Hampton on Saturday

[Kebab Belly Bob]

Devonshire has injury concerns over Harper, Ian Hodges and Craig Dundas, while midfielder Francis Quarm has long since been ruled out.

They'll be playing then... !

This is a massive game.

I'm driving. From SM1 it is 25-30 minutes.

I'm tempted to do the same.

The other is the bbbbbbus (eurghhh) however Taz is suggesting a beer stop in Kingston.

That was going to be my plan

Seems the quickest way to pick up some dutch courage and make the game

I'm actually tempted with the train and stopping at the Falcon in Clapham. I doubt it will take much longer.

[medibot]

Ah, the Falcon. Amazing beer choice in there!

[Amber Aleman]

My pre-match drinking will be in Sunbury and then the Railway Bell in Hampton (now in the Good Beer Guide).

In the evening I'll probably head off to the beer festival at the Hope in Carshalton (even if we lose, but especially if we win).

"and then the Railway Bell in Hampton"

....but also known to locals as The Dip (for obvious reasons once you've been there)

[Nick the Greek/The Speshul One]

Anyone who doesn't fancy the bus I'm going to be in the Falcon with Taz and possibly others at around midday before heading off to Hampton (Jolly Coopers) a couple of beers later.

11.27 from Sutton gets in to Clapham Junction at 11.52

Trains to Hampton leave at 21 and 51 past the hour and take 32 minutes.


Can you tell I'm looking forward to this one.

We've already made about 15k from prize money I reckon, if we win on saturday that's another 12.5k - very nice.

You lyin' bar steward....

[Amber Aleman]

The Met Office are forecasting wet and windy weather on Saturday.

To be honest I think if we get the ball down on the deck and play our football then the wind won't cause us too much of a problem. I have no fear about tomorrows game, 2 season ago we took 4pts from them with a much weaker side then we have now. They have only won one game at home this season and that was against the whipping boys Weymouth and I would much rather be visiting them then say Dartford, Tonbridge or even Wealdstone. A lot depends on which one of our sides turns up but if its the good one then I thoroughly expect us to be in the hat on Sunday.

I was worried about Aylesbury last year because we did not know what we would face but this time we know the opposition and I am looking forward to Dos showing us what our boys can do

[Stewart]

I wish I could be so optimistic OS. I think I should have the PS tag
