The match at F.C. Cavaliers had not finished until 14.12, but I was still parked up at the ground in Bingham at 14.42. The match here was 4th versus 17th (second from bottom) in the league table, Bingham still having a chance of finishing second, behind champions Newark Flowserve, due to games in hand over the teams currently placed second and third.

Yet again, another awful game, with both teams being totally inept in front of goal. Just when it looked like finishing goalless, Bingham snatched it with a close range finish as the ninety minute mark was reached.

The early kick off here gave the opportunity for an extra match today and it also meant a special journey wouldn’t have to be made just to visit yet another 3G cage with limited spectator access. This was 2nd versus 13th in the league table, which suggested that the home team would be a decent side, but this wasn’t the case. A really poor match ensued and it was a bit of a surprise that there was actually a goal scored, as these two teams were dreadful.

The matchday programme here was also really poor and would not be worth bothering with if it wasn’t included in the admission price. It didn’t help that it was poorly printed, both in quality and presentation, with the even numbered pages being printed correctly, but all the odd ones were upside down !
