4 Torquay United 43 +24 80

Good Friday is huge.

Truro v Torquay and Eastbourne v Worthing.

I'll be at the Eastbourne game. Its a sellout with 3.5k expected attendance
 
Not sure if anyone here is from Bedford or has connections to either club here but I think this must be one of the biggest stories in non-league right now.


Both clubs top of their divisions at the moment with Real Bedford (a level lower) already promoted.

Bedford Town are the traditional non-league club, had their struggles over the many years to put it mildly and have never really been able to climb the pyramid. A sad danger that they will disappear if this crypto owner has his way. He purchased the minnows next to them (literally ground is metres away), renamed them instantly and is ploughing in plenty of crytpo cash by the sounds of it. Now wants to 'merge' (read takeover) even though his 'Real Bedford' are still in a division lower. Sounds like talks are advanced but I've no idea how it plays out, especially if Bedford Town get promoted this season - they will be in the Conference South.

Basically happened in Dorking. Historical club was written out of history. Must be other examples.
 
I can't tell if I'm ok with this or loathe this.

My knee-jerk reaction is to hate anyone with a YouTube channel.
Fun and games continue...

After three days, one of the two youtubers has been sacked. 😳

I don't believe the clubs are going to merge next season, they very well might in the near future Real Bedford FC <> Bedford Town Merger Update | Real Bedford FC | Running Bitcoin

That said, I don't see Bedford Town in the Conference South, highly likely they would be Conference North.

Next season's Conference North/South split is going to be very interesting, Chelmsford, Hemel, even Chesham are at risk of being moved North, especially with Ebbsfleet, Maidenhead and Dagenham coming down, all at risk of shifting the pack.

Yep, since I posted it talks broke down. Hopefully that's the end of it. Planning to watch them tomorrow, away at Hitchin, could get promoted if Kettering lose.

Interesting about the north/south split. Guess Bedford always going to be on the brink. Sounds mad with Bedford on the Thameslink line, but have to remember 'South' includes all that down to Cornwall etc
