    Bit more fun going there than Oakwell at the moment - for anyone interested final score was Farnham Town 6 Rayners Lane 0. That victory clinched the Isthmian League South Central title as they are now 21 points clear with 6 games left and only 2 defeats all season.
    Planning to add a new 700 person terrace on the bank I am standing on this summer

    Wasn't that part of the Hound for a Pound initiative? Another revenue stream that could have brought in tens of pounds a year but that the owners have failed to capitalise on. Boooo!

    Please no, we don't need another space lost to entitled dog owners.

    Yes but it would be far better to fill all those empty seats at Oakwell with furry friends.

    That was in the league below though to be runaway leaders first season in this league is quite impressive. Next year may be more of a challenge assuming they are allowed to go up - not quite sure what the ground requirements are but suspect the reason for the new terrace may be to meet them

    I'm just scared that during the on field parade my dog Loki will get picked for the team. She loves fetching balls and being chased, just need to train her to run into the opposition net.

    they might end up in the southern league next year

    there’s 3 to 1 split of relegation from national league south and some clubs will get shifted between isthmian and southern

    Based on who is there now I’d doubt it
