Leatherhead away for me. I've played on that pitch, seen Daley Thompson play on it and been served a beer by tennis ace (newspaper speak) Jeremy Bates.
Bring on the Tanners.

There's a decent CIU club in Leatherhead... also a walk along the River Mole has much to commend it. Bit of industrial archaeology due to site of Ronson's lighter factory. |

Reminds me of Chris Kelly - 'The Leatherhead Lip'...  http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/2350112/Leatherhead-return-to-the-nations-lips.html"Alan Weekes from the BBC tracked me down and asked if I would appear on Match Of The Day that night. I had had a few so I just slumped in the chair. Jimmy Hill asked me if I thought we would win [against Leicester] and I said 'yes, we'll win — they're useless'. Some people thought I was an arrogant little whatever, others thought it was ok." |

No but that's when the ties are actually being played. |

This draw makes me realise how few clubs I have on my new doorstep in Essex. Braintree, Hornchurch and Bishops' Stortford are all out.
Daggers or Billericay away for me.

Aren't Billericay the ones spending a fortune on wages? That would come with a big media frenzy and would almost certainly be on TV I think. |

There is (or was, it's been years), I've had a few drinks in there. Watched the world darts final when that bloke from Cheam got there. Shame he lost, we were having a great night. |

Yes they are spending £3k a week on Jamie O'Hara, Jermaine Pennant and Paul Konchesky...each. Owned (and managed) by a bit of a nutter by all accounts, the "dream" mural at the ground is frankly a bit embarressing.  https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/4129322/billericay-towns-millionaire-owner-opens-up-over-his-secret-torment-which-left-him-massively-depressed/ |

From the services at Leicester
To the slums of Northampton
We travel over England
And one day Europe too
Cos we all follow the Swindon
We're the famous Town End crew.

Whenever I hear Cheam, can't help but conjure up images of East Cheam's most famous resident of 23 Railway Cuttings |
