THEY WILL BE DANCING IN THE HARDWICK TONIGHT

NEW SALAMIS 1 THE HARDWICK 2
FA SUNDAY CUP SEMI FINAL AT THE IMPACT ARENA ALFRETON
25 MARCH 2018 --- 2PM
ROBERTS MAKES IT 2-0 TO HARDWICK
What a weekend it had been for the footy teams of Stockton with Hardwick securing a tight victory over Salamis and Town of the Northern League reaching the FA Vase final just 24 hours earlier there would be some joy in the north east never mind a little of the liquid stuff flowing.
The impact arena was looking resplendent in a the spring sunshine with the overall corporate red just broken up with a collection of stadium wide blue seats.  Amazingly this game had segregation in place for a small crowd if around 75 but as ever the North Eastern contingent were in good voice and as per the non league level its always worth catching up with teams from this neck of the woods.
Salamis from London have a rich pedigree on the football scene and indeed have won this trophy a couple of years ago but lost out to Hardwick last year so we were in for a keen contest and so it turned out to be.  Stockton based Hardwick Social would field a few of the Stockton Town lads and the standard of play was of course far from Sunday football but more like a step 4 game.
THE HARDWICK FC
Credit was due to Alfreton's band of helpers who had opened both snack bars, programme shop and were operating the public address system with the ever informative Bill Draper in control, a Reds fan who shortly will approach is 2,000 Alfreton game without a break a remarkable achievement.
NEW SALAMIS FC
Referee today would be Derbyshire FA official James Oldham who would need all his guile to keep a firm control on proceedings something I'm pleased to say he did.  In fact earlier on in the season he was involved in the strangest sending off I've ever read about when in the Conference North game between Bradford Park Ave and Salford with 3 minutes to go the visiting keeper was dismissed for urinating at the side of the pitch.
REFEREE JAMES OLDHAM WITH HIS TEAM AND TODAYS CAPTAINS
A nice collection of local non league fans were present and it was good to spend some time with flagman Dave and Neil aka Bob L Hat from the Kirkby in Ashfield and Belper Parishes respectively.
With both teams lined up for a photo shoot it was noteworthy that the kits would provide an interesting back drop to the game with Hardwick looking good in green and the Salamis offering of red and white stripes equally impressive.
BOB L HAT AND FLAGMAN DAVE LOOKING GOOD
So to the game and Hardwick were out of the traps straight away kicking to the North St end and with Salamis struggling to put much together it was perhaps no surprise that the Stockton based team took the lead a dash of pace cutting off the left hand side of the box from the appropriately named Chris Stockton saw John Kyriacou clip his legs and referee Oldham had no doubt pointing straight to the spot.  James Ward lined up for the penalty and although Joe Wright in the Salamis goal got a hand to it there was too much power on it for him to be able to keep the ball out of the net.
STOCKTON [11] JUST ABOUT TO GO DOWN UNDER THE CHALLENGE
After the break Salamis came out battling hard to get back into the game but Hardwick were defending well and closing down the London based side all over the park making it a frustrating afternoon for them.  When the next goal did come it was to double the lead for Hardwick a superb header from Stephen Roberts who rose to power home into the Salamis goal after 77 minutes.
ROBERTS HEADER MAKES IT 2-0 TO HARDWICK
As so often happens Salamis came back within four minutes with a goal they would have been grateful for a little early a lovely semi overhead kick from Richard Georgiou to give his team hope.  Amazingly he very nearly scored a similar goal in the closing stages something which would have pushed the tie into extra time but it wasn't to be and Hardwick confidently saw time out to book a final appearance against Gym FC who were victorious in the other semi-final.
JOE WRIGHT IN THE SALAMIS GOAL CLAIMS THE BALL
A superb little game up to a very good standard that in the end saw the right result with Hardwick having another trip out towards the end of the season as they look to retain their FA Sunday Cup.

BARRY TOWN UNITED MAKE IT FIVE WINS SINCE THE SPLIT

ABERYSTYWTH TOWN 0 BARRY TOWN UNITED 2
WELSH PREMIER LEAGUE @ PARK AVENUE
24 MARCH 2018 --- 2.30PM
ABERYSTWYTH V BARRY AT PARK AVE
Five straight wins since the league split have made Barry serious contenders should they make the end of season play-offs and who is going to stop them?  A first half Jordan Cotterill goal was added to by Louis Gerrard on the stroke of full time to collect all three points at Park Hall in what had been a tough and highly entertaining affair and had Aberystwyth found their finishing touch could have so easily seen a different outcome.
