Just a fun thought seeing as we are going to be visiting some different places next season we could start up a list of new and old non league bingo of things we may come across down there. I'll start off

1. Club shop portacabins

2. Fans changing ends at half time

3. Being welcomed

4. One turnstile open

5. Food Kiosk running out of something before halftime

Cheers mate.

6. Tasnnoy announcer dreadfully mispronouncing a players name.

7. They’ve come to park the bus.

7.No crowd.

8.  No crowd segregation.

9.  No official total for away fans.

10.  Chant (true) “did you all come in a taxI?”

11.  Portable toilets.
.
12.  Only 2 or 3 stands.

13.  Manure behind one of the stands behind a goal.

14.  Long distance away games at bank holidays.

15.  Very poor pitches (after ours has been relaid).

16.  Refs are ever worse in NL than the EFL.  I had forgotten that.  

17. Multiple games called off because of waterlogged / frozen pitches causing fixture congestion towards the end of the season.

18.      Three 15yr olds in cheap trackies thinking they are well tasty, giving it the big man to the away end

Chanting 'Loyal Supporters' to the 8 fans who have managed to make the trip up from Weymouth on a freezing cold rainy Tuesday night

19) small away club's bar running out of beer

Chanting....."We're on our way to the Football League, I don't care how we get there, all I know is Grimsbys on their way"

Goes something like that anyway lol

20) The 32 page match day thread after we've just been beaten at home by <insert unknown Club name> under 13 girls team.

OK a bit of an exaggeration, but you get my point.

Hopefully the new stadium manager can put a stop to this sort of behaviour at BP 😉

21) A toilet that's just a little gutter on the floor in front of a wall.

That’s an improvement to ours

22. Having to google where places are that we have to play away in the fa trophy

23. ‘Tinpot’

24. It's their cup final...

25. We should be hammering pub teams like this

26) An away end that is basically a ditch with a wall that probably doubles as the toilets.

27) visiting an away game where the vast majority of locals don’t even know there is a team...

28) having a game on bank holiday Monday and town needing that many tickets the team we’re playing give us 3/4 of the ground...

29 - some massive bloke who's been working down t'pit all week running the midfield at BP.

Pre match Hurst, saying they have had Kings Lynn watched and they will be dangerous on the break

30- Out of date pies at Altrincham.

Reading this made me feel a little nostalgic, and then I felt awful about feeling like that.

League games being rearranged because we have to play the Dog and Duck in the Tinpot Trophy on a Saturday.

Two for the price of one there!

That's every home game for as long as I can remember.

Who are Town playing this week?

"The Mighty"..... [enter sh1t team no one has heard of]

Big boy posts on here being proliferated with the word 'tinpot'.

Hurst Out. When we lose to some Shite

Moaning about England C

The promised land (League two)

If we get back up I'll never moan about the Johnstone's paint / checkatrade again

I don't care about the FA trophy, let's concentrate on the league

43 Player of the season leaves to join Hartlepool or Chesterfield.

Quoted from Garth

Pre match Hurst, saying they have had Kings Lynn watched and they will be dangerous on the break

44 - King's Lynn scoring 10 seconds after we take a corner.

Outnumbering away fans at some away games

Quoted from Davec

Outnumbering away fans at some away games

Why? Would we end up at the wrong game?

Or do you mean outnumbering the home fans 😆

Promotion back to the FL

If you want some, I'll give it ya!

The matchday programme having a 'roll of honour' section that includes a single entry something like " Essex Combination Division 2 champions 1953"

Home tannoy announcer sounds like a trainspotter (Braintree 😆)

Coachload of Belgians falling UP the hill after the pub (Dover)

Programme/radio/press talking about when we played the opposition  in the league in the 60s 70s 80s 90s 00s vs Stockport, Wrexham, Chester, Notts Co and more....

That's not specific to non league, it's just the law. Play for Town, leave Town, score against Town.

somehow it worse when its non-league.  I mean, I could deal with say young John Oster scoring against us for Sunderland, not that i think he ever did, better than an old John Oster for Gateshead....

(waits to see where Matt Green ends up.......)

It's not the John Osters who bother me, he was a good player for us. The ones who bother me are the ar*eholes who took their money and did f*ck all for us or the ones who were sh*t when they played for us but somehow still score against us. And Amond, it always hurts when Podge scores against us.
