A couple of non league snippets

You must be absolutely gutted after 22 years loyalty for it to end like that?

It has also been announced all of his backroom staff have been dismissed. It must make it difficult for Gordon to stay on in his new capacity at the club.

 

Such a loyal servant being stabbed in the back.

I wonder how long he will last in his new role. Wouldn't surprise me to see him leave for another first team stint somewhere else, after all his experience in non league football is widespread and he's obviously well thought of within the game.

Running youth development and overseeing all the teams sounds good on paper but as he's a school teacher in his main job, I would have thought it would be a busman's holiday for him !

Pretty disgraceful treatment from the toxic element at Wealdstone. Bartlett's better off without them..... as they say, be careful what you wish for....

He was a fine player for Slough,what price loyalty

I see the Merthyr fans are complaining about the lack of water at the segregated away portion at Hereford.

That small shop ran out very quickly and it looks like no one went to restock, so all the Merthyr fans had to watch in that heat with no water intake.

[staines_rebel_Jr]

Merthyr reportedly took over 300 fans and so it is no real surprise the tiny tea bar provided to the away fans couldn't cope. For those who didn't go last week the tea bar was about half the size of the shed Sue used to have to run the club shop at Holloways Park.

Nice to see At Farnborough they had draught beer at the tea bar inside ground

First casualty of the season, Dorchester Manager Craig Laird has resigned with ex-Reading pro Trevor Senior taking charge.

[David Carpenter]

Will he be getting any new senior players in?

[Reading Rebel]

Just read an interview by Billericay owner/manager Glen Tamplin given to BBC Sport in which he say's 'My players have big hearts are humble and they are here for the right reasons'

 

Not sure you'd call Jamie O'Hara humble.

Matt Day and Luke Williams have demanded that their contracts at Hungerford be ripped up. Despite their less than professional attitude Hungerford have reluctantly obliged.

 

No prizes as to where they will end up.

As you say it is fairly obvious where both are going. Matt Day is probably the best defender I have seen play against Slough in quite a while. (League games only)

Our old rivals Leamington are bottom of the Connie North having played 7 lost 6 won 1.

Dave Tarpey signs for Barnet, that's a blow to Maidenhead.

I'm sure Tarpey has been approached by a number of league clubs and turned them down for good reasons so does seem a bit strange he's now signed for a struggling div 2 side.

 

Now the main man has gone I think it will be tough to avoid a battle against the drop.

[GlenSTFC]

I think you'll find Barnet offered the highest wages plus he doesn't need to relocate, they have top class facilities plus it's a safe move.

[Mark44]

Whilst I agree Tarpey leaving teh Magpies is a blow I believe they saw it coming bringing in the likes of Jake Hyde etc to partner Sean Marks up top