A FAMILIAR VIEW OF THE GROUND
Back to Wales then and a trip that had so often come onto the radar but never quite been completed except in my head, it being a long journey and often an overcrowded train from past experiences of the mid Wales line.  Departure was just after 9am from base and with a change at Birmingham the twenty minute connection for the following 3 hour journey to Aber was made and thankfully today both trains saw the blog gaining a seat, a small miracle in itself on Cross Country and Arriva.
NATIONAL LIBRARY AND THE VALE OF RHEIDOL RAILWAY
It was all fairly comfortable stuff and when we departed Caersws it was all new territory including a brief view of the streets of Machynlleth while the back two carriage departed for their costal journey to Phwelli.  In the meantime we were soon off to stop next at Dovey Bridge the junction for the line to pop along the Cambrian Coast and onwards for us to Borth and Aber.
PARK AVENUE SIDE
The station itself is in the middle of a marshy nature reserve with what looks like no access and I guess nobody gets off apart from a train change.
GAVIN CHESTERFIELD MARSHALLING THE PLAYERS
Aber was arrived at on time at 1.20pm with just over an hour to kick off and an hour spare at the end for a whistle stop tour of the town this would be a brief stay.  Cutting through the adjacent retail park I somehow missed Park Ave it really is that close to the station.
THE FAMOUS TREFECHAN BRIDGE
Having crossed the modern suspension bridge that crosses the river Rheidol it was on for a picture of Trefechan Bridge the site of a protest in 1963 to gain recognition for the Welsh language with enough time to complete the circuit back down the other side of the river it was time to enter the ground.
WHAT A STAND THAT WOULD HAVE MADE BUT ITS FLATS
Having seen the ground on Sgorio many times the biggest surprise was the massive steel structure rising by the main stand and my initial thoughts were wow superb new stand for Aber of course its a very tightly situated apartment/flat that are being built I believe all part of the deal that allowed the club to go 4g in pitch terms from the start of this season.
EXCELLENT PROGRAMME BEING SNAPPED UP
It was all a warm welcome on the gate, programme of which this is an excellent example and golden goal areas before a circuit of the ground was not completed due to barriers behind the far goal I.ve never quite worked this out because its all hard standing and of course no segregation was in place.
REFEREE KRIS HAMES LEADS THE TEAMS OUT
Straight on and on the right hand side is the business end with club shop to the right and onwards we have the offices, snack bar, bar which is quite smart with lots of history attached to its walls and then the highly perched small capacity main stand with below tunnel and changing rooms.
MATCH PICTURE APPEARING EARLY HERE IS ABERS CRAIG HOBSON
It would appear the stand now has a block closed for safety reasons and the roof appear to be concrete a very interesting construction.  Onwards to the far end and a superb view is offered from a raised terrace and then behind the divided goal terrace flat hard standing.  From this side an excellent view of the Rheidol Railway sheds are offered plus the National Library of Wales standing on the hill side.
HERE HE IS AGAIN THIS TIME BARRY KEEPER LEWIS WINS THE DAY
Turning left from our entrance and the Dias Stand which was opened by John Charles in 2000 has a few seats removed alongside a few with no bottom halves too but it offers a good 'close to the action view'.  Over onto the far side what was temporary staged seating remains from I believe Aber's European jaunts, this side is completed by the again massive TV gantry and hospitality build and in the far corner a hospitality area that offers fine views of the pitch from probably the biggest window I've seen in a building of its size.
ABER RACE DOWN ON GOAL WITH HOBSON AGAIN
With about ten minutes to kick off there was time to take in the surroundings of what is a superb club in the Welsh Premier and which has a real community feel about it.  Barry fans were emerging from the bar and it has to be said their numbers were good and they offered excellent support for their team something which it was good to see did not go un recognised by Gavin Chesterfield and his players at the end of play today.
BARRY KEEPER LEWIS DEALS WITH THIS CROSS
There will be a catalogue of memories from today that could have been mentioned and probably wont be in a superb day its always what to put in and what to leave out including the pictures but hopefully a true reflection is gained of an enjoyable day and game.
