Great draw on paper for the Rocks today. I remember Hornchurch's Uncle Urchin days, they have done well to shrug off that stigma. I think Karl meant well though. Also Littlehampton FC after a cheering crowd of 3000 (a number of which could be heard from afar whilst at the White Hart pub prior to kick off) helping the team to dispatch Loughborough U 4-0 btw running out to Spandau Ballet's song GOLD earning themselves a game at Wembley. xxx

A great day for the Golds and a great carnival atmosphere throughout. Once the first goal went in after barely 30 seconds it was a long way back for Loughborough and unfortunately for them the Golds just had too much all afternoon. As for history making. They’re the first ever Sussex club to make it all the way to the Vase final or it’s equivalent(Amateur Cup) after Eastbourne Utd and Whitehawk failed at the semi final stage in the past. Also, I do believe they’re also the first ever non league Sussex side to get to any final in the Trophy or Vase.

I hope The Marigolds, as I remember them, thrash Newport Pagnell Town.
On a spare afternoon earlier this season, Baz, Ali and I somehow met up to see them away at Coventry United (the nearest non-League team to Baz's home he was happy to hop on the day - 90 minutes away from his home!). NPT were the dirtiest, snarliest, most shithousery team I've seen for years.
When a Coventry United player put in an awful tackle which got a merited red card all the other NPT players, including the keeper, surrounded the referee snarling, at which point I shouted "Which one of you is Roy Keane?"
