Virginia Water to move away from Arbour Park – Football in Berkshire
Combined Counties North side Virginia Water have announced that they are to move away from their current base at Slough Town’s Arbour Park.
The club had moved to Slough after spending a few years under a similar arrangement at Stag Meadow in Windsor.
The primary driver for the move is that the Football Association want to discourage three clubs from sharing the same ground. Slough Town already host Berkshire club Langley at Arbour Park.
Following the FA’s withdrawal of sanction for 3-way Ground Share Agreements, VWFC will not be renewing their contract with Slough Town FC at the end of the season…
VWFC would like to thank Ashley, Kay, Adie, and all the staff at ST for their excellent hospitality and support during our stay. As one Chapter closes, another begins, and VWFC are delighted to announce that from the 2026/27 season our new landlords will be Chertsey Town FC…
We are looking forward to working with Mark and the team at CTFC, and thanking them for hosting us. Ceri Jones CEO – Virginia Water FC
Waters will share at Chertsey Town’s Alwyns Lane ground from the 2026/2027 season. Chertsey currently host Step 7 club Dial Square. We understand that Dial Square will be moving to share with Knaphill FC next season.
There is a current planning application in place for Virginia Water FC to play at a purpose built ground near their home town. Chertsey feels like a much closer and sensible venue for Waters rather than the longer trek to Slough, although the move will mean playing on grass rather than 3G.
Virginia Water have had a very solid season and sit 11th in Combined Counties Premier North.
PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