INTO THE SECOND HALF AND BARRY IN POSSESSION
The first half was a high tempo encounter with both Mike Lewis and Chris Mullock in the Barry and Aber goals respectively being in fine form to deny some good efforts on goal however the break through did come on 41 minutes when Jordan Cotterill fired home from 20 yards into the bottom right hand corner.
CAREFUL
The first half had also seen the blog get into an interesting conversation with Aldwyn, hope that's spelt right, from The Cambrian Press who was photographing proceedings thanks for your welcome.
Aber started on the front foot and had an excellent chance on 55 minutes when agonisingly Joe Phillips fires over from 2 yards out with an open goal begging following a Craig Hobson cross.  As the home side looked for a way back into the game Ryan Wollacott saw his effort cleared off the line by the Barry defence, but the visitors defence was holding strong.
MULTI TASKING RECEIVING TREATMENT AND DRINKING WATER
In the closing stages at the other end Mullock was still in fine form denying Johnathan Hood and then from the corner Curtis saw his header also saved the Aber number 1.  His opposite number Lewis was on hand to deny James Saddler at the other end before the game was wrapped up on 90 minutes.
FINE SAVE FROM ABERS MULLOCK
Barry sub Louis Gerrard powered his way into the box and fired home past Mullock to make it two nil and three points were on their way back to South Wales with referee Kris Hames calling time shortly after.
LOUIS GERRARD GETS THE SECOND AND IS THEN MOBBED BY HIS TEAMATES
This had probably been one of the most entertaining Welsh Premier games I had seen with both sides playing some lovely football and having a real go at securing the win for Aber it was a case of missed chances while for Barry they took a firm grip on securing a play off position and if they keep this high intensity going who would back against them?
A TEAM TOGETHER CELEBRATE THE SECOND GOAL
It was time to depart Park Ave sadly a very short period had been spent in its company after a long journey but it was time to take a brief look at the town. 
Emerging into the south bay and around the mini headland with its towering war memorial and to the rear its castle ruins we soon arrived in the north bay with its mini Llandudno style promenade, truncated Royal Pier and Old College.  In the distance is The Cliff Railway very similar, but over a steeper climb, to the Scarborough examples.  Cutting back through the town via Terrace Road the station was soon viewed now taken over by a Wetherspoons, sadly no time today.  Off to the new build M and S for hoppers provisions for the journey back there was just time to greet the 5.15 return on the Rheidol railway which runs into side platform.
THE PROMENADE AT ABERYSTWYTH
The main station is sadly now just one platform and it was already looking like the 5.30 would be busy and so it turned out to be the opposite of the journey in but with seat gained the three hour journey back to Birmingham didn't seem to long, honest!  A late running connection from Birmingham departed at around 9.15 and base station just over an hour later. 
A superb journey which would always be helped by more seats on some of the trains and there are already some visits to clubs on the line past Caersws being thought about.

SOFA SO GOOD WHEN HARRY MET RALPH

BIG 50 SOFA CHALLENGE SPORTS RELIEF 2018 BBC LOOK NORTH
DAY 7 CHESTERFIELD AND N.E. DERBYSHIRE
21 MARCH 9AM PUSH OFF
CROW LANE INCLINE FOR A GENTLE START TO DAY 7 IN CHESTERFIELD
BBC Look North presenters Harry Gration and Amy Garcia alongside weatherman Paul Hudson undertook the challenge of 50 locations over 100 miles and today they found themselves in Chesterfield and how the welcoming crowds enjoyed the big push off.
In aid of Sports Relief 2018 and that's just about how it made it onto the blog with the mention of 'sport' in its title the crowds were building up half an hour before the start and first to arrive were weather lead Hudson and we were to have an additional guest in weather presenter and now news presenter Keeley Donovan, before shortly afterwards the arrival of the news anchors Harry Gration and Amy Garcia.
THE FAMOUS CROOKED SPIRE OVERSEES PROCEEDINGS
Following on from the historical or should that be hysterical Tony Hawks Fridge around Ireland we now have a sofa around Yorkshire and Derbyshire, to add to the collection of quirkiness that so often goes with this country.
