One of the great things about non-league football is how close you are to the pitch and the players. You hear them talk to each other, see the expressions on their faces - you even get the odd touch of the ball for throw-ins etc. This can, however, be something of a double-edged sword, as I discovered today when a Bath City striker unleashed a shot from about 15 yards that screamed towards goal, dipped over the crossbar and hit me in the nuts.
