NON-LEAGUE clubs can offer fans looking to get a live football fix over the international break something different for their money, according to Hartlepool president Jeff Stelling.
While Premier League and Championship clubs are not in action this weekend, with some EFL games also postponed because of call-ups, there is a full programme of fixtures on offer down the pyramid.
As part of this year’s Non-League Day on March 22 – which sees its partnership with Prostate Cancer UK continue for an 11th season – there is an opportunity for fans to get a picture alongside the Premier League trophy during a two-day ground hop around the Essex Senior League.
