Choose parking right next to the ground. Choose standing wherever you want to. Choose listening to everything the benches say. Choose paying a pound for a cup of tea. Choose proper pies. Choose honest football right on your doorstep.

Choose away days in towns you did not know existed. Choose getting a beer for a couple of quid and standing on the terraces with it. Choose getting a lift to the game with a club director. Choose to give your money to a local club not a soulless corporation. Choose players who know the fans by name.

We should add happy Christmas to all fans, #NonLeague and league, as well as to other clubs and to @isthmianleague.bsky.social HQ