LEAVING THE MARKET HALL IN CHESTERFIELD
With warm Chesterfield greetings received by the team Amy made a short thank you speech to the massed crowd before the off, fashionably a few minutes late, around the Market Sq and towards the towns famous Crooked Spire Church.  Leaving the town via the rail station with all thoughts of humping the sofa onto the next train to Leeds and giving up the first challenge of the day the elbow, it was to be the rise up the steep climb of Crow Lane and after a brief respite halfway along the route there was time for Hudson to comment that 'it was harder that yesterdays climb' to Stanage Edge near Hathersage.  Along the country lane weatherman Paul was again receiving the attention of the ladies, of a certain age, this time from somebody who had sent him a baseball cap over 20 years ago and she showed him the letter he had sent her to thank him which she had kept for this of course she received a warm hug from the cheeky chap.
THE CHEEKY CHAPPY PUTTING HIS BACK INTO CROW LANE
The climb had been mastered and Brimington Common was ahead and the crowds were out to donate and greet again with Amy struggling with a cold it was amazing how many people gave her bags of lozenges to help her along the way but as ever a warm smile was offered as a short break was taken on the approach to Manor Rd.
WARM WELCOME IN BRIMINGTON COMMON
Moving along this busy road there was time for Harry to meet Ralph Morton a former Leeds citizen and at 76 years young still refereeing in the Chesterfield and District Sunday League and once again it has to be said that Mr Gration was more than obliging and pleasant when I guess there was an awful lot of body aching going on!
WHEN HARRY [AND AMY] MET RALPH
Following a stop at the local educational establishment the sofa was ambushed by an Ostrich which of course had been mounted by local comedian and Radio Sheffield presenter Bernie Clifton who had earlier quipped he was going to jump out on them 'to raise their pulses a bit' and that he couldn't stop long because he was on the menu at the local Miners Arms.
LOOK WHO IS HERE ITS BERNIE CLIFTON AND OSTRICH AMBUSHING THE SOFA
A further short amble along the raid was the said public house whose landlord had set out a sofa attired with red blanket for a welcome break and photo op Harry and Amy sat gentleman and lady like on the two seater but needless to say Paul threw himself on it in full length in relaxed pose.  BBC Sport is accustomed to having Harry on its team and Brimington had a famous son who now has a plaque on the wall of the 'Miners' Joe Payne who scored a remarkable ten goals for Luton Town against Bristol Rovers in the id 1930's a record that still stands today.
HARRY WITH THE JOE PAYNE PLAQUE
Towards Brimington the crowds remained and one thing that stood out was the warm welcome and the high regard the presenters of Look North are held I guess they are like family invited into your home every day, I'm sure they are aware of this but it was quite amazing to see.
COMFY SOFA FOR HUDSON WITH THE MINERS LANDLORD
By the time I left proceedings at the village there was just another nine hours to go to complete day seven!
KEELEY DONOVAN CONDUCTS AN INTERVIEW IN BRIMINGTON COMMON
A great achievement and no mean feat warmed and encouraged on today by the people of North East Derbyshire all the time raising money for Sport Relief 2018, well done to all including the support team around the presenters.

FARCICAL CALL OFF ENDS RADFORD V PRIMS MATCH

RADFORD 1 GRAHAM ST PRIMS 1 [ABANDONED 40 MINUTES]
EMCL @ ON CALL ARENA
17 MARCH 2018 --- 3PM
NICE DAY FOR A GAME OF FOOTY
A frustrating afternoon for players, club officials and of course last of all the fans saw this game called off by the referee with bright sunshine and blue sky dominating a pitch that had all its lines cleared following a four minute heavy snow shower.
Managers of all sports teams often hate the requirement of doing interviews or giving the thoughts immediately after a game because they may say to much in the 'heat of the moment'.  Thankfully the blog is not on the same level but has deliberately taken 24 hours to hopefully tone down the rant about todays proceedings.
A CALMING VIEW OF SHIPSTONE BREWERY AS THE RANT TAKES PLACE
Firstly let me qualify any comments by saying I'm the first to see the difficulty referees have hassle from all sides and they can never suit all etc, etc, blah, blah, blah.  However seriously some areas of the game need a strong look at them with a fine tooth comb supporters are increasingly disappearing not just to the bottom of the pile but beyond those depths.  Todays forecast had given us heavy snow showers for short periods followed by bright sunshine and blue sky, indeed walking to the ground from Bobbers Mill at 1.15pm we experienced one of these but by the time we called in at the club house the small amount of snow that had settled had all but vanished.
