Interesting to see what happens there over the next few weeks……no manager for either men or women, CEO leaving, several redundancies (on the women’s side at least), no women's squad………
Likewise- have a Burgess Hill season ticket. Obviously a few Saturday clashes but midweek games are normally on a Tuesday so get to a fair few of them.
Heard they are about to get a 27 point deduction and have been kicked out of the cup. Player in question didn’t have international clearance and has played many games. Good source but haven’t seen any confirmation anywhere yet.

Cray Valley Paper Mills just equalised against Charlton in their cup replay (with a penalty that never was, which resulted in a yellow that should have been red……no VAR, obvs :lol: ). 1-1 at HT
Good game at Burgess Hill yesterday. Chichester looked far stronger and were 2-0 within about 10 minutes, Hill pulled it back to 2-1 before Chichester got a couple more. Hill then got back to 4-3 (including a penalty) and then had a potential equaliser disallowed for offside (Coxy went a bit...
