Or spur them on depending on which way you look at it.

Jeanmal Prosper has signed for Bedford Town.

Has he signed permanently for them or is this on a dual registration basis to get him some game time/match fitness?

A massive dent into Worthing’s promotion ambitions today with their manager leaving to take over at York City. You can’t blame him as it’s a massive opportunity although they hang precariously just above the drop zone.

Can't blame him with the opportunity to manage a much bigger club and obviously a lot more money but would be ironic if York go down and Worthing get promoted.

With 10 games to go Chesham are 12 points clear with a vastly superior goal difference.

Nothing is certain in football but barring a calamitous finish to the season it looks like Chesham will be playing in the NLS next season.

Let’s hope they’re chosen as our Xmas fixtures and not Oxford City…

I for one am happy with that, gutted they missed out last season.

I like The Meadow; played there, kids have played there and I've watched watched there, hopefully we can have them at Xmas/New Year.

I’m guessing Oxford will be in the NLN if they go down, especially if Dorking & Woking are also relegated.

Yes hopefully, how great would it be to have league matches v Maidenhead, Woking and Chesham next season?

Attendance for Hampton match was 1,008 on Boxing Day, would Chesham be a bigger crowd than that?

All depends on league positions and weather really.

Chesham are averaging around the 500/600 mark.

With the travelling distance somewhere around 30+ minutes I'd say there's every chance attendances for boxing day and new years day would be comfortably over the 1,000 mark.

A long shot maybe, but looking at the NLP table it looks likely that three from Dorking, Woking, Wealdstone, Ebbsfleet, Maidenhead, Boreham Wood, Dagenham & Redbridge, Southend United or Eastleigh could go down (I'm assuming Oxford City as they look doomed). All except Oxford are further south than Chesham. Only three Northern teams look to be in danger: AFC Fylde, York City and Rochdale (assuming that they survive the rest of the season). It's very tight; only 8 points separate 21st from 10th-placed Hartlepool United! Needham Market are leading the Southern League Central, they may end up in the North.

Assuming that the other teams to go down from NLP are all southern and that Needham Market go up, the obvious choice for teams in the South to go into the North would surely be St. Albans (if they don't get promoted) and Hemel Hempstead. What would be the chances of Chesham ending up in the NL North?

I wonder how many of the 500 we’ve given them have been sold and if they do sell out if we’d give them anymore?

Not sure but I think for some reason there's a bitter rivalry between the two clubs.

Having lived in Yeovil for a couple of years, I can tell you they hate the “Muff” it’s a bit like Wycombe Slough from non league days, I guess this is the first and last time they will play each other for many years. .
