A couple of non league snippets

The Burnham chairman made the decision before the league season started and I believe from memory its going to be those prices until the new year.

Yes you're correct I was told it was season long but just till end of 2020  If you reduce prices by 50% you need to double gates to achieve the same income!

[SloughFlyer]

Having been to quite a few of the Burnham home games this season (possibly all of them now i think about it) they have more than doubled their attendances. Obviously having Slough not having fans has helped them, but their attendances have certainly increased loads thus far.

[Irishadrian]

Slough Flyer  I would expect a club allowed to admit paying fans to have a big increase in attendances so many fans of surrounding "elite" clubs need a live footy fix  hence I dont think a huge decrease in price was necessary to get them in the ground

[SloughFlyer]

Under normal circumstances Irish i would agree, but Burnham haven't attracted a decent crowd in many years so I guess they are looking and counting any increase as a good one.

Dulwich v Concord was called off last night due to Concord playing their FA Cup game last Sunday.

Not sure why they couldn't play it tonight but it's down as to be re-arranged.

[Reading Rebel]

Seems the Dulwich game was called off because it suited both teams and in the hope that supporters will be allowed back in the future.

David Pratt rejoins Supermarine from Chippenham who he left to join in 2006. He has had a long career and a number of clubs will add real experience for a promotion push.

Kettering v Southport postponed due an outbreak of covid 19 amongst the Kettering players and staff.

After just two games in our league just two teams have won both games for 100% records ( Dorking and Hungerford.

[Reading Rebel]

Good comeback for Maidstone at Havant after being 2-0 down at half-time.

And Hungerford produced another good win 1-0 away at Tonbridge.

[Irishadrian]

RR  The scorer of Hungerfords second goal may differ with this post.

[Reading Rebel]

Just looked again and Hungerford won 2-0.

[Reading Rebel]

Just seen that Maidstone scored both goals in the 90th minute.

Ex St Albans striker Joe Iaciafano scored both goals for Havant.

I think he lives Northampton way which by my reckoning is at least a 5 hour round trip so really not sure how he does that journey 3 or 4 times a week.

A bag full of cash usually persuades a player! For what he’s earning he can easily afford to spend a few nights in a hotel near Havant to save the travelling.

Yea you're right but still must be a nightmare of a journey.

You never know he may now have moved to a mansion nearer Havant or has a helicopter...
