Last night's Suffolk Non League Show, I wouldn't bother if I were you:

The other Non League Football Show from earlier today with presenter Tim Fuell and, unfortunately, co-presenter Dave Anderson so sadly it's not really worth listening to despite some excellent content in the show:

The Non League Football Show / 26th March 2021 - FA Trophy Semi Finals: Hornchurch and Hereford (audioboom.com)

As the FA Trophy hits semi-final stage Tim Fuell and Dave Anderson speak to two old friends of the show. First up, Colin McBride, one-time manager, one-time owner/Chairman, now Vice Chairman of Step 3 Hornchurch FC who travel this weekend for a one-off game at Notts County, with a Wembley final at stake. Including a discussion about old skool v new skool approaches to management, it's an interesting insight into how a football club with only games in the FA Trophy keeps going.
Steve Burr is no stranger to the FA Trophy with a final appearance as a player and two semi-final defeats as a manager. Now as Assistant Manager with Hereford he hopes to get to Wembley by beating Woking this weekend. Another club whose league programme has been suspended, Steve also chats about his feelings as a Macclesfield legend of the next chapter in that 'club's' history.
Rounding up the news in the managerial merry-go-round of non league this week and what's in this weekend's paper is The Non League Paper's Senior Writer David RIchardson.

Roll on 2.00pm and Ollie Bayliss's BBC Three Counties Radio Non League Show, Ollie will discuss the return of grassroots football from tomorrow as well as the anarchy in the National League who only have themselves to blame don't they. At least Boreham Wood won't be featured this week as they didn't play in midweek and were thankfully due to host Dover Athletic yesterday, it gets rather tiring having to listen to their boss Luke Garrard moaning every week:

I don't know if anyone is interested but there is a Kent Non League podcast every week, this one is quite a good listen as it has Dover Athletic Chairman Jim Parmenter on:

Kent Non-League Podcast - Episode 165 by KentNonLeaguePodcast (soundcloud.com)

After an eventful week in the world of non-league football in Kent, we have a bumper show for you this week. Dover have had their record expunged, been fined £40,000 and had 12 points deducted for next season, and we give our own views on that as well as hearing from Whites chairman Jim Parmenter about why he doesn't accept those sanctions. We also have two managerial changes to discuss - Tony Russell tells us in detail why he has decided the time was right to move on from Cray Wanderers, and we also look at Neil Smith's departure from Bromley, and the news of his replacement. Plus we discuss (and make up) the Broadstairs Bimbos, Line of Duty, Unforgotten and lots more

Monday evening's Suffolk Non League Show should anyone, in the unlikely event, be interested:

The other Non League Football Show is already on-line from earlier today (Good Friday) with presenter Tim Fuell and, unfortunately, co-presenter Dave Anderson so you may not want to bother although Julian Dicks is obviously a good listen:

The Non League Football Show / 2nd April 2021 - National League turmoil and Julian Dicks back at Heybridge Swifts (audioboom.com)

Senior Writer at The Non League Paper David Richardson helps Dave Anderson and Tim Fuell decipher the developments in the past week in the tumultuous season in the National League. From no relegation, through points deductions and fines, agent fees and a call for a vote of no confidence in the board.
Our guest this week is no stranger to the show but having had another spell coaching back in the Premier League he has returned to non league and his old club Heybridge Swifts for unfinished business. Former West Ham, Liverpool and Birmingham player Julian Dicks admits he just loves football and is looking forward to putting his new part-timers through their paces in training in sessions that will be no different from those he used at West Ham and West Brom as a coach.

Ollie Bayliss is currently tight lipped about what and who will be featured on his BBC Three Counties Radio Non League Show on this Easter Sunday however no doubt Boreham Wood will play a part following their 0-0 draw with top of the table Sutton United at Meadow Park on Friday, they have now drawn eight of their last nine League fixtures. Roll on 2.00pm:

The Suffolk Non League Show was unfortunately on last night (Monday), if, in the unlikely event, anybody is interested:

Today's episode of the other Non League Show is worth listening to, it's bitter sweet because although Dave Anderson is unfortunately on the show in the beginning as a guest, he has recently joined Barnet as a goalkeeping coach so thankfully won't be involved in future as a co-presenter. The interview with Guildford City boss Paul Barnes is interesting ahead of their FA Vase Third Round tie against Walton & Hersham tomorrow with the winners travelling to Leighton Town next Saturday: 

The Non League Football Show / 09th April 2021 - Dave Anderson departs & Paul Barnes on Guildford CIty & the FA Vase (audioboom.com)

As the FA Vase returns with four unplayed Third Round ties Tim Fuell speaks to new Guildford City manager Paul Barnes about taking on a new job in lockdown, preparing for a season, one competitive game at a time and his career thus far in non league.
Before that Dave Anderson bows out from the show whilst he takes some gardening leave to concentrate on his new role coaching the goalkeepers at Barnet in the National League alongside Simon Bassey.
Plus David Richardson provides his round up of the week's news and views from Non League Paper Towers.

Lets get ready to rumble folks, Ollie Bayliss's BBC Three Counties Radio Non League Show at 2.00pm will definitely be worth listening to today as Ollie will be talking to new Stotfold supremo Brett Donnelly, also featured on the show will be Biggleswade United, Shefford Town & Campton and former SSML Club St Margaretsbury. Boreham Wood had yet another draw last Monday, 2-2 at home to Hartlepool United, however they beat Wealdstone 3-1 yesterday at Meadow Park so no doubt boss Luke Garrard will be on the show.