The encounter kicked off in a snow flurry which proceeded to abate and then on forty minutes with the scores at 1-1 referee Mallows called for a yellow ball something that sadly Radford did not have to immediate hand.  At this stage probably correctly as you will see from the picture the players were brought off the pitch and it appeared an agreement was taken to play 40 minutes each way, a game of two equal halves, with a half time break underway straight away.
THE CULPRIT
More or less as soon as the players were shut away in their changing rooms the weather changed and a small band of officials and spectators set about clearing the lines while Radford readied the yellow ball.  You will see from the main picture that the weather had returned to 'norm' and with the blue sky and sunshine in the ascendancy we hoped for a prompt re-start.
Sadly referee Mallows had other ideas and unbelievably he came as far as the end of the tunnel not even crossing onto the pitch and declared he 'was not happy with it'.  I guess as ever the attendance of an assessor was having a big influence on any decisions the referee made.  A group of players from both sides pleaded with him to come out and take a look at the directional area of the weather and that they were happy to try to get this game completed, but of course to no avail.  The even more galling fact was that all the non league games in the Nottingham area that started finished in what looked like the same conditions at Basford, Dunkirk, Attenborough, Calverton and Kimberly.  Indeed games at Matlock and Glossop in the Peak District had delays to clear their lines in what looked like far worse conditions and saw the games through.  The frustration here can be added to by taking a look at Atherstone's twitter feed for their game versus Heath Hayes which left supporters and officials in the same bewildered state and the video of the abandonment.  
In the opinion of the referee of course is the edict but sometimes I'm not sure whether these guys are fans of the game or realise the work and expense that the clubs go through but of course that really doesn't affect most of them because they'll be back for the next one in mid may when nobody else turns up but a bit more expense will drain out of a clubs account.
OH YES THE MATCH
In fairness to Mr Mallows this was the first time I had witnessed a game abandoned in 40 years of watching the 'beautiful game' so I suppose I should be grateful, but I wasn't.
For the record it was 1-1 at 40 minutes with Radford taking the lead on 13 minutes through Ravarne Jackson before nine minutes later Josh Wright Levelled when he turned in a corner off the right hand side.
Pre match had gone well with ample servings at the quality Bobbers Mill Macs with all journeys being successfully completed the only thing we missed was a full game of football.
Older players and fans are laughing at the game today as fixtures pile up we are calling off some and I have to make that clear, some, games far too easily when in the past these matches would have been played.  Todays pitch was perfectly playable and to add insult to injury no more snow arrived until around 4.40 just enough time for us to have completed the second half, anyone for a bit of rugby league?

BOYNTON SPORTS PROMOTION PUSH CONTINUES

BOYNTON SPORTS 4 CARIBBEAN SPORTS RES 1
SHEFFIELD COUNTY SENIOR LEAGUE DIVISION 2 @ CONCORD SPORTS
10 MARCH 2018 --- 3PM
BOYNTON SPORTS V CARIBBEAN SPORTS
The promotion ambitions of Boynton Sports continued in this entertaining and keenly contested encounter in the north east of Sheffield.  With a narrow 2-1 lead at half time it was only a fourth goal five minutes from time that sealed victory against a determined Caribbean Sports.
Following on from the habits of this season a large proportion of local non league fixtures had been wiped out by the, once again, wet weather is there any end to this seasons mad planning it will be a luxury to finally attend a game not thinking about rain and waterlogging.  So that's were Boynton Sports comes in playing on 3g at Concord Sports Centre in Firth Park Sheffield and having been on the cards a few weeks previous today a prompt text reply from the club sealed the fixture.
TODAYS EATERY AND A RETURN TO THE GOOD OLD FISH AND CHIPS
Todays travel plans were sorted out and then amended when great news came through that Barry Dyke would be joining Mick and myself with the added bonus of a lift to and from todays encounter, thanks Barry a pleasure as always.  So arrival in Firth Park saw us circle around the busy shopping area a few times before we found a car parking spot for a meander around, far from being aimless of course because an eating establishment had been previously researched.  The bustling shopping area has a wide selection of independent shops and centres around a traffic roundabout that has a superb touch in a gated area in the centre of it with former tram lines still embedded in the road structure.  There is a break to buildings on one part of the roundabout and the excellent Firth Park recreational area wins the day.  Time could be wasted no more it was off to The Codfather another in the great names of chippy's for a sample of Yorkshire fish and chips and they were certainly bubbling under in the top echelons of the chippy table.  It was rather like a scene from Last of the Summer Wine as three sprightly young gentleman sat outside the shop on the wooden benches surrounded by a selection of ever hungry pigeons and discussed the game ahead.
