DESBOROUGH TOWN FC - A BRIEF HISTORY


The club was formed in 1896 and joined the Northamptonshire League in their first season. This became the United Counties League in 1934 and Desborough Town have played here for their entire history, save for a break during the second world war. Incredibly, they have remained in the top tier of the league for the entirety of their stay, though they had seasons to forget in 1955 and 1956 as they gained just one league win in the latter season and finished bottom of the league for the only times in their history. They've been champions on nine occasions, though not since 1966 and runners-up on a further six occasions. Recent seasons have tended to produce bottom-half finishes, with last season's 4th place finish being their best since 2007/08. This season, they've done fairly well and sat in 10th prior to tonight's clash.

Desborough Town reached the 1st Round of the FA Cup for the first and only time in their history in 1926. They travelled to football league side Doncaster Rovers and were eight minutes away from gaining a home replay before the game was abandoned due to fog. They lost the rescheduled match 3-0 and in recent times their best effort has been the 2nd Qualifying Round, last reached in 1996 when they lost to Bilston Town with a replay. Desborough had a barren run in the FA Trophy in the 1970's, but have had a few good runs in the FA Vase. Their best progress came in 1980 when they defeated Newfoundpool WMC, Stapenhill, Ledbury Town, Rushden Town and Friar Lane Old Boys before a 5th Round defeat to eventual winners, Stamford. Local cup wins include the United Counties League Cup twice, the Northampton Senior Cup four times, the Northampton Junior Cup five times and the Maunsell Cup in 1924.



MY VISIT


I'd been wanting to visit Desborough Town for a while, but on the occasions that it did come up as an option, I'd avoided it due to the weather looking ropey and there being no backups nearby. This week, however, there were no such issues forecast and with it being the closest ground, that myself and fellow groundhopper Anwar had yet to visit, so we planned it in. The night before, I was in bed asleep by around 9.15, hoping to get a decent night's sleep in. I managed that, but still woke around 6 am which was annoying.  After watching TV in bed for a couple of hours, I woke up and had some eggy bread for breakfast. After a bath and getting dressed, I did my usual day off ritual of walking down town before getting a lift back with my Dad. After lunch, I spent the afternoon watching TV and updating my blog for tonight and other upcoming games. I needed to get some fuel for tonight's game, so I left home at 4.15. Annoyingly, my local station was closed, so I'd have to get some en route. Surprisingly, the usually overpriced 'Jet' station was the same price as Morrisons had been that morning, so I filled right up with diesel.



I met Anwar at 5 and we were soon on our way. There was the usual slow getting out of Aylesbury and then through the roundabout loving Milton Keynes. All the constant directions on the sat nav were annoying when I was trying to listen to the confession on Simon Mayo's Radio 2 show. We got to Desborough at 7 and went in search of food. With it being a very small town, there were not many choices for dinner that were immediately obvious. All too often, the lack of competition, the prices are expensive and portions small, but not in this case. We went to TA Brothers Fish Bar where I had spring roll and chips for £2.50. Everything was freshly cooked, portions were decent and it tasted nice, so a thumbs up from me. It was also nice to be able to eat our dinner in the warm shop, rather than outside, albeit standing up. We got to the ground at 7.30, paying a bargain £5 to get in, plus another £1 for a programme. After getting some pictures of the ground, we settled down along the side, near the halfway line and waited for the game to start. Desborough had triumphed 7-4 against Pinxton in the FA Vase at the weekend in a real goalfest, whilst Kirby Muxloe had won 5-2 at Sleaford in the league. I was, therefore, hoping for a few goals, but it turned out not to be the case.



Before the game, the referee James Wetherall called the two captains together, asking for their support. 'We're only human, we might make mistakes, but please respect us' were his words, which seemed fair enough. One of the Kirby Muxloe bench had a bit of a whinge at a few decisions, but there was no bad language, which was a nice change from other games at this level. The visitors would have been happy with their start, with them forcing a series of corners early on and restricting Desborough to very little play. One of the Kirby Muxloe forwards charged home keeper Chris Jones and though a free kick was rightly given, it didn't stop the custodian making a couple of great saves. It was still goalless at the break and although Desborough had a great chance at the start of the second half, it was Kirby Muxloe who took the lead five minutes into the second period. Home keeper Jones lost track of the ball and felled a Kirby Muxloe forward. A penalty was awarded and with a successful conversion, the visitors led 1-0.  Kirby Muxloe remained on top throughout and despite a late rally by Desborough, they hung on. There was a brief delay near the end, as the balls had run out, meaning that after sorting my stuff out, we didn't leave until 9.45. Listening to the football on the way home, with England having drawn 0-0 with Brazil and Ireland having crashed 5-1 at home to Denmark, I dopped Anwar off at 11.05. I got home myself at 11.30 and after staying up for around 25 minutes drifted off to sleep around midnight.



