They're currently in 11th place out of the 22 teams in Conference South, which is five levels below the the highest soccer league in England, the Barclays Premier League.
The team, also known by their nickname of "the Clarets", will face second place Boreham Wood at 4 p.m. GMT on Monday.
#4. They May Have Left Town, but just before Arbor Networks relocated to Burlington, Marketwire announced they just landed a new contract with the UK-based Quadrant Networks.
#5. Pictured: Today we see Jim Curley's photo of the banner on the Common welcoming home Spc. Joshua Holladay.

I'll get some from that Chelmsford for tomorrow, I think we'll have this as a fairly regular feature in Five Things from here on out.

I really like the idea.....I've been in Chelmsford UK (much bigger than us) but not Chelmsford Canada...would be great to have a 3-way conversation!

I actually found two Chelmsfords in Canada (Ontario and New Brunswick), but the one in New Brunswick is very tiny!
The one in England is approximately the size of Providence, Rhode Island, so lots of news out of there.

Who added the extra one.....there is only supposed to be three! Can't have everybody cashing in on our name! At least there were only three at the time of the bicentennial in 1976...theie mayors were here to celebrate with us! Maybe the one in New Brunswick was too small to have a mayor!

And I think the one in Ontario is actually part of Sudbury, which is also much larger than here populationwise.
