A bonus away for me, thank's to Tim's Travel Co - and probably my last away this season.
Rather surprisingly, I've never actually been to Eastbourne. I've been to just about every part of the SE coast, from Margate to the IoW and onwards, but never Eastbourne. Have I missed anything? Looking at Google maps, it doesn't look like it.
And the ground appears to be surrounded by countryside on three sides and a huge estate of bungalows on the other. Is there anywhere local to eat or drink?

Reputedly God’s waiting room isn’t it?
3 footy clubs though, Borough, United & Town
I remember watching us play Town at the Saffrons, November 2011 apparently, having just watched it back on the tube
You might quite like it JDL 😉

Yes you have missed the fact the ground isn't in Eastbourne. Nice ground,cracking clubhouse that puts ours to shame but then again every club in the country has a clubhouse that puts ours to shame. |

Am I correct in thinking that Eastbourne Borough still have a 3g pitch? Else with all the rain this week could be in doubt, ( I've tried google and only managed to find that they have had one).

Looking at the odds BetFred has us as even money favourites with the draw 11/5 second favourite whilst Eastbourne are outsiders at 13/5 . This all points to a Stones win but at evens the bookies are either being generous or they are not sure. I think we will in it by the odd goal in one and cement our playoff place in doing so,with 6 more games after this one we'd have to be bloody awful to blow it. The weather looks iffy but unless it's windy it shouldn't affect the game . Good luck to all that are going,I'm away but might go to Folkestone v Lewes weather permitting.

A rather sad look back to the end of last season for Eastbourne.
They had just finished one place and three points outside the playoffs when it was announced that they were being taken over by new owners.
The Eastbourne Herald reported:
"The news will excite Borough fans at the end of a season in which they have finished just one place off a play-off spot, and will doubtless have them dreaming about the level the new regime might be able to take the club to."
Nearly eleven months and 39 games later, they find themselves in 22nd place, three points from survival.
Be very careful what you wish for...

£18 (adults) pay on the day but only £13 online in advance in case anyone missed it. Quite easy to use too. Can only use bloody Apple wallet though, not Google. But PDF is always your friend - as long as they can read the QR code, that's all that matters. Amazing discounts for online orders - must be worth their while, I suppose, but still seems a huge drop in income. |

National League TV no longer showing today's game. Only Yeovil now featured, despite us being named earlier in the week.
Bastards.

Klass straight in.
Gurung and Bentley start too.
Not the strongest look tbh.
George has to play the hand in front of him
