Someone at the Sports Club has been told Welling have been told to submit a scaled down application which will be approved.
That figures - because Bexley Council owns the land, what it thinks will have a lot more sway. I've no idea why they thought Bexley would even entertain the first plan, though maybe it was always intended as a first approach to get something smaller...
@falconwood_1 you over Cray tonight to watch your U23s?
Missed it and as usual we play well and win 7-3.....Won at Lancing 1-0 on Saturday, but it's a long season ahead....am at The Valley on Saturday, looking forward to Nathan having fun with the Coach Driver
Not surprising he has gone shame as i liked him. He lost some good players to Barnet which didnt help and the players he brought in simply arnt good enough.
Yes it's only the Nations League, but it still seems odd to have a full National League programme tonight at the exact same time England are playing, rather than shifting the fixtures to tomorrow.
In addition to that, I've actually just spoken to the Welling developer about something else and asked him what the latest was on PVR - he said they were hoping to submit new plans by the end of the year. Because Bexley has so much leeway over this through owning the freehold, the fact that they seem to be in constructive discussions seems to be a good sign for this getting off the ground.
went to Peckham Town v Guru Nanak in the Kent County Football League - Peckham started a shambles but finally pulled their finger out after blowing a heap of chances and won 2-0.

Noticed after about 30 minutes that Ricky Holmes was in the Farnborough line up!
Richard Chin was on the bench and came on in the 2nd half.
(was nice to visit the Running Horse in Leatherhead again, at least...)

New ebbsfleet manager. That was quick.
They won 1-0 today with 39 year old former Charlton Forward Chris Dickson scoring the only goal.
