Thame are in the Southern League South East Division, whilst Brackley Town Saints are in the Hellenic League Premier Division. There are many people who won’t watch pre season friendlies, saying they are nothing more than glorified training sessions. Watching this, it would hard to make a case otherwise. Unbelievably, it was played as a 3 x 35 minute match, apparently at the request of the coaches, according to the Referee.

These two are both in the Spartan South Midlands League, Raiders in Division 2 and Tring in the Premier Division. It was a reasonable game, but both sets of forwards need to improve on their shooting.
