Competition The Non League Football Thread ⚽

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Staying with family on the south coast this week and went to Worthing tonight, great game against Aveley although the ref was pretty bad

If you haven’t watched the Worthing documentary on tnt it’s well worth it, good local club owned by a very impressive man, think they’ll be a league club within 5 years
 
Former director at Weladstone and former Vice Chairman of Dagenham & Redbridge has bought a majority stake in Woking.

Woking were 'dead in the water' before agreeing sale​

The "sky is the limit" for Woking under the club's incoming new owners, says Drew Volpe after agreeing to sell the financially-stricken club.

Volpe said the club were "dead in the water" before US businessman Todd Johnson signed a purchase agreement to acquire a majority stake in the National League club.

Former Dagenham & Redbridge vice chairman Johnson leads the Cardinal Football Group, and is also a member of the ownership group at Minnesota United, who play in Major League Soccer.

"We needed help. This club was dead in the water financially," Volpe told BBC Radio Surrey.

"This happened in 2019 and again in the summer but Todd has come in and saved us."

Volpe revealed in a BBC interview in July that he had been within weeks of putting the club into administration, having invested more than £3m of personal capital into the Cards.

A £600,000 loan from his parents allowed them to begin the season, he had said.

Doesn't really fit here, but doesn't fit in anwhere I don't think, but my local club has upped sticks and is moving to Santa Barbara, CA.

There have been mounting signs it was coming since the stadium funding fell through and ownership sold Dag & Red, but it's sad.

The field was shit and the "supporters group" were a bunch of derivative tryhards with drums who could never realize they should have sung the chorus from "Can you hear the drums Fernando" for our Brazilian winger named Fernando (but had to do the stupid Iceland clap 4 times a match because they saw it in an insta post from the WC once).

But I'll miss them all the same.

They did create some cool logos which will lapse into the public domain at some point. And they delivered me to yet another frustrating never-going-to-get-there club which can compund my continual sports misery, Dag & Red. So there's that.
