    I saw Dulwich Hamlet v Cheshunt a few weeks ago. Dulwich won 1-0 but both sides looked relegation material to me. I’m not surprised.
    Went to the match at home to Taunton a couple of weeks ago (I couldn’t get a spot on the coach to Ipswich that day - for the best!) and they looked alright. Thought they would stay up.

    Doubt relegation will make a massive impact, attendances will still be ridiculously high.

    Oxford City is my guess for promotion

    I saw that Walton & Hersham yesterday won their third straight promotion and will now play at step 3 next season. A pretty impressive achievement for a club that was dead and buried a few years ago and was then bought by a bunch of teenagers.

    Interesting playoff at the weekend as part of sorting out promotion to the Isthmian League (step 4) from the various step 5 divisions. VCD Athletic will be at home, playing for their place at their current level, against next-door neighbours Phoenix Sports.
    Phoenix won this one with an injury time penalty, so the two clubs swap divisions.

    Go on Dulwich :-)
    Down on goal difference.....just said they have the highest average crowd in the NLS.
    Wankers. Don’t like them. Not sure why. They seem a bit up their own arses. 
    I’ve taken a lot of abuse from NL fans over the last year or two but Dulwich didn’t say a word. Seemed like a pretty good bunch of people who said lovely things about the opposition after. 

    I couldn’t say that about Eastleigh, Bromley, Maidstone, Dartford, York…

    How come? Are you an opposition goalkeeper?

    I play around with cameras behind the goals and I get "shove your camera up your arse" / "shove your TikToks up your arse" a lot. Honestly it's fascinating how obsessed football supporters are with putting things up someone's arse.

    I wonder if people don’t like Dulwich Hamlet because a more than usual number of non league supporters attend their games, and it is jealousy.

    I think it's more that a lot of people attending matches there seem to consider the football almost as a secondary part of the match experience.

    It doesn't bother me, but it does make it a slightly strange atmosphere, a social club with football laid on.

    If there wasn’t a match on they wouldn’t be part of the experience.

    Possibly down to location and type of support...

    I enjoyed my first visit to Dulwich Hamlet for about fifteen years recently; I found it very welcoming. Unfortunately, the Dulwich v Cheshunt game looked like two teams slugging out a relegation struggle and it wasn’t a great game to watch. Dulwich just about edged it and deserved to win 1-0. I suspect both clubs will do well in the Isthmian Premier having been relegated; the NLS is a tough league.

    Aveley have been promoted to the NL South, which is even closer to Dartford than Welling is.

    Truro however, is a lot further away than Bracknell.
    Even if they do play in Plymouth

    Torquay and Taunton direct from Paddington and plenty of trains.   I ticked Truro in a day, and even had around two hours either side of the game to enjoy the town.
    Admittedly, all three of these games will be very expensive by train.

    Got chatting to some Norwegians at the Warrington game. Did Chester  City on Saturday, Liverpool yesterday and Warrington Town today, they said they love English football, back home to Norway tomorrow.

    I bet they paid a few quid for the Liverpool tickets.

    Are Truro back in Truro itself yet? I thought they were playing in Plymouth at the moment after they sold their ground for a Lidl.

    If you were wondering who to blame for Dulwich going down, well, literally as their last game kicked off I was moving into a flat ten minutes up the road from them. A little bit of that Charlton magic sparkle
