Heartbreak for us but - much as I hate to say it - the best team on the day (based on their second half performance) won. I'm off to catch up with my friends and watch the presentation. Thanks to everyone at Walton and Hersham for their help today. Be seeing you.

There has been activity around the club recently leading to a no of enquiries (complaints?) that the club is open for business.100% untrue. In fact the club is working with a fantastic group of ladies who are distributing food to the needy. THIS is the activity being carried out.

Strong believer in that if your good enough you'll be picked up by a club suited to your level. In the meantime ignore the whispers and promises just play. Enjoy yourself and put yourself on display Alternatively sign for a big club and bring a cushion. Be a nice trackie won't it.

On Saturday we produced a woeful performance to rightly lose to @Basingstoke_FC. (trumpet out) Prior to that our last league defeat was on 25th Feb 2020, a run of 49 unbeaten league games. Shame they couldn't make the 50 but still a great effort from the boys. 👏 (trumpet away).

More sad news I'm afraid. Today we lost our original centre forward Gary Allen. The man was a proper mean no 9, with an amazing goal scoring record. Once scored 6 consecutive hat tricks. One of the bedrock that our club was built on. Sleep easy mate. Love ya.