THE GROUND

The Waterworks Field is one of the better grounds at step 5 and has plenty of cover. The old stand has bench seating and a capacity of 250. There's further cover to the right-hand side and also behind the goal for a further 800 spectators (approx) With the rest of the ground being open, there's an overall capacity of around 2000. The town is close by and has a decent choice, whilst at the ground is a bar, although I didn't encounter the tea bar.

GORNAL ATHLETIC - A BRIEF HISTORY

The club was formed in 1945 and were known as Lower Gornal Athletic until a name change in 1972. They started out in the Worcestershire Combination, with finishes ranging three 5th places to a low of rock bottom in 1955. In 1963, they joined the West Midlands Regional League, finishing 4th two years later and staying in the Premier Division until relegation in 1980. A long spell in Division 1 followed, with Gornal Athletic remaining here until 1994 when they finished runners-up behind Stafford Town. A mixed spell followed and although the club would drop back down to the second tier for the 2003/04 season, they bounced straight back as champions. This sparked one of the most successful spells in the club's history with them finishing as runners-up to Tividale in 2011, before winning the WMRL Premier the following year. This earned Gornal Athletic promotion to the Midland Alliance and 2012/13 saw the best finish in the club's history with a 3rd place in what was then a step 5 league. Their joy was short-lived however and the club was relegated back to the West Midlands (Regional) League in 2014. Despite a brief recovery in the 2014/15 season, where Gornal finished 3rd in the WMRL Premier, the poor form continued, culminating in relegation to the WMRL Division 1 at the end of last season. This season has seen a slight improvement in results, with the club sitting in 7th place prior to today's game.

Gornal Athletic's best ever run in the FA Cup came during the 1975/76 season. Starting in the 1st Qualifying Round, they beat Highgate United and Belper Town before going out to Nuneaton Borough after a 3-0 Third Qualifying Round replay. Four seasons previously, they reached the same stage of the FA Trophy, but they have mainly come in the FA Vase. The best run came in 2012/13 as Gornal Athletic beat Atherstone Town, Nuneaton Griff,
 Lye Town, Coventry Sphinx, Boston Town, Wisbech Town & Bodmin Town before a 3-1 Quarter Final defeat to eventual winners Spennymoor Town. Local honours include the Birmingham Midweek Cup, won in 2012 with a 3-0 victory over Black Country Rangers. Gornal is made up of two parts - Lower Gornal and Upper Gornal and is a part of Dudley. The population of Gornal is 12,992 and famous residents have included the former BBC Newsreader Sue Lawley.



MY VISIT

Back in mid-October, I realised that I had a free weekend for two weeks in a row. As ever I was keen to cut down on driving and so I decided that a trip on the train was in order. The previous week, I had been to London and more specifically Croydon, and so wanted to go somewhere different. Thanks to booking a couple of weeks or so in advance, I was able to secure a return from High Wycombe to Birmingham, plus bus options at either end for a shade over £17. Initially, I'd been hoping to go to Wolverhampton Sporting Club v Rugby Town in what looked a very good FA Vase tie. However, my bus ticket didn't stretch that far and not wanting to waste it, I started looking closer to Birmingham. Bustleholme and Cadbury Athletic were the closest options, both under an hour away.  When I put some options out on Twitter to garner opinion, it was spotted by Gornal Athletic's physio Wayne Shakespeare who recommended going to their game. After looking online and seeing that their ground looked very good, I was sold and planned the game in, with it being an hour and ten minutes away on the bus. Gornal had been relegated from step 6 football at the end of last season but were still in a pretty strong league. Their game was against another club who had played at a higher level but had also fallen on hard times lately. Whilst Gornal were looking comfortable in 7th place, Willenhall were rock bottom, having played Southern League football as recently as ten years ago.





