A lifelong supporter of this once great club, like so many others over the last couple of years, my enthusiasm for the Terrors has  completely disintegrated to  the extent  have not been to watch a match for months.   However, it’s still the first result I look for, nearly always in disappointment

Last night I thought I would pay a visit to the Hub (laughing here) mainly to see my footy mates, who still endure the agony of watching such useless degrading substandard football. I started my two and half hour journey to Mitcham, in high spirits, only to leave 90 minutes later in abject despair, wandering why I had let myself in for watching yet another dreadful experience.

I used to say this league was 3rd rate football, I must apologise, it’s 4ht rate, and Tooting would have a problem climbing out of the Combined counties league which they are heading for! There was only one player last night who could play at a higher level, and that was Hythe No 10 who scored a brilliant goal and covered every blade of grass. As for the others they are playing at the correct level of football, or in some cases above their ability.   

The first 45 minutes the Terror were a mindless shambles, basically just shouting and yelling at each other. The ground is completely non atmospheric and soulless, even the Bog End (all 29 of them) could not be heard above the shouting of the players.  Yes I counted the Bog End fans, as I was so bored. TYe game ended with a derversed win for lowly Hythe

Over the last 10 years the Football club has declined beyond recognition, staggering from one crises to the next. The club will not go anywhere unless a Manager and players with experience in the Ryman Premier are recruited.  This will only take the club to 3rd rate football. And then a whole new set players will take it the next level, Conference South.  The ground is the envy of most, with a team that cannot even get near to matching the surroundings.

  Investment is required to take the club to the next meagre level. I remember the new owner eloquently saying the hub is the way forward for the Football Club. Well it was the way forward for his own ambitions! Where is the money coming from to make the changes needed……Well ask the owner, he’ the only one who can deliver the investment required, either directly or indirectly. The Football club needs change, otherwise it will disappear into obscurity (I know already happened). The Fan base is disappearing, with the loss of some great at individuals, “smell the coffee and wake up!!!!”

What a tragic state for a once wonderful club, come on Mr Owner do something about it, and put some enthusiasm into  a sport which is clearly not on your agenda, and only a cheap lip service!
