Just seen in a twitter conversation between Montpelier Villa and Arundel that Villa are moving to a new ground next season

Villa are really a Brighton based club but have been exiled in Lancing of late. Wonder where their ground will be?!

Not strictly non-league but no doubt many on here have visited the Elite performance center for an under 21 match.

What’s the situation? They’re not strict on tickets right? I’m no longer an ST holder so would need to get the ticket from a mate but assume they don’t check against ID? If hassle I won’t bother
Yeh I wouldn't mind checking out a game there

They are taking over Southwicks ground aren’t they? Being made a 4G with a Premier League manager putting the money in?

FA Cup - Oxford City 6-0 Willand Rovers. Oxford scored after 15 seconds and the game was pretty much done from that moment. They were so dominant that in the second half a few Oxford players looked thoroughly bored of it all.

Gosh....that bought back some memories. Last time I went to Boston's ground was to watch them play Stevenage (Boro as they were then) about 2003 in the Conference days. I seem to remember Stevenage had Jamie Campbell playing for them at the time. No tickets/receipt for entrance issued and the money put into a biscuit tin. Are the stands still wooden? Game ended 2-2 with Stevenage finishing with 9 players.

As Albion womens team have not started took a young relative to watch Lewes Womens play.. In my peak played there several times and has always been a good club. On website and all media all they go on about is fan ownership and equality. However will never get me there again £13 a ticket is a real rip off and game was very poor standard

Lewes do say that the women are on equal pay with the men's 1st team and as they charge the same in admission you would be within your rights to expect a similar standard of contest surely.

I was surprised to see it stay at £13 to be honest, the quality in that league is dreadful after relegation and I'd be surprised to see other clubs that level charge that amount (Pompey didn't for example) I get the equality FC stuff, but the standard is low, and Lewes with all respect aren't very good this year.

The side Lewes played on Sunday charge £5 and Ipswich women charge £7
