Newhaven FC away to Lancing FC in the Isthmian League Playoff at Lancing
The Dockers of Step 5 face The Lancers of Step 4 at Culver Road in a battle for Lancing's place in Step 4. Saltdean being ineligible for promotion pushed the Dockers into a playoff position. Nice day for it with a big crowd in the Sussex sunshine.
It was a tough first half for the visitors who were kept in it by some great saves from Bussy in goal. The deadlock was broken by Robbo early in the second half only to concede a quick equaliser. The hosts took the lead and kept it. Newhaven thought they had levelled it only for the goal to be ruled offside.
So promotion hopes are over and good luck to the Lancers who are a good side.
Ref did good job except for the strange drop ball after it went out for a corner for the reds. We're there 2 lines people, hard to tell.
POTM: Lee Robbo Robinson gave them a run for their money and scored that goal.
Charlie hobbled off with a nasty injury. Hope he is fit for work at the chocolate 🍫 factory on Tuesday.
Hard luck to the boys, came so close to taking the club higher than ever before. Back to fight again next year but have a cup final to play first if they can find a venue.
Too hot for hot chocolate today.
See you somewhere for the Peter Bentley final.
