WON in my small deeply town. Oh my God, I've lived here for over 20 years and I never thought I would live to see the day that this town voted anything but Conservative. I am so so happy.

Sadly, lost in the play off final. They came back from 1-0 down and then from 2-1 down and cruelly lost to a late Truro goal in injury time. A fantastic first season in this league finishing 2nd on 90 points. If they can hold onto their best players and reinforce they should be winners or in the play-offs again minimum next season.

So, one game away from back to back promotions on Bank Holiday Monday. Would be a fantastic achievement for them but going to be a tough, tough game. Last night's game was dreadful but they got their goal.

Last league game of the season for tomorrow. A long away trip to Plymouth. Hoping they can wrap it up and finish second. Then the play-offs. Been a great first season for following promotion last year.

A proud supporter this morning. Promoted last year and looking likely to get promoted again - some achievement. They've hit 84pts (they might hit 90) and scored the most goals in the division. Even if they'd won last night it was out of their hands. Still all to play for.

Game of the season for tonight. Away at Truro City, postponed multiple times. Bracknell are 5 points behind the leaders with a game in hand. Only 3 more games to play for . Very slim chance they will get automatic promotion but looking good to go up from the play offs.

A story. If you live in or you would have seen posters on prominent lamposts appealing for news on a stolen dog, Maple. Maple was a therapy dog stolen from her vulnerable owner in March 2022. Her owner set up a GoFund me page and her posts on instagram (instagram.com/reunited_therapy) were heartbreaking. I encourage you to read how this owner never gave up. This week, after a year, Maple has been found and returned to her owner!

4 more games to go for season. An away tie to Truro tonight. fifth game in 9 days! A real tough game at any point in the season. A must win if there is any hope of automatic promotion.

Town FC. A little bit of fixture congestion coming up due to waterlogged pitches.

Unearthed this Royal County of Official Guide from 1991 on what is, coincidentally, the 25th anniversary of the County Council's demise. I can't see much online about the guide, so I'll scan and PDF it over the weekend and add it to the so you can all share in the 1990s nostalgia!

Big, big night for my teams tonight.
Town play away at Truro. A team they lost 3 nil at home to recently. Tonight they face them away with a game in hand and the league leaders Weston Super Mare losing last night. A win for and they are set up nicely to win the league. A tough, tough game though.

A shout out to my local team, Town FC who play in Step 7 of the English Football Pyramid. Having got promoted last year they are in good shape to get promoted again. Made the 1st round proper of the FA against Ipswich. I got a season ticket this year and am having a ball watching them.

FYI

Step 1 - Premier League
Step 4 - EFL League Two
Step 5 - National League
Step 6 - National League North/South
Step 7 - Southern League Premier South

Bracknell Town FC do not know when they're beaten. They've been 1 nil down, then 2-1 down and now 3-2 up. Amazing team.

There’s an old inn along the Forest Road. It’s called the Stag and Hounds.
They say it’s more than six hundred years old, and that Henry VIII and Elizabeth I used it as a hunting lodge.
If you believe what they say, the Stag and Hounds marks the exact centre of the old forest.
