A massive game tomorrow, huge six pointer, these next few games will potentially define our season. Desperately need to put together a run and some consistency.

In positive news, Dowse will be back in the dugout following the conclusion of his touchline ban.

Anything other than a win for us is a bit of a disaster really, but some of the other fixtures are hugely significant too...Enfield v Bath, Ebsfleet v Farnborough, we need to keep an eye on those. Salisbury losing to Maidstone would come in handy as well.

You would hope Farnborough don't come away with anything at Ebbsfleet today, if they did and we failed to pick up three points the table would not look good. It's fairly quiet on here for such an important game, lets hope its noisy in the ground! C'mon the Beavers!

Eastbourne have picked up no points away from home in 2026 yet, although homes wins over Maidstone and Torquay in February suggest they might not be as easy a touch as we might hope for. Maybe we might have some added fire to try to avenge that horrible beating we took in the away fixture in November.

As ever, scoring first will help.If Eastbourne can beat Torquay they will be no pushovers. Defensively we have been conceding too many soft goals so need to cut that out.

I’m not sure people realise how difficult a game this will be. Eastbourne team morale seems to have considerably improved since Robbie Blake took over as caretaker manager and they have strengthened the side in the week, since the Dorking defeat, with a new keeper and a forward from the League of Ireland.

Very poor first half performance, Vaz been bright but generally losing the battles all over the park. They are strong and play football, we are smashing it long and looking for scraps . Usual story.

Deserved loss. A very poor first half cost us big time. Enfield is a huge game now if it wasn't already

Couldn't be there today but losing 2-1 in a game like this, however we actually played, is a shocking result. Why isn't Kiernan starting? We're just not the same side without him.
