Carry on Camping

Horsham FC v Chichester City in a friendly at the Camping World Stadium

The Hornets take on the Lilywhites, appearing here in green, in a friendly while the League season is suspended for Covid.

28 league places separate the clubs but it was City that opened the scoring. In a 10 goal thriller, the Hornets came out on top, 6-4. Good football played by both sides with lots of goals scored on the break A few turn overs as well. In the end, the difference between the 2 sides was the Hornets penalty (outside the box ref!) and a top draw save by the keeper.

I like the Horsham squad numbering, doubling up on no. 4's to confuse the ref.  Not that he needed much help being confused with enough indecision and U-turns to keep Kier Starmer busy at PMQ's for a while.
MOTM: Hornets keeper, Brad House, for that top corner save. 👍

As ever, top class catering from Horsham FC, putting so called Elite clubs to shame.

Glad it was a bit warmer tonight, typical when I finally remember to wear my gloves.

If I don't see you before, have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Brighton & Hove Albion WFC face Chelsea WFC at the Peoples Pension Community Stadium in the WSL

Back to the Broadfield Stadium today for the first time since Tranmere were beaten there by Crawley in May 2019.  Today was Brighton vs Chelsea.  It was a horrible wet and windy day., a bit different to last time.  Chelsea edged it by single goal in a game of few clear chances but Brighton keeper did well to keep it to a single goal.  0-1 to the Blues.

My first WSL game.  Really enjoyed it, the best live football so far this season.

POTM: Brighton's no 12 Denise O'Sullivan, the midfield tackling demon

Must have been the wind but after some wayward shooting, there are about 10 balls bouncing around Crawley that need sanitizing.

Glad I wore my new Christmas jumper and gloves.

The Scaranometer has gone home in disgust so there won't be a rating for the Veggie Chillie. Coffee was not coffee. Time to warm up with a hot punch and mince pies at home.

See you soon from somewhere non-league.

Rule of 6

Horsham FC v South Park FC in a friendly With the local leagues suspended until the new year, the Hornets played host to local rivals the Sparks.

On a freezing and misty night at the Hop Oast stadium with only the bravest fans out in the cold,  Horsham played some good football and showed their quality as they put six goals past South Park.  It was 4-0 at the break and finished 6-1.

Excellent goal filled night out under the lights.  Wonder how Tranmere got on in the Micky Mouse cup. 

Top hot chocolate and good chips too.  Hope to be back soon.

Hope I don't get stuck here
