Enjoy for those able to go!

12pm a bit early to turn up for a 3pm game.

In Redz. Nicely socially distanced. London Pride in plastic cup and tired out after my night shift.

Hopefully the team will lift my spirits.

Another £25k in the kitty.

Fans back in and we're back to referees trying too hard to not be swayed by them, so they give everything to the visitors. Joke of a penalty.

We're not playing well enough though, midfield is non-existent, wing backs providing nothing, everything created has come through Matthews and Watters so far. Great play by both for the goal. Could do with Nadderz on to stretch them a bit more. Feels very similar to the Southend game so far. Allowing a garbage team to bring us down to their level.

HT. Fairly even game. We go 1-0 up through a simple, but well worked goal through Watters after he rounds the keeper after being played through on goal. We never looked in control as usual after leading and the referee makes a terrible decision and gives a penalty after ignoring the first blatant foul outside the box. Stupid challenge by Frost to give away the penalty though. If you foul someone outside the box make sure they can’t get past- naive.

Ffs why are we so crap at defending? Especially set pieces

Yes, hat trick. Wonder which ball Watters takes home.
