Trafford FC v Colne

Shawe View, home of Trafford FC

Taken at Saturday’s Northern Premier League West Division game at Shawe View, an extremely neat stadium in the Manchester suburb of Flixton that normally lends itself well to many of the things people like about Non-League football, namely being able to walk a circuit of the ground, enjoy a pint on the grass banks and, for the kids, plenty of places to kick a ball of their own about.

Only a few hardy souls were able to do that today as conditions worsened steadily after this picture was taken early in the first-half but the two teams fought hard throughout without creating much in the way of goalmouth opportunities.

Both ended with ten men and the goalless draw was probably a fair result.

There's always a warm welcome at Shawe View however with admission prices of £8 for Adults and there are a trio of back-to-back home fixtures coming up during February.
