Storm Katie 1 football 0

Easter Monday 28 March 2016, Debenham Leisure Centre 1 Woodbridge Town 1, Thurlow Nunn (Eastern Counties League) First Division, Friends (Maitlands) Meadow

With Storm Katie putting a halt to my plans to visit Hemel Hempstead and then a number of other back up games, I decided to stay closer to home and took the short trip North to Debenham, since my last visit a small stand had gone and entry was now through the Sports Centre bar.

Once out of the wind it was quite pleasant with the sun shining, a good flat pitch - and both teams attempting to play football - but that was  almost impossible thanks to last gusts of Storm Katie.

At half time, it seemed the one goal that Woodbridge scored with the wind on their backs would not be enough, but surprisingly Debenham never got to grips of playing with the wind on their side so in the end they only got back level with a Woodbridge own goal.

Thurlow Nunn complete and a great ground to finish with

Tuesday 22 September 2015, Kings Lynn Town 4 Histon 2 , Southern Premier Division - The Walks

Tuesday night in North Norfolk but an important visit for me as it completes the set of Thurlow Nunn Football grounds, yes I am a 'groundhopper' but not one who is tied down by rules, a friendly match can count, do not need to know the ref's wife's maiden name (if a man and not single!) and I do not have a little notebook to write down the teams, attendance and the kilowatt power of the floodlights.

I just want to see a game - so I decided that a Kings Lynn was my last Thurlow Nunn ground, thought it was better to try and get their first team playing in a Sothern League game and I was not disappointed, 6 goals and good football from both teams.

But the best bit was that the 'walks' was a fantastic ground, a traditional stand and would not take much if anything to move up at least two further divisions. Quite a large town and the club has had it's issues with the original club going bust but they seem to be on the 'up' again. One of the top 3 supported teams in the division and a good commercial offering at the ground but one issue they have is are they in the North or the South? They are one of the teams who the FA keeps moving between the two regional set ups- last year in the North and now in the South even if Lowestoft (further South and east) still remain in the Northern Division!

But the 'Walk's are well worth a visit- even if they play in yellow!
