Andy Nunn Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Was hoping to go over to Croydon tonight to photograph their match against Guernsey . I have emailed several people at the club but no response ! Is there anyone on this forum who is involved with Croydon ? I don't want to be to presumptuous and just turn up without prior permission , any help would be greatly received ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Farmie Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Are you worried about the match going ahead or being made to pay the meagre entry fee? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Nunn Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 As far as I aware the match is going ahead ! I have never had a problem with paying on the gate and I am more than happy to put my hand in my pocket ! It's more a question of good manners I don't like to take any club for granted and just presume it's OK to come along and take photos . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no melts Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Spoke to our club and that would be fine to take pictures tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Farmie Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Look forward to seeing them Andy and hopefully you have the Press to shoot for this game?? There's a strong argument for having the local press in Croydon shot. The Croydon Ad has the worst non league coverage imaginable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smudge Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Maybe if someone from the Clubs contacted them it may help.They only now and again nick Match Reports from Websites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E&E Rich Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 There's a strong argument for having the local press in Croydon shot. The Croydon Ad has the worst non league coverage imaginable. You reckon! You should try getting coverage in Epsom, a Borough without a single Senior club playing in its boundary remember. I think it's typical of the way things are these days that local papers are of less importance to internet knowledgeable people. Take this forum for example. We will have usually discussed the facts, the merits, the controversies and looked at the match photos as soon as by lunch time after the game has been played. Four days later you might then see a report in the locals, if you're lucky. No wonder many these days don't make the effort to cover teams, especially those at Step Five. Luckily we all make our own entertainment on our own websites and forums like these nowadays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big J R Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Surely, it's all down to the local clubs to EDUCATE the local press ? If you don't have good liason with them, you can't expect good coverage ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
