24 Hours Later: The old clubhouse is gone and the land has been prepped for the new one. We're just over two months from our first friendly so the race is on to be ready... it's a good job we're not messing around!

95th minute, GOAL! It's almost the last touch of the game... bullet header from Tom Wakley... Great cross from Fini, an exciting end to what turned in to a niggly end of the match. Melton are 2-1 victors and start the season with back to back wins.
#PorkPieArmy
Paul Anderson marked his 20th appearance for Melton Town with a splendid goal from a free kick against Leicester Nirvana last weekend, his fifth goal for The Reds.
#PorkPieArmy
FT: The Referee blows his whistle as the

Tonight joint manager/player Jon Stevenson
@HDstevo
has officially put pen to paper. The ex Leicester City Tamworth & Rushden & Diamonds player will bring a wealth of experience & quality both on & off the field.
There will be a minutes silence for Ian Wakefield before the game v Bourne tomorrow. If supporters would like to bring there scarfs & raise them as a mark of respect. Any football scarf.
Thank you to Asfordby Cobras U12s, who joined us yesterday to help pay tribute to Brian Linnett.
The minutes applause was tremendously observed and a fitting celebration of a life well-lived.
R.I.P. Brian, you will be missed.

Really disappointed to see Kairo go down under this heavy challenge...
Nah, of course he didn't, stayed on his feet, ran half of the length of the pitch, beat the keeper and scored the winner...
All in a days work for KEJ!

Many thanks to Holwell Sports F c for their kind offer of help today following our club house being very badly damaged by vandals in the last couple of days. We do hope to have it put back to some kind of normal as soon as we can.
BREAKING:
The FA Alliance & Leagues committees have recommended that the non-league restructure takes place.
Under the proposal (which requires FA Council approval) 110 clubs at Step 5-7 will be upwardly moved.
Results from the 19/20 & 20/21 seasons will be used to rank teams.
Melton Town not only lost a supporter recently, but, in Brian Linnett of My Guy, Melton Mowbray lost a beloved shop owner. Read our tribute here...
We will be celebrating Brian's life with a minutes applause before KO on Saturday.

Happy 30th Birthday to our Captain, Leon Fray, who, despite what we posted last week, has the most Melton Town appearances amongst the current squad with 151.🙌
#PorkPieArmy
After video and photographic evidence were submitted to the appeals panel, Tom Manship’s red card has been rescinded. No ban as fair, clean tackle was made.
Make up your own mind. Tom is in RED, ie. not the one who went in with two feet off the ground!🤷🏻♂️
