Hmm, maybe a trip down Ironmould Lane this Saturday? Not having the best of seasons, but looking to turn Cribbs over.

I am working in Bournemouth and Poole this week so will be popping along to Poole Town v Hungerford in the National South. I was surprised to see how well both of these teams will doing, a home win will pretty much confirm Poole in the play offs and end Hungerfords hopes of them.

Poole get good crowds, awful ground though. Hungerford are just financially doped, utterly pointless club at that level.
I'm off to Berlin tomorrow, going to Union vs Aue on Wednesday night. That'll be four of my top ten to do done since November...
(for those interested it was Glentoran, Dortmund, Milan & Union).

I'm actually in Belfast in June for a long weekend with my wife. Stupidly, I didn't check the fixtures first. and the season is over then so no Glentoran trip for me. Dundalk are at home though, so it's either that or I will have to talk to her for the whole weekend.

Train from Belfast to Dundalk is pretty easy, I was lucky and get a lift from Skerries on the way down but the train back was fine.

Anyway another two 92 ticks this week with Palace and Gillingham. Four away trips in nine days, three new grounds.

I was considering ticking two off this weekend with Middlesbrough at home on the Saturday & Sunderland today. Ideally they both go down, we go up, Brighton blow promotion and we draw West Ham away in the cup and then I'm sorted

I'll guess at Valencia & Hertha Berlin. Well done . Not the most exotic on the list! I fancy a trip to Garw, though.

I'm working in the midlands tomorrow, so I will have a choice between Newcastle Town v Marine or Rushall Olympic v Lincoln United. I like the look of both grounds but Newcastle will probably edge it, very quirky with a velodrome around the pitch!

Big fan of Selhurst Park, an even bigger fan of Arsenal fans fighting with each other.

Yes, the Poole ground is in the grounds of a school! They've had to upgrade gradually over about 8 years. In the last week they just gained permission to stay in the Conference South having spent a good deal, to them, to pass ground regulations. So yes it's a poor ground, basically a school but from where they were 15 years ago, Hampshire League, they have done well. Whenever I think of what might have happened to Rovers I think we could be playing Poole Town on their ground, a very sobering thought!

Will they be allowed into the conference if they get through in the play offs?