This pretty much says it all about the Suffolk Non League Show, episode 35 which went out last Wednesday was all about, wait for it, Ipswich Town and the recent takeover at Portman Road, what on earth is that all about. Last night's show was mildly interesting and featured the forthcoming Pyramid Restructuring however I wouldn't bother:

Just to say that it's him, Dave Anderson, I wonder what sort of increase there is going to be in listening figures for the Non League Show on Friday:

It was literally like paradise and heaven put together today listening to the other Non League Show without the involvement of Dave Anderson, Dave Richardson from the Non League Paper was the new co-host and what a difference he made, I wonder what the increase was in listening figures:

The Non League Football Show / 16th April 2021 - Pyramid Restructure & FA Vase with Anstey Nomads (audioboom.com)

Tim Fuell is joined by guest co-host David Richardson - Senior Writer of The Non League Paper on this week's show. Their guests this week, the leading voices of the Trident League, the Holy Trinity of Mark Harris - Chairman of the Northern Premier League, Nick Robinson - Chairman of the Isthmian League and Anthony Hughes - Vice-Chairman of the Southern League as they explain the reasoning, next steps and ramifications of the FA moving ahead with the restructuring of Steps 4-6 in the coming weeks. 
Plus as we reach the FA Vase Fourth Round, Director of Coaching at Anstey Nomads Conrad Logan explains why he is aiming to help the Step 5 club not only to taste Wembley Success like he did as a player but also success off the field as the club look to fulfil their Vision of the Future.

It is too early for Ollie Bayliss to divulge who and what will be featured on his BBC Three Counties Radio Non League Show at 2.00pm today however Joe Sweeney is likely to be on following Leighton Town's narrow 2-1 win over Walton & Hersham yesterday at Bell Close in the FA Vase Fourth Round. Flackwell Heath boss Marcus Richardson, who had a long professional career, should also be on the show following their nail biting win at Lancing yesterday on penalties following a 1-1 draw:

There's definitely a God isn't there, the other Non League Show is like a totally different show now without Dave Anderson and a good listen again, presenter Tim Fuell just lets guests say their piece without saying a word, a bit like Ollie Bayliss:

The Non League Football Show / 23rd April 2021 - Super League, FA Vase, West Auckland Town & United Services Portsmouth (audioboom.com)

Swampy returns as this week's co-host alongside Tim Fuell as they chat Super League fall-out and the FA Vase as we reach the Fifth Round. 
First guest Gary Forrest saw his team beaten 4-0 in the competition last week but an illegible player in the East Ferriby line-up sees his West Auckland reinstated ahead of this weekend's trip to Warrington Rylands. A competition with much history for the manager and Club, he hopes for a better performance from his team this weekend.
The only Step 6 Club remaining in the competition, United Services Portsmouth FC is led by manager Glenn Turnbull who is hoping he can get the best out of his team once again as they prepare to travel to Tavistock this weekend. Already committed to leaving at the end of the season to head up neighbours Moneyfields, could a Wembley final be the perfect way to bow out?
Rounding off the week's news and the show is David Richardson, Senior Writer at The Non League Paper.

Bulletin folks, Ollie Bayliss has just announced who and what will be featured on his BBC Three Counties Radio Non League Show at 2.00pm. Ollie will chat to well known and respected sports writer Michael Calvin about the current 'health' of Non League football and he will no doubt be publicising his new book (see below). Leighton Town and Flackwell Heath bosses Joe Sweeney and Marcus Richardson will be on again to talk about their away wins in the FA Vase Fifth Round yesterday and look forward to next Saturday's Quarter Final ties. There will also be a feature on the Pyramid restructuring now the blazers at the FA Council have given it the go ahead:

The first of a two part Non League Football Show today:

The Non League Football Show / 30th April 2021 - Part A - FA Trophy Final, Concord Rangers & Harrogate Town (audioboom.com)

Bank Holiday weekend and this week's show is a two-parter. Part A released here as usual, Part B released slightly later in the day on Friday.
First up in this episode Tim Fuell previews Bank Holiday Monday's Non League Finals Day 2020. Finally, the four teams involved get their day out at Wembley, although it will be without the fans of any of the Clubs and without the thousands of neutrals this big day normally brings together.
Antony Smith is a Chairman who wears his heart on his sleeve. He's helped steer Concord Rangers in their rise up the pyramid and in the football world's consciousness and admits there were times he feared they wouldn't get their day at Wembley. Now they have, it's been tough making the choices of who has earned the right to the limited tickets the club can grant to those who have helped the club get their day at the home of football.
Returning to the Non-league fold for the day is Football League Harrogate Town. Manager Simon Weaver spent many years as a player and manager in the Non-league game and has stayed faithful to many of those who took the club up via last year's play-offs. He explains why this second Wembley appearance is just as important to him, the players and all at the Club.
Rounding up the week's Non-league news is Editor at Large at the Non League Paper Matt Badcock, in a week that the National League got even tighter at the top and some Clubs at Step 5 declined 'elevation' to Step 4.
Part B of this week's show will be available via usual channels on Friday evening.

Part Two of yesterday's Non League Football Show:

The Non League Football Show / 30th April 2021 - Part B - FA Vase 2021 Quarter Finals, FA Vase 2020 Final, Consett Town & Hebburn Town (audioboom.com)

Part B of this week's show is an FA Vase special.
Phil Annets joins Tim Fuell as co-host. Known to listeners as @FACupFactfile, he returns this week with his @FAVaseFactfile hat on as he helps preview this weekend's Quarter Finals of the 2021 competition.
Also taking place this extended weekend however is the 2020 FA Vase Final. Two Northern League clubs will battle it out as Consett Town face Hebburn Town. In those line-ups twins will also face each other. Arjun Purewal is Captain and defender for Consett who will be hoping to get the better of twin Amar who is a striker for Hebburn. A first for the competition but these two are no stranger to records in FA competitions as we find out.
