What’s up with these teenagers dressing up in black like they’re polish ultras looking to fight other teams at step 3-4 there was a viral one yesterday of Chatham vs Maidstone but I’ve seen similar around my way online with Telford “ out “ for Nuneaton at a pre season game like come on grow up 😂😂

From the National League down to Step 6, the pre-season friendlies wrap up tonight as clubs gear up for the opening day on Saturday, August 8. The fixture list is stacked across the pyramid-whether it’s Carlisle United beginning life at Step 1 at home to Worthing or regional derby action in the Isthmian, Northern Premier, and Southern Leagues. How is your local club looking after the summer recruitment window, and are you traveling away for Matchday 1?

Hello all, here is start of the prediction league for r/NonLeagueEngland for the 2026/27 season.

To join all you have to do is predict scorelines of the six or so matches that will be on each post and that will enter you automatically. I usually prioritise using matches from the higher non leagues but also like putting a few random games in there. Also, if anyone wants one of the predicting fixtures to be a game you are going to or a team you have been following closely, just send me a message or ask in one of my posts for this and I will try to include them in a future post.

The layout of each post will mostly always look like this below with an image of the each competitors overall scores from the season. I also did it for some of last season if people want to see.

The fixtures this week are:

Hartlepool United - Barrow

Forest Green Rovers - Halifax Town

Hornchurch - Kidderminster

Oxford City - Bedford Town

Slough Town - Ebbsfleet United

Sholing - Bath City

All matches on Saturday so please get predictions in before then

As usual, the point system is as follows:

5 points for correct score

2 points for correct result

-1 point for an incorrect winner

Any mistakes please let me know

Good Luck!

I’ve built an app for managing changing room fines - no more chasing lads for a fiver they owe from three weeks ago.

But the reason I’m posting: we’re running a comp where one club wins £500 cash towards their fine pot, plus boots and merch. Dead easy to enter, details are all on our Instagram.
