TheBogEnd / Merstham v Toots

**Posted by evthedog** 13/1/2023 2:11 pm

The excitement is building as I prepare for the arduous journey from Croydon into the depths of depraved Surrey to watch Toots destroy the Moat dwellers of Merstham tomorrow.

It will be my first league match since before the lockdown and I sincerely hope not to be disappointed, unlike the crap friendly last season.

Dear old Ev,
I am forever in awe of your astounding optimism.
I for one won't be travelling anywhere as I'm currently nailed to the sofa with a particularly nasty dose of this flu bug that's going around.
But for that I'd be down at Homelands watching Kennington taking on Erith & Belvedere in a top of the table SEC Prem clash.
Good luck Ev.

Dave, I'm so sorry to hear that you've got a dose. But please do not worry about me as Gary will be there to hold me up.

get well soon

Having worked myself up into an uncontrollable state of excitement over today's match, the plug has been pulled out of my bath of anticipated delight by finding out that the match is postponed due to the Moatside moat overflowing leaving the pitch waterlogged.

Drat..double drat...triple drat!

I was ready to go to the match on Saturday with Gary, but I'm not going to the evening match and getting my bish bosh frozen off.

Unless a major thawing is on the go I’m not 100% it will get played, the ground is bloody hard and many Isthmian games were called off tonight (or last night even as I’m posting so late).

Edit: Seems the job’s a good ‘un, that’ll be an exciting evening with Football Web Pages for company…..
