Burnham Ramblers of the Essex Senior League have had a miserable start to their season. Going into Saturday's FA Vase home tie with Hertfordshire Senior League side London Lions they had lost all nine of their league games and their FA Cup game 9-0 against Ilford. They get a chance for some revenge against The Foxes as they play the East London side in the next round of the Vase on Saturday 24th September. The Lions who have made a great start to their league season were unlucky on the day as they missed a penalty during the game.
It's not just the Ramblers who are not in good form as Burnham FC (from Buckinghamshire) are rock bottom of the UHLSport Hellenic League Premier Division. They have played nine league games and lost all nine conceding 52 goals in the process. The Blues were relegated last season from the Evo Stik Southern League Division One (Central) last season and parted company with boss Dave Tuttle in August. Luther Blissett has been helping with the coaching of the team of late. There next game is away at Ascot United on Tuesday evening.
It's not all doom and gloom as Burnham United of the Somerset County League Division One (West) have points on the board with a win (5-0 versus Glastonbury), a draw (2-2 versus Highbridge Town) and a 0-1 loss versus Illminster Town. On Saturday they lost 5-0 to Uphill Castle in a Premier Division/Division One cup group game.
