With a major disparity in ratings, the result – for our 2nd team’s first season in the top division – is foreseeable against the strongest teams such as Brighton. On the face of it, without a match report from team members, Andrew looks to have done very well to achieve a draw. Our thanks to Brighton for hosting.
With 4 matches outstanding, the team still has chances of staying up, being placed 3rd from the bottom of the table, just above East Grinstead followed by Crowborough.