On Thursday night, I started doing my research for the game. There was an incredible array of pubs worth visiting - in Birmingham, in Dudley and even in the village of Lower Gornal itself. As a huge fan of trying new ciders, I'd be in my element, but I'd have to be careful as I have a penchant for falling asleep after a few drinks - which would prove disastrous if I missed the match or my train. I also looked further at Willenhall's decline, which was astonishing. They'd already lost 13-0, 11-0, 9-0, 9-2 and 7-1 prior to their latest 10-0 defeat to Wolverhampton Casuals on Tuesday. In fact, their only win of the season had come on the 14th October as they won 3-2 away to Telford Juniors. Gornal Athletic were fresh off of a 4-0 victory against Bromyard Town. I noticed that the league had already had three clubs resign so far this season, Barterstree, Penncroft and Shenstone Pathfinders had all opted not to continue at various points through the season - I don't think I've seen a league with so many flaky clubs. 



The night before, I watched the England v Germany game on TV. Usually, I’d be disappointed with a goalless draw, but on this occasion, a very inexperienced team did well, and it was nice to be positive about our national team for once. I had a few drinks with the game, more than intended, but still ended up going to bed around 11. On the day of the game, I woke around 6 am, usually, that would be annoying, but I’d set my alarm for 6.50 anyway. It was a pleasant autumnal morning, albeit a bit drizzly but after getting watching some YouTube videos, I got out of bed when my alarm sounded. I got dressed, had a cranberry juice and left home at 7.10. Ten minutes later, I was on the bus, thanks to a plus bus ticket that cost me 10p less than a single would have. I had an hour to kill before my train, so went in search of breakfast. Hardly anywhere was open, so I had to settle for a McDonalds Sausage and Egg Bagel. It was ok, but I’d have preferred a Subway. Poundland also didn’t open until 9 so I couldn’t get any drinks for my journey. I got to the train station at 8 and with half an hour until my train, I bought a Daily Star to read. I got the 8.36 train which arrived in Birmingham at 10.15 after a delay at Solihull due to a 'distressed passenger'.



First stop was Poundland for drinks and a USB cable to charge my phone as the one I'd bought with me wasn't working properly. With my phone battery down to 50%, it was a godsend. I had a quick look around some other shops before getting the 11.00 bus to Dudley. Usefully, it had a socket to charge my phone, so I didn't need to use my power bank. I got to Dudley at 11.50 and after a brief look around the shops, I headed for my first pub. The Court House was a cracking place with a good range of ale and cider. I opted for a Napton Red Devil, made in Southam which was excellent. The pub was also playing some good music, with no modern rubbish. My second stop was Fellows, owned by Holden's Brewery and doing their own cider called Marcher Lords. Another good musical selection was present, I was feeling a bit envious of people who had these pubs on their doorstep, rather than the limited selection in Wycombe. After that, I went to Pound Bakery, having a festive turkey slice where the filling was as hot as lava, meaning I burned my lip badly, but it was tasty all the same. I got a bus at 1.50, with the journey to Gornal taking around 25 minutes. By 2.15 I was in Gornal, stopping at a pub called The Old Bulls Head for a pint of Black Rat. It was one I've had before, but was very nice, Gornal seeming a big place for a village.


Gornal had a marvellous ground for the level. I paid £4 to get in, plus £1 for a programme and had a walk around the ground. There were huge amounts of terracing and plenty more of interest. Gornal started on the front foot and hit the bar in the opening minute and then again 8 minutes in as they looked for the win. Despite chances for both sides, it was goalless at the break. The second half saw the contest die down a bit, both sides had half chances to nick it. The hosts got a late winner, around five minutes from time, a scrappy effort which I caught on video. It was harsh on Willenhall, who had battled hard after a shaky start, but that's the way your luck goes when you are down the bottom. I walked back to the bus stop and was lucky enough to get there at the same time as the bus. I decided to go straight back to Birmingham, rather than stay in Dudley.


I got back to Brum about 6.25 and headed for the Post Office Vaults. Unusually, I found it easily and was glad when I found the usual 15 ciders on tap. First up was a Betws Cider, which was very tasty as all Welsh ones tend to be. The place was rammed and with no phone signal, I was grateful for their WiFi. Another half, of the Village Green dry was sampled before I was out of time. I walked to Moor Street, a more complicated operation than it should have been to get my train. I didn’t get to eat though, the risk of missing my train too great for a quick nip to a takeaway.  I arrived a few minutes before my train departed at 7.55 with me getting back to Wycombe at 9.30. I went to the Chinese in Wycombe, Peking House located right outside the station and offering spring rolls and salt and chilli chips for £4. Suitably fed, I walked to the bus station and caught the next bus to Hazlemere, a mile from home. I got through the door around 10.30, watching TV for 20 minutes before going to bed at 11.


