I never knew that Bradford PA were such a big draw. Get the half and half scarves prepared!

it's one of their closer matches - so more away fans expected and probably more police presence needed - probably why that one is cat A

It's only because they could get them on a bank holiday. Brackley, especially over someone like Kiddy is the weird one.

It is relatively close in distance but BPA are one of the worst supported clubs in the division.

Hope it wasn't on here I saw it - I can't check 195 pages - but a Salford Fan actually received a tinpot award from the moderator of a forum after defending himself by saying "I'm not a plastic, I've been going since 2016".

Probably want us in cat b because we've not managed to play them away on the set date. Been postponed everytime.

They had 1992 on their last badge - what made them decide that the previous 111 years were now relevant?

In truth, marketing. Our new owners have been taking on board a lot of suggestions made at our last AGM. The design is essentially a rehash of the badge before last minus the heraldry. We can trace our roots back to the late 1800’s with Ilford Fc but nobody is screaming it as gospel. 1992 was the year of our merger as Dagenham and Redbridge.

Our Sheffield United-esq badge was woeful ( it had daggers crossed downwards which signifies surrender) and was never popular amongst our supporters. It’s been introduced to sell more merchandise essentially.

All in all another slow news day.

The trouble is that no footballer of repute would willingly want to go to the Isle of Sheppey.

If Canvey can have two football clubs...

Oh, wait, you’re right.

I’d class a sleeping giant as a team that’s spent a lot of time at a certain level but have dropped off it, so for the idiot to describe them as a sleeping giant because they might be capable of getting to a league they’ve never yet come anywhere close to, is complete bollocks.
