Pitch inspection 2pm

If the rain holds off we should be good to go.

I definitely think it is inhumane to make our players play on such a poor surface! ;)

They did not adapt well.......although saying that we could have won the game!!!

Edgar hit the bar in first half and Shields had a good effort pushed away for a corner.

They had one real chance and scored from it.

God help us if Murphy does go and we have to rely on Dixon, or even Femi number 2 on that showing. Totally agree about the shit pitch, so many players losing their footing where it was so muddy.

Also Hornchurch were very physical and our players didn't go in properly for 50/50s, which on reflection is probably not a bad thing, after all we don't want them getting injured. But yeah, it was poor and cold but cheap.

So do I.

Watching an AFC Hornchurch team win a game they shouldn't have for the second time in three days might have been too much to take though.
