Three seasons in a row I’ve done Coventry United (A)
Not a single point has been earned.
9th division football in a 2nd tier Rugby ground is an odd sensation.
The chips usually save the day but yesterday, no chips.
Good thing the pub across the car park is one of the best in the country.

There he is. On the shelves in Smith’s (it’ll always be Smith’s) again.
It’ll never not be a thrill.
Read about my recent trip to North Wales to see Gruff Rhys via the brilliant Brondanw Arms & a wet afternoon at CPD Porthmadog in this months Football Weekends magazine.

Almost a decade of Tuesdays, or bank holidays, and obligations have stopped me from attending Bugbrooke st. Michaels fc (A)
Today in the midst of boxing up a house to move I made it.
Ground # 121
Good clubhouse. Good *fries, a decent hazy pale on tap and crucially a scrappy 3 points on the road.

Didn’t spot that I’d managed to book
a restricted view in the East Stand at Brisbane Road. It ended up making my day and framing pictures quite well.

3-1 up at half-time against Aylestone Park, a team that usually score 5 + against us.
3-3 at 90 minutes, here we go again.
4-3 in the 92nd minute!
Football, bloody hell!

Revisited an old favourite for the 4th time yesterday for a Welsh cup 1st round tie.
The rain had other ideas and after 55
minutes and a 4-1 away advantage for Denbigh the game will have to start at 0-0 again next weekend.
Porthmadog likely breathing a sigh of relief.

Ground # 119 ✅
G.N.G Oadby
A perfect away day. 6 goals scored without reply, new pubs, a healthy dose of nostalgia from the two years I spent living in Leicester and a timely reminder that diversity should be championed, not marched against in the guise of a flag waving piss up.

It’s not just fanzines this month, it’s a magazine too.
I wrote about our trip to Euro 2025 for this month’s Football Weekends Magazine, available in W.H Smith or T.G Jones if that’s what the kids are calling it now….

Parks to Pitches has arrived.
It’s potentially a good few weeks of releases in terms of things I’ve been writing.
My mum’s purse is going to be lighter at the very least.
