[Football] The Non-League Football Thread- 2022/23 Edition

[Eeyore]

So one ends, another one starts.

Fixtures may not be out until July for our leagues, but the friendlies are coming in already.

Whitehawk have the odd juicy local ones...



Worthing and Newhaven. Might see some NSCers there.

Think I saw Worthing have Swindon. Be a decent test ahead of their step up if Swindon bring a proper side

Worthing also playing the Albion on 8th July!

Worthing also playing the Albion on 8th July!

A mixture of Albion Under 18's & 23's no doubt, not a first teamer in sight, if the past few seasons are anything to go by anyway.

And Wycombe

 

[Shooting Star]

Come on the Hastingas!

Think Swindon have to friendlies that day, so be a mixed team at best.

Still a good challenge for the mackerel men though.

 

[Rock Lobster]

Also rumours of a friendly vs Bournemouth U23s, where Tommy Elphick is coaching.

Hello again all. I think that the lack of a summer World Cup means I'm more likely to be neck deep in pre season friendlies. Combined with the fact that The Pan is out of action I'm probably going to be spreading myself around Sussex. Definitely visiting Woodside and I quite fancy a trip to Hastings as well

If you’re doing a spot of GroundHopping and haven’t before, I’d strongly recommend a summers game at Arundel. Just excellent

And Wycombe

The return of Stocko.

Oh thanks that's a great shout.

Looks like Swindon are at home to Cardiff on the same day - so I would imagine it will be a reserve/youth team travelling to Worthing

 

[Questions]

I’m going to watch a lot more of Worthing next season….. There are 3 or 4 of our group of about 12 - who haven’t renewed for one reason or another at The Albion - so if I fancy a beer whilst watching the match…….looks good.

 

[Whitechapel]

Worthing have just signed Jake Robinson

If that’s the kind of signing that Worthing are aiming for then they won’t be just making up the numbers next season.

I’ll second that emulsion, went there with Peacehaven a few years back. Lovely ground. (Got pissed and fell out of the doors of the mini bus in the car park of The Good Companions when we got back, and cut my face open. Funny what you remember)

I’m sure this was discussed on the last thread but can’t remember the outcome, can you drink pitchside Conference South?

 

[Braggfan]

Yes Conference South is ok, but not allowed in Conference Premier.

You can but a lot of clubs don’t. Whether that’s the decision of them/local authority/ground owners I’m not sure. I went to a friendly at Worthing with only 800 in attendance and felt an effort getting served so isn’t 2k each week going to be tricky?

Be interesting to see whether they bother
