The English Football Pyramid officially extends to Level 11. For the 2024-25 season my choices to follow are: Arsenal & Brentford, Plymouth, Exeter & Wrexham, Salford, Tamworth, Worthing, Tiverton, Exmouth, Buckland, Bovey Tracey, & Elmore. I am also following the women's pyramid which extends to Level 7. My ladies teams are Arsenal, Bristol City, Exeter, Worthing, Torquay, Feniton, Teignmouth & Shaldon Villa.

The weekend results (not including bank holiday Monday)
Results of 24th/25th August:
Very happy that Arsenal beat last season's bogey team.
Brentford were up against it at Anfield.
Exeter disappointed against Peterborough.
Wrexham kept promotion in mind against Reading.
Salford are starting slowly and got a draw against Chesterfield.
Tamworth got a point away from home which is good following promotion.
Worthing got a creditable point away at Hemel Hempstead.
Tiverton lost away to Bracknell Town.
Exmouth got a high scoring draw away at Melksham Town.
Buckland Athletic and Bovey Tracey both march on in the F.A.Vase.
I really ought to watch one of these two teams in the next round if they are at home.
Elmore beat Plymstock United in the Devon League so I must visit them sometime this season.
GREAT TO HAVE FOOTBALL BACK

Tiverton Town started badly
This was a week ago and constituted a poor start to the season.
