ON THE ROAD - DRONFIELD TOWN

[@Owen-fe8xu]

Gutted I didn’t know you’d turned up to watch. I played in the game 😂 Dronfield - Number 4. Been watching since day dot, when you consider we’re the only club not to pay players at this level, the clubs facilities are unbelievable and we’re not doing too bad in terms of league position. Class video again. UTT 🔴⚫️

[@EatMyLemonade]

Damn could of played better 😉😂

[@Sonderax]

How does it work not being paid. Are you under contract or it is more voluntary. If your available you play??

[@louispryce9813]

[@nathanallott5213]

Parkgate don’t pay their players either

Hi Smiv, Those wagon wheel tables originally held electrical cable. Loving OTR the best football channel on you tube hands down. Football!.⚽️⚽️

[@R0byPE]

This is big smiv my friend. Would have been easy to just enjoy the football yourself, so as somebody who will probably never see Dronfield Town play at home, thanks for taking us all along! :)

[@bonescontra]

A cable reel is a round, drum-shaped object such as a spool used to carry various types of electrical wires. Cable reels, which can also be termed as drums, have been used for many years to transport electric cables, fiber optic cables and wire products. Cable reels usually come in four different types, each with their own uses: wood, plywood, plastic and steel.

[@glennwhite9650]

Smiv, I believe the huge wagon wheels are electrical reels 👍

[@michaelbarrymore5349]

*Nerd alert*. Technically, it's a wooden spool table probably used as a cable reel. You can get them on eBay for a tenner.

[@adamseward4923]

Brilliant video smiv, and thanks for coming and shining a light on little Dronny Town (even if it was by mistake) we really are a brilliant club. Boys from u7 and girls from u9s one of which my daughter plays for and I coach (u11 reds). Keep doing what you do mate love the videos

Come down to Weston super mare , just down the road from Bristol and has players on show like Scott laird who scored for Preston against Man united in 2015 and pushing for the play offs in The southern premier always 500 plus there it’s the biggest capacity per home game in that division

Another excellent video Smiv and happy 100 grounds mate! Good to see you found a replacement last second to Sheffield FC postponement. To be honest Matt, Dronfield Town was your third time down into the 10th tier (step 6) of English football (Thurlow Nunn League Div. 1 - Coggeshall Ut 2020/21 and Hashtag Utd 2018/19). Cheers, Matt! Keep up the great work. EDIT: I just noticed that I officially passed the 2-year membership mark with you. That FIFA World Cup trophy looks beautiful next to my name.

[@martinpreece6501]

Charlies comment on the prawn sarnie.....CLASSIC...I'm still chuckling!

[@amincider2451]

Smiv! The wooden table that you are asking about are what high tension electrical wires are shipped on. I think it’s a spool of wire. I cold be wrong but that’s what it looks like. Brilliant video as usual. Thanks for highlighting clubs we wouldn’t normally see.

[@bradleybolton3843]

Well rescued. Great video as always.

[@kanejdrew]

Happy 100 Smiv! You’ve definitely got to come up and see Chesterfield soon. Not too far from Sheffield FC and Dronfield Town. 97 years in the football league before being relegated a few seasons back. Looks like we’re well on our way back to the promise land… a fairly new ground, shambolic refereeing and most importantly, we serve Dr Pepper! What do you want from the National League?!

[@samrevell8778]

Those circular wooden table like things you saw are called cable drums and are mainly used in warehouses to store hundreds of metres of tubing and cables. Even though there secondary use nowadays is to be makeshift coffee tables for hipsters

[@rogerbenest3164]

A lesson to all clubs about communicating better with your fans. Sheffield F.C. could have been featured but Smiv ended up at a lower league side, had a reasonably good time and gave them some good exposure.

[@준하-r8p]

Congrats on your "ground 100th"!! A fan since last year when I found the Pride Park video. As a huge football fan from South Korea 🇰🇷, we never have the chance to see non-league football here. I just love the atmosphere of non-league football. (A.F.C. Rushden & Diamonds being one of my fav teams. I honestly don't know why but I do. Lol) Anyways, keep up the good work Smiv!! Loooove your vids! BTW, can you visit the Emirates Stadium...? Want to see Spurs & Hammers fan reacting to the Gunners! 😅

The wooden round things are for piping or wire. A spool!!

If you go to Dronfield at the end of the season, you can often get to watch the cricket pitch behind the open end too

[@juliansmith4295]

8:25 spools for giant cables

[@tthaas]

It's even more appropriate that the 100th episode of On The Road is a non-league team. Sure, seeing a huge club like Celtic or Bayern or PSG would be fun, but OTR really has it's roots in non-league; seeing an 8th tier team for the centenary episode just seems.... right. Even more right is be seeing a game that gets called off so you need to find another non-league game is even better. Oh, and the spool tables you keep seeing are used for bulk electrical cables.

[@bombersbeat1470]

Those wheel things are reels for cable. Cable that is used for fiber optics and similar things. FOOTBALLLLLLLL

3.5 stars for facilities seems very harsh, such a low league and the pitch was playable in terrible conditions, meanwhile close by a higher division clubs game had to be called off because of the pitch, they had kids activities, a club house, merch at the ground, a snack bar, for the level i thought it looked brilliant
