Very attritional game at The Sportsfield this afternoon, Littlehampton running out 1-0 winnders against Three Bridges. LA definitely finding their feet at this level, three points outsite the play-offs - although that would be a bit of a double edged sword to be honest, there's no way they are...

I did make the trip to Chatham this afternoon and, although the result went against us, I was not disappointed. What an incredible set-up they have there, a real reminder of how far Littlehampton have come in such a short space of time to be playing at venues like that. The game was a tight one...

I understand why you might feel like that (I've witnessed plenty of it myself), but its a little unfair on the vast majority of our supporters. If you look back through this thread or, perhaps more relevantly, last season's edition of it, you will find plenty of discussion on this very point...

Went back up the road for some more this evening; very pleased I made the effort. Littlehampton put in a second impressive performance inside four days with a convincing 4-1 win against Beckenham Town, who arrived in 6th place and on the back of three straight wins. Marigolds really running into...

Really entertaining match at The Sportsfield this afternoon, Littlehampton running out deserved 2-0 winners against top of the table Ramsgate. Haven't seen as much of LA as I did last season, they are a much changed side, but they were very impressive today in a game which most would have had...

Yeah, it was a bit of a damp squib to be honest. Crowd was only 190, lots put off by the torrential downpours. Game was very one-sided as well, with Littlehampton running out comfortable 7-0 winners. New striker D. Fender (I kid you not) scored 4. I've been relatively quiet about the Golds...

Plenty of people (myself included) from the row Bozza is in, and the one in front of it, still sit together in the front few rows of WSU (WG3).

After at least a decade of ballot failure I somehow got lucky today. Wasn't really prepared for that, not been doing as many miles recently due to knackered Achilles tendons and a very hectic calendar. Guess I'll have to give it a go now, though!

We've played Bognor in several friendlies over the past few seasons without incident. This one was arranged with about 24hrs notice and clashed with an Albion game, so doubt too many made the trip. Maybe if it were a competitve game in front of a big crowd it might be different, but the worst I...

We had no issues using our match tickets for free bus travel from Grand Parade in Worthing, but that was about the only good thing today. Waited the best part of 40mins for a 700, which crawled along the coast at a painfully slow pace. Managed to pick up a 29 from Old Steine to The Swan, but...

Sure, but as I'll be driving from LA to Worthing before picking up the bus I might as well park within walking distance of where the free zone kicks in. I'll probably play it safe and head for Marine Parade.

Resigned to having to use the 700 bus to get to Brighton on Saturday. I know the free travel zone starts in 'Worthing', but does anyone know exactly where 'Worthing' starts? I can see there are several stops along the seafront to the west of the pier - Heene Terrace, for example. Or does the...

It goes a lot further back than that. Google the FA Vase semi final at Gresley Rovers in 1991. LA has always had a fair number of troublemakers, whether that’s following Albion or their home Town team. Problem is the higher profile of games following recent success, they’ve crawled out of the...

No idea. I know the teams have met fairly recently in cup competitions, but wasn’t aware of any rivalry. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m not sure it’s that easy at the level we’re talking about. Who’s would enforce it, especially at away games? Wouldn’t surprise me if some of them have bans from professional clubs and have turned to non league for their ‘kicks’. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just more of the same really, although they don’t turn up to every game. Smoke bombs on the pitch after goals, some aimed directly at opposition players, really nasty chanting and goading of Villa players (eg. screaming ‘nonce’ and ‘paedo’ through a megaphone). Just so unnecessary. It’s great to...

I posted this in a different thread, but it probably sits better here. Much of the talk in Milan was about who would replace GS when he (inevitably, it would seem) goes after the World Cup. Potter is obviously out, which is quite convenient for him as I don't think he would have wanted the...

I landed from Milan and drove straight to Feltham for Hanworth Villa 3 Littlehampton 2 in the FA Trophy. Littlehampton looked to have won it with a Joe Benn rocket, but two very late goals from Villa sent Golds tumbling out of the competition. The less said about the bahaviour of some of the...

Much of the talk in Milan was about who would replace GS when he (inevitably, it would seem) goes after the World Cup. Potter is obviously out, which is quite convenient for him as I don't think he would have wanted the England job at this stage of his career - and history tells us that you only...

Yeah, maybe, but it's pretty inconsistent given the way players are taken out for the game when there's even a hint of concussion - never mind when they are clearly unstable on their feet. When the dust settles, and provided the injury list clears up, I think there are alot of positives to take...
