Last night was annual ex-players reunion which saw the return to Ipswich of Arnold Muhren and Frans Thijssen - not sure they would recognise the evts this afternoon as football!

Plenty to Crow about!
Saturday 12 March 2016, Royston Town 1 AFC Rushden & Diamonds - Southern League, Division One Central - Garden Walk Stadium
With both teams pushing for a play off place I expected a close game - and I got one, with Rushden the best supported team in the Division I expected a big crowd and I got one but what was not expected (but very welcome) was the almost Summer like conditions that added to the big ground made this a very enjoyable afternoon.
Rushden supporters seemed to outnumber the home fans but from the start it seemed that the Rushden fans were not expecting much a recent dip in form and a number of new arrivals meant many expected a hard game. they got that and Royston deserved their win with a far better work commitment and some excellent displays in what was great all round team performance.
After the game, Rushden fans gave the match officials some stick but you could tell that even the Rushden fans knew they were clutching at short straws as they had in fact been second best all over the park today.
Both clubs could end up facing each other again the play-offs but Rushden need to start winning again or they might not even make the play-offs.

Never a three goal defeat
Tuesday 8 March 2016, Barton Rovers 0 Aylesbury 3, Southern League, Division One Central - Sharpenhoe Rd
The home team were in this game from start to almost the finish and the three goal defeat disguises how close, this game was - not only competitive but good football played by both teams on a windy night and a pitch with a significant slope.
Not many here to watch the game in what is a nice neat ground, maybe built with money from previous FA Vase runs? Good seated stand plus some well built brick covered terraces on the other side.
Club house not bad but maybe more investment has gone into the VIP/Directors bar area at the rear of the main stand.
But mostly this was a cold windy night where the quality of the football helped warm the cockles!

Another golden night at the velodrome
Friday 4 March 2016, World Track Championships - Lea Valley Velodrome
Thought I was going too see Laura Trott win another Gold but this time it was only Bronze but no need to worry as GB found another Golden hero - Jon Dibben, what a win, what a race and what a night!
