Step 3

So must have been a Step 4 ground like Willand or Tavistock
