F A Cup 2Q ; Hold the Front Page

We were drawn away to Hartley Wintney in the 2Q. However it would seem that there is some confusion. According to the NLP, HW won 2-1 at Walton Casuals, but according to the HW website,...they LOST 2-1 at Walton Casuals. Foul up by the FA? It could only happen when Hampton are involved!

Re: Eastbourne away.

In answer to Tony we have NEVER won 5-0 on the opening day of the season. In terms of away wins we have won 3-1, three times, the last occasion 18th August 2001 @ St Albans. Our best ever opening day results, until Eastbourne, were both 4-0 wins at home, both in the 60s; v Hoddesdon Town on 20th Aug...

Re: Crowds at friendlies

At the risk of being shouted at and bearing in mind that I am not a Club Official. The club's capacity is controlled by the Local Authority and for the QPR game it was 500, the attendance was 495.
