bsp north/south/div2 round up

Quoted from Abdul19

Macc not won in 21 now, think Barnet will stay up by default!

Reminiscent of them avoiding the drop two years ago when they survived at our expensse because our run without a win was even worse than Macclesfield's

Quoted from Les Brechin

A useless bit of Hyde FC trivia...Scouse comedian John Bishop made 41 appearances in a Hyde shirt between 1988 and 1990, playing in central midfield.

Nothing new in that Les....just think of all the comedians we've had playing for us recently

Vital game tonight in the BSP south - might decide both aplay off and relegation place as Hampton & Richmond play Basingstoke.
here's the current table

incidentally I noticed that Tim Sills, a Town target from a few years ago, has scored 12 goals for Basingstoke this year whilst that old Town legend Ronnie Bull also pitched up there a few years ago

just to update - basingstoke won their vital game in hand and are now in prime position to thwart chelmsford.witht heir superb late season form i'm beginning to think we might we taking atrip down the M3 to that godforesaken hole

Quoted from Maringer

Barnet seem to have stayed up by default practically every year since they got back into the League.

That kind of thing never lasts forever. Coventry and Southampton eventually slid out of the Premiershit after avoiding the drop by their fingertips year after year. Someone will probably nab Mcleod off them this summer and then they really will be in trouble.

Looking at the table Forza posted I guess that means Dover is now no longer a possible away day

Wouldn't have minded that as none of the others are particularly inspiring

you're right on both counts! think the best we can hope for is for dartford to triumph - decent support, very interesting ground and the most easily accessible from gy

Call me a tight wad but IF they do go up, it might be a good idea to all meet up and car share near Lakeside before going over the Dartford crossing

All the money saved could be spent on better things other than donating our dosh to the the QEII bridge and on the return the tunnel  

I was at the Beaveree last night to watch Hampton & Richmond v Basingstoke. I lived near the ground until 2000 and I'm on secondment at Heathrow at the mo. It's a really nice ground with a couple of cracking boozers nearby(the Railway Bell and the World's End).

But I was more interested in watching Basingstoke as they will likely be in the BS South playoffs. They seem a well organised outfit with a bit of pace up front in Sam-Yorke who scored a cracking solo goal. They looked solid at the back as well, albeit against a Hampton side likely to be relegated.
