Evening all, Not sure if this has been mentioned on here yet but this year's event, which I run, is almost upon us.
This Saturday, when we're without a game, there are lots of non-league games taking place instead. Many of our local sides are offering discounted or even FREE ENTRY to QPR supporters as a result.
Ashford Town (Middx), Bedfont & Feltham, Hampton & Richmond Borough, Harrow Borough, Kingstonian, Northwood and Uxbridge are all running various schemes to get you in.
If none of these clubs are anywhere near you, use the match finder on the Non-League Day website to find your local team: http://nonleagueday.co.uk/map.html
It's got to be Harrow Borough v Dulwich Hamlet for me.
Thanks for your time.

Chesham United are playing at home to Truro in the Southern League on NLD. Admission is free for under 16s and pay what you want to for adults - with a minimum price of £3 per person.
Really decent standard of football and worth the normal admission price of £10.
For anyone in the North Herts/South Beds area there's another SLP clash as Hitchin Town host current league leaders Poole. This should be an entertaining match as Poole are currently unbeaten and Hitchin have also had a surprisingly strong start to the season.
Like Chesham under 16s are free, and adults £5 with the production of a season ticket from any League, or non-League club.
If you've never been to either Top Field (Hitchin) or The Meadow (Chesham), they're two of the oldest and most unspoiled grounds in Southern England. Everything non-league football is about, and well worth a visit on their own account.

Thanks a lot to the forum admin for making this a sticky thread, I really appreciate it.
Things have gone a little crazy since I posted this with the campaign across the country really starting to hot up.
I don't know if you saw it this morning but Colin Murray wrote a nice feature in Metro which seems to have been received really well. He's also invited me on to his Talksport show tomorrow which it sounds as if he's pretty much going to dedicate to NLD.
Cardiff City, Manchester City and even Robbie Fowler who all have considerable followings have been tweeting about it today so I'm pretty chuffed.
Hopefully there'll be a story on QPR's site tomorrow or at least a tweet but even if there isn't they were good enough to get Charlie Austin to back our campaign, a photo of which is on our website.
I mentioned I was going to Harrow Borough and I still am. I spoke to them the other day and they said they'd be really happy with a crowd of 250. I think this should be achievable especially if a good few of us go along. I think they got 1500 the last time we played them in a friendly. It is only £5 is you're a QPR ST holder or member and U16s get in free with paying adults or £1 if on their own. If you want a further incentive, Leroy Griffiths is in their side at the moment.
I know finances are tight at Earlsmead so each person who goes will make a real difference and that is of course the case at most other clubs on our patch too so please go to a game if you can.

Just back from Needham v Erith.2-0 to the market menBoth goals in the 2nd half,a dodgy red card,and a bumper crowd of 225. Also saw a fellow ranger who lives up here too. Good day all round and only a fiver.
Leroy Griffiths(sp) put in a cameo as sub 3-1 to Borough, which was incredible after the first 10 mins looked like it was going to be a 5-0 to Dulwich Hamlet.
Dulwich Keeper though, makes me wish I'd taken an interest in my prime (maybe he had an off day).
