Virtual Chips

With the F.A. expunging the results of most. Non League games and resulting League Tables I have a dilemma as to what to do for my 2020/21 season Chip League. Being a non conformist I have decided to call it a day but declare a winner contrary to F.A. guidelines.

This may not be fair for Shirebrook Town F.C the previous winners in 2018/19 and 19/20 as I was unable to give them a chance to retain their crown. The ladies at Shirebrook had promised me home peeled, cut and cooked chips for this season!

With only 9 grounds visited my football has been substituted with online matches and I had contemplated eating different branded oven chips to review and score while watching each match. This fell by the wayside and would only have added to the weight I have put on during Lockdowns.

This season’s winners are Ilkeston Town who scored an impressive 85 but were closely followed by Hemsworth Miners Welfare on 83 although this ought to be attributed to Nostel Miners Welfare as it was their home game being played at Hemsworth. This means that in the coming season I have great hopes of revisiting the chips at Shirebrook and Ilkeston as previous winners. We live in hope of a positive completed season.
