S9 Ep5: 06th September 2024 - FA Trophy 1Q and Chelmsford City

The Non League Football Show

The FA trophy takes the limelight this weekend, 160 sides from Step 4 as the FA Trophy reaches the First Qualifying Round. Phil Annets is with us wearing his new @fatrophyfacts hat, giving us the lowdown and the knowledge you need to understand the weekend’s action and of course to impress your friends.
My next guest is a new Chairman, just over a month in the role, it’s one he’s coveted for years but he’s been sprung into it quickly and in stressful times, but it’s clear Spencer Gore is enjoying his new role, and looking forward to building his childhood club Chelmsford City again to challenge and even aim for the Football League.
Matt Badcock is our man from The Non League Paper this week with thoughts on the week’s news, managerial moves and what’s ahead in this weekend’s issue of the Non League Paper.