THE BUSY CENTRE OF FIRTH PARK WITH ITS TRAM LINES STILL IN PLACE
Back up t'ill to the sports centre and around to the back is the slightly worn 3g pitch which has clearly had a lot of local use its as ever caged in but with a walk way down one side and with a small grass bank on the far side so its far from a hemmed in feel.  The floodlights look impressive with three poles adorned by 8 lights on each, somewhat of a small scale eastern European football ground look about it, skywards anyway.  Having made contact with referee Carl Wallace about the team sheets and then to be greeted pitch side by John Gough from Boynton it was a warm welcome to start the afternoon off.
THE FLOODLIGHTS AT CONCORD PARK
In an afternoon of 'John's' the club chairman John Heritage caught up with us in the second half and we talked all things Boynton Sports with a clear enthusiasm for advancing the club it will be good to watch their developments as next season with hopefully a promotion in their grasp they will move to the south east and take up residence at Westfield's a St Georges Park corporate facility to play on one of the new grass pitches.  The club historically were founded in 1952 and they are rightly proud of John Hogg who spent most of his life with the club joining as a 15 year old and then going on to be a proud stalwart off the pitch in latter years.  Sadly join passed away two years ago but everybody you talk to mentions him, now there's a great touch for a man who clearly continues to mean so much.  This is Boynton's first season in the County Senior after a short break they reformed as a Sunday side in The Blades Superdraw League a position they still hold but with the addition now of Saturday football.  The chairman tells me of the proud history of players taking up higher position in the football structure and non more so this season than Kurtis Turner and Callum Littlejohn, son of former Sheffield United Adrian, who are now plying their trade at Stocksbridge Park Steels and Retford United respectively. The name Boynton Sports was the other question to be asked and this came from the name of the road by the Devonshire Arms were the club was based around in the nearby Shirecliffe district of the city.
DIRECTION FROM THE CARIBBEAN SPORTS MANAGER
So to the game and with a threatening murky cloud todays pictures are not up to much so apologies but hopefully the words give a feel to the friendly welcome of the two clubs.  Sitting at the side of one another in third and fourth position we hoped for a good game and so it turned out as early as the first minute when John Mellor latched on to a defensive error only to put his shot just wide of the post and following this he was denied on two further occasions by visiting keeper James Bailey.
BOYNTON DEFEND IN NUMBERS WITH NIMMO [8] IN ON THE TASK
Amid the collection of early chances though Boynton took after just two minutes when Chris Nimmo made space for himself to fire home from 20 yards for a quality finish.  Caribbean Sports had been more than a threat in the game and after a degree of possession they got a deserved equaliser when former Boynton player Matt Betts pounced on an un-cleared corner to loop the ball back into the home net, 25 minutes.  Both sides were now in 'going for it' mode and it was to be Boynton who went into the break ahead Danny Marcus beat the offside trap from just over the half way line to chase down a lose ball on the right as the Caribbean keeper Bailey came out onto the wing to challenge him the Boynton frontman skipped the ball past him and converted from a tight angle.
MORE BOYNTON SPORTS ACTION WITH THAT MAN NIMMO AGAIN
After a good old pitch half time break non of this wandering off to the changing rooms it was the home side who started the second half in the ascendancy with their third just one minute into proceedings when Mellor got the goal his efforts deserved cutting in off the left and firing past the out coming Bailey.  The chances continued to fall to the home side but make no doubt about it the visitors were more than in this game and should be credited with the entertaining encounter we were witnessing.  Those chances though fell to Dominic Dallas who struck the post before Daniel Parker placed his effort wide and then Marcus saw a lovely effort superbly saved by Bailey.  But not to be denied the game was finally settled with five minutes remaining with an acrobatic overhead kick from Parker nestled itself in the back of the visitors goal to make it 4-1.
REFEREE WALLACE IS ASKED THE WAY TO THE CHANGING ROOMS
Time to bid farewell to Boynton Sports and no complicated public transport routes just the chance to jump into a nice comfortable warm car for the journey back down the M1 and arrival at base around 5.30pm.
