Just over the border

Saturday 11 August 2018, Harleston Town 5 Downham Town 1 - Eastern Counties League, Division One (North), Recreation Ground

Not far to go today, just over the border to Norfolk to re-complete the division. Might have been Norfolk but the locals were friendly and I liked the ground, open on two sides but plenty of potential.

On the pitch, Harleston look like they will have a good season, work hard, good team spirit and some class players with the front 3 likely to score plenty of goals.

Tuesday 10 May 2016, Mulbarton Wanderers 0 Harleston Town 3 - Anglian Combination, Premier Division - Mulberry Park

My first visit to the Anglian Combination and I chose a good ground to start with, a club that has the potential to improve its ground further - it has the lights, the space and even a tea bar!

The game itself did not go their way and the game was ruined by a far too lenient ref. Harleston deserved the win, and managed to score a penalty plus two superb individual goals. i am sure this will be the first of many Anglian Combination grounds.
