Local(ish) games this Sat (Nov 16th)
With Wycombe playing at Tranmere on Sunday there’s a spare afternoon this coming Saturday. You could do some early Christmas shopping but if you want to save money I’d suggest taking in a local game. Here’s a selection:
HELLENIC LEAGUE PREMIER DIV:
Burnham v Lydney Town
Flackwell Heath v Shrivenham Town
Holmer Green v Tuffley Rovers
HELLENIC LEAGUE DIV 1 EAST:
Long Crendon v Milton United
Marlow United v Chalvey Sports
Risborough Rangers v Abingdon Town
NATIONAL LEAGUE NORTH:
Brackley Town v Darlington
NATIONAL LEAGUE SOUTH:
Hemel Hempstead Town v Weymouth
SOUTHERN LGE PREM DIV SOUTH:
Beaconsfield Town v Yate Town
SOUTHERN LGE DIV ONE CENTRAL:
Aylesbury United v Bedworth Town
(at Chesham United FC)
Berkhamsted v St Neots Town
With the weather being a bit dodgy at the moment it’s always worth checking social media or ringing the clubs concerned to check the game is going ahead.
Please post a short report if you’re going to a game. Some interesting local games and I’m sure these clubs would love to see you there.

I'll be in Liverpool if anyone's up for a pub crawl!
I believe Risborough Rangers v Abingdon Town is not now taking place on Saturday. RR will be at Penn & Tylers Green in the Berks & Bucks Trophy (KO 2pm). Also (and I am being serious here) Hemel Hempstead v Weymouth has been postponed - due to international call-ups.
@Buzz Thank you for your very helpful post! Hemel’s game at Chippenham the following Tuesday is also off. So scrub Hemel off the list & get to Risborough Rangers at 2pm if you fancy that!
Sorry, it’s Penn & T.G. v Risborough Rangers at Penn as you say.
Winslow Utd 2-1 London Tigers - Spartan South Midlands League Division 1
Winslow had won their last six league games, Southall based Tigers were unbeaten in their last five, which led to a rather unexciting goalless first half, ended by an amusing incident when a Winslow player taking a throw-in, threw it at the back of his teammate's head to get the return. Foul given, heated discussion between the two players, and the ref and lino. "It's not illegal, I saw it happen in the Premier League." Lino: "The best thing you can do is shut up."
The second half was much better, Winslow took the lead on 49 minutes (Woolley), bit of a scramble, but Tigers continually tested the home keeper, Mike Chalmers, who pulled off several great saves. He has only just joined them, a replacement for Luke Ashmead who is about to have knee surgery.
The Tigers got a deserved equaliser on 88 minutes but Winslow scored a 90+1 winner (King) , much to the delight of the crowd, 85 in number.
