How This Club Is Transforming Non-League!

[@FarnhamTownFCVideo]

Thanks for having us guys! Appreciate you coming back to see the changes.

[@LocationFootball]

Thank you for having us. Such an exciting journey to watch unfold. Long may that winning run continue 🙌

[@stuartmckenna7979]

Seems like a great club with interesting ideas . Even though I am living in clevedon I will make sure to go and watch at least one match this season

[@LocationFootball]

@@stuartmckenna7979 yeah go check them out! The mystery kitchen food is unreal as well.

[@lummergnu]

Absolutely fucking brilliant guys, guess where me and boys gonna go for our non league game when we take another trip to the island for a long weekend football trip :D

[@LocationFootball]

@@lummergnu amazing news!! 🙌

[@garycarmichael8432]

Great to see you doing so well there Farnham. My home town club are also going about things the same as you. Ramsgate is my home town club, they’re currently top of the Isthmian South East, regularly pulling in crowds of 1000+ and they are building a great community spirit. Hopefully they’ll go up to the Isthmian prem for next season.

[@mrtrappedchest7160]

They even had a great cup run this season, so I can imagine the support

[@panthers_gkd]

That's the mentality for going forward. What a great attitude. Great video, thanks. ❤

[@LocationFootball]

Our pleasure thanks for watching!

[@arfived4]

I started going to watch non-league as it had a sense of community spirit that the professional clubs have lost in the modern era. I now support a members-owned club that is treated as an asset for the local community. If the guys on the exec were to start talking about us in terms of us "being a business" or "an entertainment brand", I would stop bothering.

[@TheOneMr]

Agree, that bit came across a litte harsh, but i'd say he's just speaking plainly about what happens behind the scenes. not often you hear about marketing stratergies revealed so bluntly. Catering to the needs of the supporters still seems to be a clear vision. Pricing i would say is very important beacuse it still has to reamin afforable for the community but at the same time it requires profit to reinvest and grow the club. But yes i agree that his termenology made it seem that he views eveyone just as £10, he seems up for the banter, and not too concerend about being politically correct. This is a great interview and impressed with Furnham Town!

[@StockholmUnitedFC]

Greetings from a new team in Sweden. Looks like you’ve got something special going on over there. Keep it up! 😁⚽️

[@LocationFootball]

Hello thanks for watching. Who's your local clubs in Sweden?

[@betterspud21]

As a Hashtag supporter, I absolutely love what Farnham are doing and I hope more teams get on this kind of philosophy. I'm in my 50s and I love the direction that these guys are taking football. So many people shout it down, trying to say it's ruining their game. They must be mad, cos from where I'm sitting, this is exactly what the game needs and it's starting to bring back so much of what used to be great about the game. So many clubs are failing and folding. The more clubs that get the idea and move into the 21st century, the happier I will be. On another note, I really hope the day comes when Farnham and the Tags get to meet in a proper match. That would be epic.

[@LocationFootball]

Glad you enjoyed the video! We did film at hashtag. You can check our video out on the channel 👍 that would be such a good game 🙌

[@zombievikinggaming4258]

@@betterspud21 So are you local to that area or fans are coming from far just for the matches?

[@ScareWest]

I can't remember which Football youtuber I saw it from, but starting at the very bottom of English Football, it would take 19yrs to get to the premier league. Of course that is with winning each year. I do not know how far down Farnham are but just an interesting fact.

[@willcityaway7971]

Mad Respect from a Detroit City FC supporter. Wish we could have earned promotion. The budget has been constrained by buying the next level.

Thanks for watching!!

[@AfroChilanGringo]

Thank you for highlighting this innovative approach and I hope more clubs learn from Farnham. I just added their KZbin channel. I am a new fan... an American living in Mexico!

