Six on the Ley Lines
Nov. 30 | East Grinstead is a strange old place. Sitting on the border of Kent and Sussex it has been home to many famous people, drawn to the town by the peace and quiet, the sweeping South Downs and the country pubs with roaring fires. Winston Churchill retired...
The Leatherhead Lip
Nov. 27 | A few weeks ago, Lewes visited FA Cup giant killers Harlow Town and came away with a shock of their own after the Ryman League One North side came from two goals down to win three-two in the FA Trophy. Today we were on the road again to another club whose...
Rooks pay the penalty again…

Sterling work for Saint Nicholas
Nov. 2 | Black suit – check White shirt – check New club tie – check I was ready. After the false start on Saturday I was making my “proper” debut as a director. I was ready to press the flesh, making small talk with my fellow...
Et Tu Brute
Oct. 30 | It had been quite a week for me and Lewes FC. On Thursday morning the first copies of Dripping Yarns rolled off the press and into the shops, and then a few hours later I was voted onto the Board. Unfortunately I was busy dining with the likes of...
