Stoke Gabriel FC: Non-league side concede 122 goals in 10 games
The worst team in Britain used to be Fort William, but I think that unwanted title has a new holder judging by this Devon teams nightmare start to the season.https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/54507058
Anyone in that neck of the woods who fancies a game should get in touch pronto, I'm sure they'll consider all comers in their predicament.

Least we know what Eddie Howes up to these days
Re: Stoke Gabriel FC: Non-league side concede 122 goals in 10 games
Played there a few times.
They were given a load of money by the FA for developing the ground, but chose to spend it on players instead. Subsequently got fined and are now skint. They are having to field their youth team to fulfil the first team fixtures
No sympathy from me

I've played there too, many years ago in SDL Prem. They were quite handy then,Shappie wrote: ↑Tue Oct 13, 2020 10:10 pmPlayed there a few times.

I listened to the interview with their manager today on Talksport. He's optimistic.
I may have played against you - I played for and also managed appledore in the SWPL and Played for holsworthy in the old Devon league
My mate is travelling down from north Devon to play for them. He was asked to help them out as they are desperate for experienced players.

Just read that article. A good read and nice change of pace from the usual "problems" some Premier League clubs have, a la Pep Guardiola needing another few hundred million to spend.

That's a lot of goals to concede in ten games. Hadn't realised Howe and his defensive masterplan was back.
