Teams coming up from NL South and North..

[Chris Powell's mate]

Be handy for me if its worthing, not too far.

On the flip side, i never thought my team would ever be playing worthing in a league match

I never thought my team would ever play Manchester United in a meaningful match.
Look how that turned out!

Would like to see Braintree and Boston. Braintree have a larger away section than we will get at Worthing and Boston looks like a nice new ground

Loving Tamworth coming up.

A vast amount of drinking establishments within quite a close proximity to the club including the best pub in the country (according to CAMRA) 2 years running.

Worthing looks a good day out - but it's 4G!
It's one of the reasons I hope Bromley go up. Anyone seen the highlights against Alty? Apart from Myles Weston's brace, the unnatural bounce for the Bromley second tells you all you need to know about a level, but synthetic playing surface!

 

[Maldon Shrimper]

Watched the whole game first half Altrincham were dominate and took a half time lead.However Bromley then charged into a 3 one lead thanks the a certain Mr Weston scoring twice.Mooney came on later for Altrincham but achieved very little.Overall Altrincham look the better side but poor defending a set pieces cost them.

Yes, the second goal was bizarre, a long throw that bounced about 10 feet high in the penalty area and a player then just nodded it in.

AstroTurf pitches are the devil. 3G,4G, 8G, whatever they are it’s not right and I don’t care for it

It’s certainly no good for groin calf knee and ankle injuries, more pressure on the bones and joints.

They aren't everyone's cup of tea but are here to stay.A lot of non league clubs have them nowadays as they bring practical and financial benefits and are often a real asset to the community

Kassam-lite

..and is in the middle of nowhere with hardly any public transport. Horrid ground in a horrid location. OUFC are planning on moving I gather.

Would Braintree count as a local(ish) derby?

 

[OldBlueLady]

Would Braintree count as a local(ish) derby?

It's pretty much as local as Colchester, less mileage in fact, so, yes, definitely in my book.

 

[Tommy2holes]

Would Braintree count as a local(ish) derby?

Absolutely. Unfortunately it shows how far the club has fallen that we are now looking at a derby with Braintree.

Remember when this was a regular pre season fixture.

 

[S H Blue]

Live just 20mins from Brackley. Watched them 3 times this season. Similar profile to us, not prolific scorers but conceding just 37 in 46 this season.
Beat Bromley in 2018 FA Trophy. St James Park is not the biggest.

So if bromley go up they have to do a Sutton United and Rip the pitch up? Will they want to do this financially

They will.Harrogate had to do the same when they were promoted to the football league

Whether they want to or not is irrelevant, artificial pitches are banned in the EFL.

If they go up, they will have to.

 

[Flinty]

Assuming then they have committed to the League to do that otherwise they also would have been chucked out the Playoffs ?

I have a game Sunday at chase high I can almost guarantee that after 90 minutes on that my ankles will be sore til midweek. I know the pros operate on a different level but surely their bodies must take the strain differently as well playing on it 23 weeks of 52. Assuming it’s their home ground of course

I’ve seen so many players with knee problems have there injuries get worse because of this surface, especially when you hit your 30’s.
