    Great 3-0 away win at Evesham Utd for Sholing in the Southern League Div 1 opening fixture.
    I fancy them for promotion this year as they finished last season like a train before lockdown.

    Sholing up for the cup tonight away somewhere in Gloucestershire, was hoping the Beeb would show it after last night's match!

    Leyton Orient chairman has said that if Spuds are awarded the tie then it is an 'incentive not no to test'.

    Be interesting to see how this progresses.

    Spurs have been given a bye in the cup after Leyton Orient couldn't play because of positive Covid tests. Tough on Orient, but understandable....the season has to be moved on.

    From fixture perspective yes but from a testing point of view, no. If it had been a big club I wonder if things would have been different.

    Well their chairman was saying in a similar situation he wouldn't test again so think this could go on and on.

    Harsh imo.

    Strike partner Diego Costa, added: "He is very good, one of us can do the fighting and the other can do the biting."

    Interesting trivia fact:
    Plymouth is the largest city in Europe never to have had a top flight football team.

    Exciting game at the Mackoy Stadium last night by the looks of it with an injury time winner for The Boatmen against Highworth Town from Wiltshire...



    A trip to Cornwall next up with an FA Cup Second Qualifying Round tie at Saltash on Saturday.