THE GROUND

The GARDEN WALK STADIUM must be one of the biggest at their level, with a capacity of 3000. The bulk of this is on the side that you enter and is a huge bank of terracing with around a 2000 capacity. This also has a number of seats and a small area of cover. This is open, much like most of the ground, with the only cover being on the far side - a small stand containing around 50 seats and terracing for 150. There is a small bar and tea bar at the ground, although a surprisingly large choice of pubs and takeaways can be found in the nearby village.

CROYDON FC - A BRIEF HISTORY

The club was formed in 1953 and was originally known as Croydon Amateurs, changing to their current name in 1973. They started out in the Surrey Senior League, finishing as runners-up three times in ten seasons. After a single season in the Spartan League, where they won the title, they joined the Athenian League in 1964. After finishing as champions in 1966, plus a couple more runners-up spots, they joined the Isthmian League in 1974. Starting out in the second tier, they were runners-up behind Tilbury, earning promotion to what was soon to be called the Premier Division. Croydon would remain here until 1989, with a record finish of 4th in 1986. This was when the league sat at step 2 of the non-league pyramid and remains Croydon's record high finish.



Fortunes soon declined however and by 1989, they were relegated to Division 1. This was the start of a lean spell for the club and they suffered a further relegation in 1994. They recovered, winning promotion back up in 1996 as runners-up to Canvey Island. After finishing as champions at the turn of the century, Croydon would enjoy two final seasons in the Isthmian Premier before relegation followed in 2002. Again, it prompted a difficult spell and they were relegated again in 2005. This was a time of reorganisation of the pyramid and the club would have spells in the Combined Counties and Kent (later renamed Southern Counties East) leagues at step 5 of non-league football. Their best finish in recent times came in 2007 with a 3rd placed finish in the Kent League. Last season Croydon finished 11th in the Southern Counties Premier, their best finish since 2009. They are doing even better this season, sitting in 5th at the time of the game.



In the FA Cup, Croydon enjoyed their best run during the 1979/80 season. After beating Bexhill Town, Ashford Town, Bognor Regis Town and Leatherhead, they faced fellow Isthmian League side Wycombe Wanderers in the 1st Round. They comfortably won 3-0 and went on to play Millwall in the 2nd Round. Demand for tickets was so great that the game was switched to Crystal Palace and Croydon gained a heroic 1-1 draw in front of their record attendance of 9,809. They'd finally bow out in the replay, losing an exciting and narrow game 3-2. Other runs in the national cup competitions have seen them reach the FA Amateur Cup 3rd Round, the FA Trophy 2nd Round (three times) and the FA Vase 4th Round (three times). Local cup wins include the Isthmian Full Members Cup in 2000, the London Senior Cup in 2002, the Surrey Senior Cup in 1982, the Kent League Cup and Kent Challenge Shield in 2009 and three Surrey Senior League Cups.



Croydon are nicknamed  'The Trams' owing to the proximity of their ground to the local tram stop. Record attendance at the Arena is 1600, achieved for a 1954 Surrey League Cup Final game against Dorking. Their best ever win was 11-0 as they defeated Banstead Athletic in a Surrey Senior Cup game. The most notable player to play for Croydon was Peter Bonetti, the future England goalkeeper playing 5 games for the club as a youngster whilst on loan from Chelsea. Croydon had received modern press attention for being the centre for UK Visas and immigration, although it has had plenty of famous Brits born there. These include football manager Roy Hodgson, footballer Jason Puncheon and authors D.H Lawrence and Malcolm Muggeridge. Musically, Kirsty McColl, Katie Melua, Amy Winehouse, Captain Sensible and Stormsy also have connections with the town.



MY VISIT

As part of my attempt to cut down on driving, I was always going to be doing a game on the train on this Saturday. Originally, the choice was going to be Crockenhill, though the 2 PM kick off put me off as a day out in London was as much a part of the day as the football. With it being right on the outskirts of the travelcard zone, I decided to save it for another day, especially as fellow hopper Anwar was also going to Croydon. That particular ground had a few downsides, not least the running track around the pitch. It was also one of the pricier at step 5, costing £7 plus £2 for the programme, but with an excellent town centre nearby and me able to easily visit one of my favourite haunts in central London beforehand, I decided to go for it. Their Twitter was also very active compared to Crockenhill's, meaning that I'd be kept informed of any changes and things like team news and goalscorers.


