I was there too. Very entertaining match. Pitch cut up a lot towards the end but the club did well to get the match on after all the rain we've had.

Indeed. They have done a lot of work on the pitch. Last year that would probably have been off.

Credit to the ref as well, tried hard to let the game flow, unusually good for the Isthmian.

White, the owner, benefited from several factors, the first being the demise of Dorking FC; he stepped into their rebuilt ground at Meadowbank
£8,000,000 from the Borough Council
£1,000,000 from Surrey FA
£500,000 from Sport England
The annual income from a town centre 4g pitch is usually north of £15,000.
They also have fantastic hospitality facilities which will generate a steady income.
The Surrey FA have their HQ there (which is a bit rum) not sure whether they pay rent
He also claims backing from many unnamed sponsors, who, for example, bankrolled the signing of a £15K player, plus being pals with Callum Best and by default, Beckham, et al.

I was at Brighton versus Brentford where the away fans chanted “we’ve got more fans than you”. An exaggeration but you could see their point
