En route to Wembley Stadium for @thefsa.bsky.social X FA structured dialogue session. Lots on the agenda, including a number of non-league related matters. And always travelling with some relevant reading material.

Couldn't resist. Enjoyed Dougie's foray forward and then tracking back on Tuesday night, at the death, in the East Riding FA Senior Cup.

Good luck to the Ferriby lads today at Consett and best wishes to those travelling. Here's a photo (1929) and map showing their former Vicarage Field ground and a 1962 map showing their, now redeveloped, Belle Vue. Photo from Historic England

Tonight's highlight was bumping into former Ferriby favourite, Ben Leyland...as seen on TV with Pickering Town. And of course all the fan chat and laughs in the stand.

Disappointingly, down and out of the @EastRidingFA Senior Cup already.. Lads battled but @HornseaTownAFC took their chances and could have scored more. OK, I understood we'd have a weakened side but zero strength on the bench. Perhaps just take the fine next season 🙄

We've braved it for @north_ferribyfc vs @HornseaTownAFC in the @EastRidingFA Senior Cup. Horrible conditions so we've opted for the covered stand. Think i stepped in every puddle on the way to the ground.

Eldest daughter spotted this in Frankfurt and thought of me/Ferriby. Think I'd prefer it in hoops rather than stripes 😉

Hey @ben-cansonthetrain.bsky.social, just found the programme of my only visit to Newport Pagnell back in 1994 in the county cup. We went confident against lower league opposition, but were whupped. And £9k for a new Cavalier 👌

It was a tie with Sam Aynsley so a casting vote went to Josh Thacker for his worldie the other week. Many congrats to Josh, our #FerribyFanzine Player of the Month for October 💚

1-1 draw against Blyth Spartans, yesterday. We should have put it to bed but at only 1-0 ahead, we all said, "we know how this ends". Again, very few chances. We sorely missed Clements (suspended) and Whiteley (ankle injury). Walker's goal was a peach, however.

#SteepleSinderby are at home to Hartlepool in the FA Cup 1R today. Pools players are out drinking the night before, looking smart in £150 clobber. Here's how the papers reported the tie & Ginchy's commentary in the SS's 3-0 win. But there's fan trouble in the Orchard.

Frustrating night. Started really well but Ossett scored at crucial times. We switched off for their equaliser. They kept battling. Not many chances. Clements' sending off after final whistle will cause us problems. Ref never seemed in control. Good #PatheticCasuals attendance.

Where are Steeple Sinderby in the @EmiratesFACup today? In a literary quirk, JL Carr did not have a 4R Qualifying, and so they go straight into the draw for the 1st Round Proper on Monday 👌

Cheers Jan. Really glad you've enjoyed it. Would love to give THE poster of that world cup a Ferriby makeover. Amazing graphic with so much energy.

Was so excited to have a nosy around @bpafcofficial.bsky.social's former Park Ave ground during the week, and what remains of the old covered terrace behind the goal. So evocative. Painted floodlight concrete blocks, counted c. 41 steps, toilet block & pre-decimal pricing.

The Ferriby lads were on fire last night. Kept 12 match unbeaten BPA at bay. Game of few chances but we pushed well in the 2nd half. Charlie Clements once again added another dimension. Stars across the pitch and we kept up the tempo. Most enjoyable night.

Game of two halves, today. Absorbed pressure in the 1st w/ top defence and were class in the 2nd. Charlie Clements was inspired coming off the bench. Top performance all round especially Sam Aynsley, Louis Kirk, Josh Whiteley and some fancy footwork from Lewis Dennison. 💚
