Don’t miss the opportunity to see the Borough at ‘The Meadow’ for the visit to Chesham Utd this Saturday.

Enjoy the day – the owners of the club intend to leave their famous old ground, with all its 100+ years of history, in exchange for a new ground on the other side of town, well away from the station which at present is just a decent walk away. I suspect the majority of supporters would prefer to stay put at the Meadow but as far as I know they haven’t been asked, but then they only partially finance the club. It’s called progress.

I suggest you go early to find easy parking at the ground or nearby and to enjoy the excellent friendly social club if you fancy a drink before, during or after the game. Bill’s Burger Van in the ground serves the best burgers in the Southern League. The ground itself is a bit of a mess but it is a lovable mess, with excellent viewing positions from covered terracing and the main seated stand. The match programme is usually a good read. The playing surface is good so no excuses there.

The Borough probably won’t win this one, even if they do play better against good sides. I reckon Chesham should win by a couple of goals. Borough need the points more desperately than Chesham so, as a supporter of both clubs, I’m OK if I’m wrong.

There should be a decent crowd of around 350 – 400, which produces a good atmosphere.

I hope you feel welcome and enjoy the game which, after all, is what it’s supposed to be all about.
