Unfortunately, that picture doesn't tell the whole story and I fear a line may have been crossed after the final whistle with the setting off of fireworks and more smoke bombs being thrown around. Hassocks have now pulled out of hosting the Peter Bentley Cup Final next week as they don't feel...

The last block went on sale a few days ago, there may be a few left but looks like the full allocation (just shy of 7,000) will sell out.

There was plenty of parking this evening as they used an adjoining field as an overflow car park, although I imagine the crowd will be even larger next week for the final. Nice little set-up there. Littlehampton too strong for Hassocks tonight, even with a few players rested and after going...

Two midweek trips in 8 days to Hassocks is less than ideal, but there must be a reason why the following Saturday hasn't been selected. Maybe everyone is off on their holidays now that the season has ended (for most). Selfishly, the Wednesday works well better for me as I was double booked on...

Peter Bentley Cup Final moved to Wednesday May 4th, 7:30pm (still at Hassocks)

Yeah, I saw that - and it seems a fair assumption to make. Some difficult coversations to be had in at County HQ tomorrow, I suspect!

Awks, as my kids might say. Seems Newhaven might have jumped the gun in their earlier announcement. I guess it might be hard to rearrange at such short notice, but seems a bit harsh to ask Newhaven to play two cup finals in three days. Although Littlehampton had to play 4 games in 8 days...

Just got back from the clubhouse, where it was relatively restrained actually. Certainly not as raucous as the Vase celebrations, which went on long into the night. Maybe the fact that they are still going for another three trophies kept a lid on things. Wasn't the greatest performance today...

Heading up the road to see if Littlehampton can clinch the title this afternoon with a win or draw against 4th placed Bexhill. Hoping for a crowd approaching 1,000. Could be a dramatic day, Saltean are waiting to take advantage of any slip ups. The County League trophy is going to be somewhere...

Attendance of 356, apparently. Which is three times their average and almost double their previous highest crowd of the season. Just under 500 at Pagham and some big crowds elsewhere, too, by County league standards.

Another chaotic Littlehampton game this morning at Pagham. Trailing 2-1 and heading into injury time, with Saltdean poised to take over at the top of the league, Benn and Gaskin both scored late on to take their combined tally this season to 101 goals and earn three points for The Golds. Two...

I believe the rules were changed fairly recently to state that promotion cannot be declined, but if the ground criteria of the higher league are not met within a predefined period (18 months?) then relegation is the punishment. Either way, they seem very confident that they can bring the...

Another dominant performance from Littlehampton against a 'robust' Eastbourne United tonight, running out 4-0 winners against their 5th placed opponents in front of just under 500 fans. Two more league games to go, 4 points should do it unless Saltdean win all three of their games and make up a...

What a performance that was from Littlehampton. Going 2-0 down inside 12 minutes with an understrength side against division higher opposition, it didn't really feel like it was going to be our night. Never write this lot off though, fighting back to 2-2 and taking the game into extra time. Chi...

Vase Final tickets now on sale for anyone who wants to jump aboard the Marigolds bandwagon :lolol: https://www.wembleystadium.com/tickets/

Heading to The Saffrons tomorrow night to see if Littlehampton can manage to drag themselves back down to earth for the league game at Eastbourne Town. Going to be a really tricky fixture, I think. The home side have been inconsistent of late, but I expect them to take advantage of any loss of...

That was a midweek game in September last year. Littlehampton's support has increased exponentially as the season has progressed, inspired by our run in the Vase. I've been to several away games recently where the Littlehampton support has greatly outnumbered the home crowd (although it...

Only just discovered this thread as was posting in the Non-League thread :facepalm: So a few brief additions to the discussion. Totally deserved win yesterday. Men against boys, literally. The rumour is that Shay Wiggans has broken his elbow, which is a real shame for him and the team. Joe...

The game plan was absolutely perfectly executed. We knew they'd be technically good, so didn't give them a second on the ball and capitalised on what we thought would be their weakness - at set pieces and on the break. They seemed to be a little overawed by the ocassion and had no answer at all...