[@LocationFootball]

Amazing that this video has reached Mexico!! That's so cool 🙌

[@mikeharper5587]

A really well rounded video. Best of luck to them for the future 👍

[@LocationFootball]

Appreciate the feedback Mike. Hope you enjoy our content 👍

[@nigeljones1969]

What a great story, a football club that is on the up, with a clear plan to progress on and off the pitch. I'm heavily involved at Welling United,I cover the PA on home games and I provide online commentary for our away games. I'm going to follow Farnham on KZbin, a great story

[@LocationFootball]

That's great Nigel! We'll have to come to a Welling game!!

[@normanby100]

Remember them back in 1987 knocking Scarborough out of the F A Trophy thanks to Paul Moody, and Boro won the Conference that season.

[@jonisfeld3963]

I moved out of Farnham in 2019 and then that happened. Very lovely to see.

[@LocationFootball]

Have you been back to a game?

[@AFCWelwyn]

Great watch. Been following Farnham on socials as we are trying something similar albeit from step 7

[@LocationFootball]

Keep going for it!

[@shibafm]

Good luck! I’ll make sure to watch your videos on your journey through the English football pyramid.

[@lapprentice]

I'm a Spurs fan because Spurs is not one of the oil clubs; and the club support grows organically. Seeing someone coming to Farnham with a business mindset to grow the brand is refreshing and reminds me of how Spurs has grown. Will definitely go seeing Farnham one day.

[@LocationFootball]

Definitely do try go to a game it's a really god Matchday experience 👍

[@nollienick1121]

Non league football looks like such a fun thing to goto. If I ever get a chance to visit England I’d love to goto this. Chili and a beer and a game. Count me in haha.

[@LocationFootball]

You must defo try and go to a game!

[@aaron5877]

Best words said: in order for them to buy it they have to enjoy it…. We go to matches, take the time and part with sometimes the few dollars we have because we need an escape, some F off time that we can enjoy with people we love. Wins are great but we just want to have fun.

[@loyalroyal]

I support Egham Town. What Farnham are doing is very impressive. Good luck to them

[@LocationFootball]

How are Egham doing this season?

[@tonyhodgkinson7026]

The more investment in local clubs the better. Football at the top level isn't football anymore. It's entertainment for TV and the connection with the community has completely gone

[@LocationFootball]

One thing non-league most definitely has is the connection with the community. That's why we love it. Thanks for watching Tony 👍

[@williamferguson8543]

Very interesting, well done on the video!

Wild you can get a Farnham shirt with Sidemen or Pitchside as the main sponsor. Makes me consider buying one lol.

Can you please go back to Royston town, atmosphere is quality for every game now, even at the women’s and u23s.

After watching the first few seconds I was really cynical (maybe I’m biased as a Jersey Bulls supporter - who ironically are taking a similar approach), but everything he says makes complete sense. They’ve earned their momentum on the pitch and are riding it in the stands. Needs to be more owners like this.

[@infrasleep]

There's an irony here. At what level does a club cease to be a community club and just another one vying for the FL ? What happens if a L2 side makes the PL (which is the age old dream of fans) and starts increasing prices/catering to the sudden influx of converts /pushing the old support out ? PL clubs dont-and dont need-to give a toss about fans. "Don't like the £1k price for our most affordable season ticket ? Bugger off then, we've got a huge waiting list of PL loving franchise fans willing to pay that and more"(To paraphrase an Elvis Costello lyric "You think you club needs you but you know it never will"-ie clubs say"We only need you when we're s**t") Do you give up the club and look for another non league outfit ? Must admit-if Maidenhead got to the PL I wouldn't really be as interested in them as I am now-a semi pro side punching above their weight in an old style ground. I ironically dont want them to ever get higher than L1 or L2 with the NL being ideal.Some would say traitor etc,but I only like old style football matches. I have zero interest in the PL.As a kid I could list every FA Cup winner /FL Champions from the 19th century onwards. Now I haven't a clue and couldn't care less. I know its one of the "Big" clubs,but what year-no idea-honestly.

[@1882osr]

Was all looking and sounding great, until Harry mentioned the absolute slimeball Thogden. Did you invite his Dad to come tell the fans about how great Mr Putin is while you were at it?
