Goole AFC

The final weeks of the season are upon us and, certainly at Non-League level, it is a time for clubs to reflect back on the campaign and celebrate.
 
That doesn’t have to mean success on the pitch, although of course it is nice if there has been some, but merely the fact that clubs have survived another year and provided a focal point for their community and a place for people to come and enjoy their football at whatever level.

That certainly seems to be the case at Goole AFC of the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League First Division South as they prepare for the final home match of the campaign against Newcastle Town on Saturday 23 April.

Admission will be on a ‘Pay What You Want’ basis while the club also gave away around 1,000 tickets to local school pupils earlier in the year only to see the games they were valid for postponed due to bad weather.

Those tickets will be valid for the Newcastle match so hopefully a bumper crowd will be in attendance at the Victoria Pleasure Grounds where admission for Under-18’s has been free throughout the season.

The remainder of April is a really busy time for free admission and ‘Pay What You Want’ matches in the Non-League game. 

I posted an article a few days ago about Colne FC, Chipstead FC and Hertford Town FC and there are also details on Twitter of games at New Mills AFC, Carterton FC, Kidlington FC and Atherton Collieries.
