First up - apologies.
Sorry this is up so late. Going into Sunday I thought things were going to plan but various family commitments and a trip to Actonians left me exhausted and ready for bed not long after 8pm.
To be fair, I had got home from work at well after 1am on Sunday morning so that played a big part in my fatigue too.
Monday was really busy as well and I just ran out of time.
At this point it's just match maps and no previews and it may remain that way as Non-League Day prep is building up really quickly with new partners still wanting to join the campaign at this relatively late stage.
Have a great week everyone and enjoy your football.
THE WEEK AHEAD
This week's highlights include games in the FA Cup, Premier League, EFL, National League, Women's FA Cup, Women's League Cup and lots of other games featuring our local non-league and women's clubs.
As always, please make sure you check with clubs before you travel just in case a game has been called off or the venue or kick-off time has changed - this is highly possible for some of the lower non-league clubs. Also, please let me know if anything is wrong or missing.
Details on all of this week's games can be found on the following match maps. If you've never used them before, please note that when there is more than one match at a specific ground you'll only be able to see individual match pins if you zoom right in. If you don't, the pins obscure each other and you might miss them. To avoid this, you can also scroll down the list of games on the drop down menu at the top of the map page to make sure you get all the information. Games are listed from top to bottom in date order so Monday's games (yellow pin) will appear first and Sunday's (orange pin) last. Games are also ranked in terms of status so the higher the division, the higher up the list they will appear on each day.
Also if you're unfamiliar with the English league structure I indicate the level at which an individual league sits in the national 'pyramid' with the Premier League at the top (Level 1) and various minor leagues at the bottom (Level 10). Typically a top level game will see crowds of anywhere between 20,000-60,000. These figures will gradually decline as you go down the leagues until you get to Levels 8-10 where attendances of 150 or less are most common.
It should also be noted that the top four levels are for fully professional teams. Level 5 has a mixture of professional and semi-professional teams, while Levels 6-10 will see most players paid but it will vary from no more than travel expenses at the bottom, right up to several hundred pounds a week at the top.
