    That looks like a cracking little ground 👍👍
    I noticed the club shop & it made me wonder do you ever buy anything from your ground hop to remind you of your visit....apart from a coke & a Mars 😆😆
    I always buy a matchday programme if possible 👍👍

    Complaint quite rightly dismissed! Nothing wrong with your face and the whole point of the channel is to get a flavour of the grounds AND football at that level. Keep it up Matt it’s what I watch them for and why I subscribe!

    Good video, Matt. I enjoy watching your ground adventures. I'm a Reading FC season ticket holder, and when I'm not watching the Royals, I love taking in new grounds. I'm on 74 in the football league, but this season and last, I've got the bug for ticking off non league grounds.

    Great video again Matt. As you say its a groundhopper channel, and you give us excellent info and filmage from the stadiums you visit. Who cares who scores in these leagues, except when maybe an ex Gills scores lol. Well Farnborough is certainly an excellent stadium for that league, and loved the Rainham End in short behind one of the goals. lol. As you say that ground wouldnt look out of place in L2. Barrow and Newport eat your hearts out. Reckon the nice walk did you good mate. least it didnt rain, for a change

    You mentioned the record defeat. This is in fact a big misnomer. The side put out by the manager that day was a team of supporters bar one regular player, who has since disappeared and one who was coming back from injury. This is an ongoing saga with the Hampshire FA and the ambiguity of when players are allowed to play. There is plenty on the Farnborough forum about this.
