If you don't fancy the overpaid, bloated, manufactured modern day football on the telly this evening make your way along Edgar Kail Way...

For some real 'grass roots' amateur football this evening, 7.30pm kick off, when we stage a representative game between the London Legal League & the Arthurian League.

The London Legal League is open to legal firms, legal departments and Inns of the Court. The League is affiliated to the Amateur Football Alliance (AFA) and plays midweek evenings from September through to March, all games being played on astroturf.

The League comprises of thirty clubs, playing in three divisions. In addition there are three cup competitions:- the Challenge Cup is entered by all clubs, the Weavers Cup is entered by all clubs who are eliminated during the first two rounds of the Challenge Cup and the Invitation Cup is played for by two clubs selected by the League Committee during the season.

Their opponents tonight, the Arthurian League, have some historic old names in their membership, entwined in the early days of football from the latter part of the 1800's in their ranks. When the public schoolboys dominated, before the working class teams from the north introduced professionalism & rose to the top.

Their current league leaders are Old Carthusians, who won the FA Cup in 1881, & the FA Amateur Cup twice the decade after, in 1894 & 1897.

And just in case you do want to keep an eye on the big European matches after all, the bar will be open throughout.
