As we say goodbye to Conference North, it's no great loss to the BSFC. Obviously it's utterly shit that our 150th season has been little short of a disaster. We've never found out why we're in the north considering Braintree is further north (but would do more miles) and Hemel is further south (but would do less miles), and I guess we never will. We're been utterly shafted by the FA, and it's resulted in a bottom place finish.
For all of that, we haven't embarrassed ourselves. There was no getting rid of all of the senior players and sticking youth or (genuine) pub league players on the bus. Players have got on the bus to go to crap northern shanty towns on a Tuesday night knowing they'll only be a sub. But we have turned up with a proper squad every week. It just hasn't been a very good squad.
Where we end up next is anyone's guess. The Southern Central shouldn't be the end of the world, but there seems to be a lot of London-based step 3 players who just won't consider life outside the Isthmian.
I probably do a poll as to whether I depart this board. If do feel it lacks threads about poo. Speaking of which, I passed an absolute stonker earlier today.
