Love the turnstile entrance

Tuesday 20 August 2013, Newmarket Town 4 Mildenhall Town 4, Thurlow Nunn, Eastern Counties League - Cricket Field Rd


Fourth game in four days and by far the best, not just because of 8 goals, but plenty of skill, end to end stuff, penalty and an equaliser with the last touch of the game.

Big crowd for a local derby, won £4 in the raffle and loved the turnstile/entrance.


Great metal initials above the old turnstile - was the stile recused from the racecourse?

Team from eBay?

Tuesday 13 August 2013, Mildenhall Town 1 Godmanchester Rovers 3, Thurlow Nunn Premier League, Recreation Way


Warm sunny evening and two teams playing attacking football and what a nicknane for the Godmanchester Number 9 - 'eBay' then again his real name is Mark Ebeyer!

Thank you twitter

Saturday 27 July 2013, Ely City 2 Saffron Walden Town 1, Pre-season friendly, Unwin Ground


Two senior Suffolk grounds to visit and today I thought I would tick one off and visit Mildenhall but lucky for me, I checked twitter just before I set off and found the opponents could not get a team and that match was called off late in the day.



Quick check of the web and found that just over the border in Cambridgeshire that Ely City were playing a home friendly. So I got a game in, a new ground and what a view- the Cathedral can been seen in the distance making it seem more like a setting for cricket, the weather also was more suited for cricket!
