Blue Square South Guide

The Blue Square South Guide is a community for fans of teams in the Blue Square South. The Guide is the place to find all the news and all information about each team, linking you to all the relevant websites including Club Websites, fora and media.

I acknowledge the time and dedication that it takes to run and update websites and aim to be the central hub linking you to all the relevant sites for this League, which is why I don't believe in just copying and pasting news stories that other people have gone to the bother of writing and publishing on the web without even acknowledging where they came from.

I have done a re-design and overhauled the site for the forthcoming season, I hope you like it.

As well as the re-design I have been working on a few extra pages and services, you can now register to be able to get involved, as soon as you have registered you will be able to input pen pics, match reports or write a blog. Register now.

I have set up squad pages for each club, something I didn't manage to get around to doing last season, I will build these up over the next few weeks which will then allow you to input pen pics once you register.

I have set up a search facility so you can search our news database for any player or club, currently our database goes back to the 1st May.

When I set up the guides to the locations last season I input a box that allowed you to get directions to the ground but unfortunately this stopped working during the season, this was due to a dispute between Google and the Post Office over use of Postcodes. It's now back up and running as I have now got around this issue by linking to google externally.

You can e-mail me at csg@confsouth.co.uk or click the contact us button to let me know what you think of the updates or if theres anything else you'd like to see

From the home page of the site you can link to all of the clubs pages on the menu down the left and also the numerous other pages on the site. The news stories on the front page link to external news stories, and the older news stories can be found by clicking 'more news'. If there's a story you think I've missed then contact me to let me know on the link above.

Once you navigate into a clubs page, you can find links to all relevant sites for that club, i.e. websites, fora, media. There are also links in the second column to

• Guide, location and directions - which takes you to a map of where the stadium is situated, within this map you can then search for local amenities i.e. pub, hotel, restaurant. You can get directions. There is also a form so you can tell us of any pubs, restaurants or hotels you have visited in the vicinity.
• Squad info - which will give you details of all the players in the squad and allow you as a supporter to input your own pen pics.
• Match Reports - which will link to any match reports and also allow you to upload your own reports.

You can navigate into any other clubs pages by clicking on their name within the fixtures list.

Live Score updates were originated on the site for the season 2006/2007, and was the first site to do live scores for this level of football. Remember Sky Sports live scores are only updated at half and full time, the live scores are brought to you by volunteers of the clubs and their supporters. Thanks to everyone who has helped with updating the live scores service. I am always looking for people to help so if you can help, e-mail me at csg@confsouth.co.uk or click the contact us button and let me know. It's rather easy to do, all you need is a phone with any wap/gprs connection, most phones these days have this capability.

The site is updated daily, whilst on match days I update the site as soon as possible after games are played but I might be off watching a match so sometimes it will be later than others.

Please, if you see any errors no matter how small e-mail me and let me know, also it is easier to gather information on some clubs more than others so if there's anything you think I should know then please don't hesitate to tell me. All help will be gratefully received.

The Conference South Guide was originated by Nick Bell for the inaugural season 2004/2005. The original site ceased in October 2005 and was re-started by myself on November 20th 2005. My thanks go to Nick for all his help during the handover. I would also like to thank David Bauckham for the use of the photographs from his wonderful site www.pyramidpassion.co.uk.
