Coming up from the county leagues are Horsham and Greenwich. Coming down from the Premier are Lewes (Burgess Hill seem to have been repreived). And coming across from other divisions are Cray and Godalming.
Whether that's cast in stone, I'm not sure, but it looks as if it might be.

I notice that Tooting & Mitcham Wanderers have applied for promotion so they could feasibly be placed in the Combined Counties Division 1 alongside the likes of Worcester Park, Banstead Athletic and Dorking. That would place them only 2 steps below where we currently lie.
They're coming to get us Whooooooooooooo

I don't think league position has any great bearing on it. Also, with Walton Casuals going to share at Whyteleafe next season Wanderers could find themselves playing their home matches on Friday nights or Sunday afternoons whatever league they find themselves in.
The only new ground for me next season will be Greenwich Borough, I'll have to go on Google to find out where they play.

It looks like Greenwich are playing at Badgers Sports ground where we played Erith last season.

I had a quick Google of Greenwich Borough and came up with Dartford's ground.....which I was a bit disappointed really. I had visions of trotting onto the 177 or 180 bus from Plumpton (Plumstead) heading into Greenwich for a nice local game......
Then I checked their Pitchero and you're right, it is Badgers. Does this conform to Ryman South standards? I recall when we played Erith Town in the LSC, it was quite barren, with various health & safety hazards abound (I'm sure DeePee and Dave Irons will remember). Still not bad though, a short trip on the 122 for old Plumpy

Andy - just the man! Here's a question which has some kind of bearing on next season......
Are you still involved with the bar? Yesterday I went to see my grandad, who lives at Ash (near Aldershot).....a mere hop from the Hogs Back Brewery , I went to their shop and got a selection of stuff. Will the bar be using them next season too? OTT and RIP are very nice indeed (especially the former) and I had the wonderful A Over T as well (9% time woo hoo), could we start getting this in too? Hoping very much this continues next season.........
And remembering conversations I have had with Fretters, Little Bill, Shymon and a couple of others, I can see demand for a mild or a milk stout too (Bristol Brewery do a good one)........I know you're an expert on these matters so the right man to ask

Another ground new ground to tick off then!!!!
Still got to go to Bromley yet again, when we play Wanderers though. Hayes Lane must be the most visited away ground for myself and a few other Terrors fans

Oh God.....I got absolutely sloshed in there before a midweek LSC game (where Bromley beat us), mind you, it lessened the blow from the annoying kids (that DeePee told were past their bedtime)

It's an okay Spoons, I suppose.
Hayes Lane is not a ground I'd rush back to though. Not saying it's a bad ground. It's quite a nice ground. But I've been there so many times down the years, it doesn't fill me with any excitement going there. It's not a fixture I'm looking out for when they fixtures come out in July.

Hayes Lane has had quite a few .........err.........."improvements" since we last graced their terraces. A re-built bar for a start

If my memory serves me correctly DeePee, no real ale though.
