Chris Dickson? Do me a favour - I'd rather have Barbara Dickson. Callum Harriott, falling over the ball like a child; Bradley Pritchard, chasing around for the ball that he himself has lost; Joe Pigott, blasting a penalty in to Row Z at Dartford.
You may like all this hapless stuff. When Donny Rovers pitched up at The Valley, they weren't thinking "Oh, I don't like our chairman because he won't shell out" - they scored three times within 23 minutes, sliced us apart with simple, incisive, rehearsed moves.
What exactly goes on at Sparrows Lane?
This is a certified CL classic.

That second half by Hornchurch was why I will watch lower tier football when ever possible. No I don't just mean Cafc in the third tier but teams in the 7th 8th or 9th tier of the football pyramid. It may be "dog shit" to the word smiths on CL, apparently every time we screw up a few passes in League 1 that is a response by some, but its seeing plumbers, teachers, and candlestick makers as well as ex pros like Dickson and Muldoon, once of this parish play their hearts out at the part time level that is the magic for me.
Football from the sublime to the ridiculous. November 3rd was the last time Hornchurch played a competitive match. Hereford must be similar as last time I checked they were in the national League north.
How I envy Nash or Brown who scored cracking goals at Wembley in front of fans.One of my Brother's lives in Hornchurch and got a ticket and said it was a great experience again to see the team he was supporting win at Wembley. More Bauer and Mendonca moments of supreme joy.
That was a short stay at Erith and Belvedere! I knew Gary Alexander joined E+B as a player at 42 after being a manager for the last few years. Players hardly ever have contracts at this level and you seem to get registered in about 24 hours !
Chris Dickson is about 36 and will be playing for a few hundred pounds a week, depending on the local business folk who run the clubs at steps 3,4 and 5.
See him play for E&B the other week against Welling Town he didn’t do anything special.If you didn’t know who he was you wouldn’t have guessed he had played at a higher level.
He's been tearing it up for them. They have some really promising players playing around him. Hakie brings him on and defenses immediately drop deeper and open chasms

but it’s always worth a read from the start...

The beautiful game full of triumph and disaster.
Yes your right.
The leagues were stopped in November but certain cup competitions were allowed to continue.
