There is a car park at Stratford Fields, but it was full when I arrived but street parking available on the road opposite. Club house on site outside of the ground with bar open. Most of the ground is open to the elements, the only covered area being the stand along one side, next to the tea bar. The game had survived the rain but a heavy pitch meant that there was not a lot in the way of good football played. The hosts took the lead in the 21st minute and held it to the end. Visitors had a couple of penalty shouts turned down which ultimately led to a sin-binning in the 9th minute of stoppage time! Kicking off the year, I've done a 1pm kick off on the 1st, a 2pm kick off on the 2nd and now a 3pm kick off on the 3rd! Fairly sure I've never done that before!

They just received a sum (albeit small) as a former player got a pro transfer in Cyprus, or so I’m told. As for Curtis if he shows what he’s shown so far he is worth a gamble from their perspective in my opinion, with the added training and quality he’d get there they could turn him into a proper player. He’s a great lad, excellent attitude and is more than deserving of a shot. Edited January 5 by Winslow Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhodes Posted January 8 Author Share Posted January 8 On 03/01/2022 at 18:14, Rhodes said: Division One Langford 0 Shefford Town & Campton 5 A groundhopper from another Forum was at Forde Park on Monday: South Midlands League Division One at Forde Park. Langford 0-5 Shefford Town and Campton, Admission £6, Programme included, Badge £3. Burger and Coffee £3.60. Att 133. Forde Park has been 'on the list' for a long time, regularly 'thought' about a midweek night visit, but fear of the M40/M25/A1 has dissuaded me on numerous occasions. Thinking on a grey January B/H the roads would be fairly quiet, bullet was bitten, and I was rewarded. Extremely friendly people from the car park attendants to the lady at the tea hatch to the fella on the turnstile, who finished my sentence "Do you by any chance have any....." Badges, yes we do! In a little box on the turnstile. I heard a home sub make comment to the packed car park, so I should imagine attendance at Forde Park is normally around the 40 mark, local rivals Shefford, only three miles distant came with a few fans, but it was probably mostly at home for the holidays locals coming out for a rare game. As for the game, it was pretty one sided in the first half, as some clinical finishing tore the home defence, what is was, apart. Four up at the break, and I should think the home dressing room heard a few home truths at ht. The second half was much more even as Langford were much improved. However two from Metcalfe, two from McNamara and an OG completed a fairly comprehensive rout. I heard another hopper loudly talking about his weekend visit to the NW to a disinterested women in the clubhouse pre match, then heard him doing the same to some poor soul under the covered enclosure, my distance was successfully kept! Ground is flat standing around three sides, and on the other a small stand, rather off centre to be of much use, and a small covered enclosure sits the other side of the dugouts. Entirely fine for a Step 6 club. I believe I only need Raunds and Letchworth Garden City Eagles to complete all the grounds in the top two divisions of the SML. The programme covered three December/Jan fixtures, but was free with entry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
