Hasn't ANYBODY heard of any more pre-season matches for the U-23s and U-18s?

On the Crawley site they are showing a fixture against us on July 20th at Lancing, as we play Wimbledon the following day I would assume that would be the U23?

26th July - u23's playing dorking wanderers at their new stadium (surrey FA HQ I think)

Still not on the Dorking Wanderers website, I only work round the corner would be interested in this one. It is indeed the new Surrey FA HQ, have watched it go up rather slowly over the last couple of years.

Seems the U18 played a friendly against Biggleswade United a couple of days ago.... is the host the least charismatic person you have ever seen?



I think we won 3-1.

Wow! Just wow! - you're not kidding!



Still, we're hardly in a position to mock any other club's TV coverage, are we?

Just spoken with club it seems Birmingham will be POTG and Charlton details will be released next week.

Great, thanks. Been checking for Charlton tickets but will wait now.

Loved it - proper football, that! And well done the lads.

Perhaps we should send in the U15s next time to give BUFC a fighting chance..
