Less than 16 years ago @OfficialBHAFC beat @ManCity (on pens) at this stadium. Kompany and Schmeichel played. The Withdean, once the home track of Steve Ovett was voted fourth worse football ground in the country by the Observer. Anyone know the three considered worse? #NonLeague

A lively match at the Saffrons. Great goals, hefty clearances that are still heading to the Grand Hotel, floodlight failure, late equaliser, and more cup penalties. April Weds 17 @FcParkfield 3 (Won 4-3 on pens) @Sovereignsaint1 3 @eastbournefa Junior Cup SF #nonleague

Great cover with mix of photo and illustration. From the rub on the fixture details it looks like the same cover would have been used all season and details stamped on for each fixture. Classic programme. @ebfc_official @NonLgeProgs

@Billingshurstfc @ebfc_official A seriously good performance against a seriously good side. Better team in first 20 probably. Always going to be near-impossible against a full-time team with on-loan players from Arsenal and Blackpool in the line-up.

Who doesn’t secretly love a penalty shoot-out, especially when there’s a great save from a keeper? Thursday October 19 @eastbournetfc U23 2 (win 4-2 on penalties) #welcroftparkrangers 2 (Eastbourne Challenge Cup)

Superb football shop right in the heart of #Eastbourne by the Town Hall. And what a great name @StudentsofGame Now why didn’t I think of that first! My favourite items have got to be the boxed Subbuteo players. #football #shop #sussex #memorabilia

Alas, I can’t enjoy Round 2 of the Eastbourne Football Cheeseburger Challenge as there are no burgers today. So during a break for a throw-in I amuse myself by counting the fans. 29. Saturday September 30 @eastbourneuafc Reserves v @FC1Westfield Reserves

There is a fine caff near @TheOvalArena3G so what could beat a fry-up followed by action from @menunitedfceast on a Sunday morning? A team supporting a great cause (and with more than decent heading technique like this). Local football at its finest. #nonleague #football #sussex
