Loads-a-spreadsheets

 I have somehow picked up a case of COVID. This has given me time to set up my many spreadsheets and although I sometimes lose concentration because of the disease, I have been allowed by my Mrs to sit and update my key spreadsheets.

Last season I got so far behind that I genuinely gave up. These last few weeks have allowed me to update the key ones and set up the 2024/25 ones ready for the new season. The men's sheets are good to go and I have added about half a dozen changes since the listings appeared. The women's sheets are always last to appear but this year they seem to be ahead of previous seasons.

All these spreadsheets help me to keep on top of the game of football in England. I did try adding Scotland and Wales a year or two back and also the European leagues but the game is so vast that even limiting my coverage to England I find that I have far too much to do.

Good job I love football.

Non League Selections

 If you have followed this blog for any time you will know that I used to follow Tamworth and I have added them back in on the basis that I can watch them if I ever visit my cousin. Worthing are the team where my mother lives and I have enjoyed the matches I watched there. Those two choices cover the National League and National League South.

In the Southern League I have retained Tiverton Town and Exmouth Town so there are no changes at Levels 7 & 8. Buckland Athletic in the Western League keep their position at Level 9 and Bovey Tracey in the South West Peninsula League keep the Level 10 slot.

The final available slot is at Level 11 and I will keep Elmore in the Devon League now that there is a single division at this level. I have had enough of all the changes here.
