New Years day At Halesowen Town

Not a resolution but a plan to widen my knowledge of other non league clubs in the locality by getting along to their matches when my beloved AFC Wulfrunians are either not playing or a bit to far away to travel.

So today and to resurrect a tradition from my youth it was off to a match at Evo Stick Division 1 South side Halesowen Town for their match with Chasetown

Now I am not going to be a groundhopper with loads of statistics all I would say that it was a very enjoyable day,Halesowen play the type of football I enjoy the ground is compact and the stand on the left of the photo shelters you nicely from a rather brisk prevailing wind,in addition the coffee is excellent and I am assured by a friend that the Burgers are the same.

The match ended in a highly entertaining 1-1 draw and I will most certainly pay another visit to The Grove when I get the chance, that's if they'l have me .