On the Thursday night, I spent around three hours researching Croydon's history, although, with the whole internet and especially Wikipedia at your fingertips, it's so easy to get distracted and read plenty of random and unrelated stuff. I'd been considering going to a game on Friday night too, but with me having an expensive time recently, as well as FA Cup football on the TV, I decided against a trip to Oakwood near Crawley, that after Anwar had rejected the offer of Tuffley Rovers v Oxford City in the Hellenic Premier. In the end, Milton Keynes triumphed 4-0 against Hyde, much to the chagrin of football fans everywhere. I had a few drinks but didn't go mad and I was in bed by 10.30. As I result, I woke early at 6ish, but still had a good sleep. After catching up on my YouTube subs, I played Football Manager for the first time since July to pass some time. Typically, after being dry all week, while people were stuck in work, the poxy weather decided to rain, so I'd be needing my wet weather gear.



I'd decided to go from Chalfont rather than Amersham as it had a slightly better range of connections. I left at 9.40 and 20 minutes later was parked up in Chalfont. After getting a paper, I went to the station, waiting around 15 minutes for a train. After a change at Finchley Road, I got to Borough Market at 11.30. I'd come here to visit the New Forest cider stall, which was as superb as ever. I started off with a pint of Willie Gunn which was terrific for such a low percentage cider. Then it was a small bottle of Local Fox before I tried a pint of their own sweet cider to complete the set. It was 12.56 by the time I got the train to East Croydon, later than I’d hoped, but I was in good spirits. I got to Croydon around half an hour later and fairly peckish. McDonald's did the trick, a jerk chicken burger with fries for about £5.50. After a look round a couple of shops, I caught the tram to the ground, the journey giving me time to catch up with things online. I got to the ground at 2.30 and was pleased to get entry for £3.50 thanks to an offer for EFL Season ticket holders. I met Anwar in the stand and we had a good chat while we waited for kick off.



The view from the stand was not bad, with the elevation compensating for the distance from the pitch. Croydon started the strongest and took the lead after 20 minutes when a ball was played across the six-yard box and rifled into the roof of the net by Andy Mott. Up to this point, Hollands & Blair had offered little, but they equalised on 27 minutes when a ball was played across the box and a low shot was put away from 12 yards. At halftime I visited the club shop, it was a good on for hoppers and I bought a couple of Groundtastic back issues and a Croydon FC pen for £2 each. The hosts had had much the better of the first half and they took the lead a minute into the second period. It was a simple finish from inside the area that regained the lead and from there they never looked back. It was 3-1 on 55 minutes, this time Jamie McGeohegan hit a curling low free-kick into the bottom right-hand corner. A few minutes later, he repeated the trick to make the game safe at 4-1. Hollands & Blair staged a brief resurgence and scored the best goal of the afternoon on 70 minutes with a shot that flew in the top left-hand corner. The hosts restored their three-goal lead on 72 minutes, a shot hit the bar and a Croydon man followed up with a header from a few yards out. Hollands and Blair then had a header disallowed for offside before Croydon wrapped up the game, making it 6-2 a minute from time when Stefan Joseph headed in from a corner.




We got away in good time after the game, with a tram arriving within seconds of us reaching the platform. From East Croydon, we went to a very busy Victoria and after a couple of changes, we were at Marylebone, ready to get our train home. Again we had barely any wait, and happily, I was able to get the same train home as Anwar. He stayed on until Aylesbury, with me getting off at Chalfont and Latimer. I was back by 6.30, getting to my car 5 minutes later. I got back home at 7, typing my blog while I listened to the football phone-ins on Radio 5 and TalkSPORT. After that, I caught up with YouTube and chatted online until Match Of The Day came on.



THE GROUND


The Croydon Sports Arena is a ground that I visited before to take pictures, a lot of these come from my London football ground tour on Tuesday 23rd January 2006, prior to Wycombe's League Cup semi-final game at Chelsea. The most notable part is the running track, which spoils the view somewhat, but aside from that, it's a fairly decent stadium for athletics fans. There's a sizable main stand, 450 in capacity and this is elevated slightly to improve the view which is not helped by a large space and floodlight pylons in front of it. Over the other side is standing cover for around the same amount, whilst extensive terracing gives the ground a capacity of 8,000.

There's not much in the immediate vicinity of the ground, though the town centre is a short tram ride away. This has a number of takeaways in it, as well as three Wetherspoons, so you will never go thirsty or hungry. There are also a number of cheap 'Poundland style' shops and retro computer games shops, which suit me down to the ground. Back at the ground, there is a basic tea bar, as well as a cosy clubhouse although I didn't purchase anything from either. There's also a good club shop, a rarity at this level.
