Game of the Week: Bristol Manor Farm v Basingstoke Town

I've been meaning to mention the 'Farmy Army' for some time as I have always been taken by the pictures of their ground, 'The Creek', close to the river and with trains chugging past on what is meant to be quite a scenic journey from Bristol Temple Meads to the nearby Sea Mills station.

There are actually some pictures on the club's twitter account at the moment of flooding all around the area of the ground although the pitch itself is clear and Saturday's game is on as I write.

The club offer discounts for anyone arriving by train and there are also discounts on the standard admission prices this Saturday for Bristol City season ticket holders.

Basingstoke arrive just two points off the foot of the Southern League Division One South but with more pressing matters off the field having left their home at the Camrose last summer and with uncertainty over whether they will be able to return to the town next season.

The club website has a number of updates on plans to upgrade the Hampshire FA complex at Winklebury.
