cup of tea

You'd expect Tamplin to announce a change of heart or such like and do a u turn. If he truly has gone though then Rickay will have to do a major re-think and that will mean decimating the playing staff. Good thing for them though is the facilities are a lot better now.

I'm going to be confident and go for a 1-2 win to Hornchurch crowd 220

He's back in the headlines where he likes to be

Prefer sunny Carshalton!!! Great result against a good passing team, really pleased

Yeah it wasn’t bad

Love it to be 0-6 to us but that isn't going to happen (opposition is too good for that). Going for a 1-3 Win to us, attendance an optimistic 430 but to be honest, I'd take a scrappy 0-1 to us.

It’s just a bit of jesting MikeMike , there’s a lot of that going on with this competition. I’m the prince of darkness apparently On our form, I wouldn’t bet against us though!!! (Lewis Smith might !!!)

Was hoping for Gloucester City away!! One of these tricky draws where both sides will fancy their chances but both sides were probably hoping for an easier draw. Think it will be tough but I think we will start as favourites

I really hope that someone has recorded the goals as I stupidly missed the game.

2-0 att 216

Good performance - the front two are working well and there were good performances around the pitch. Their no 9 might have taken one or two fouls but boy, was he dishing it out - I’m guessing that the Wingate bench must have missed those incidents! Correct result and the better team won. These are the sort of games we need to win if we’re going to be in the mix. Well done Hornchurch

We’re screwed !! No deal brexit 🔥

It would have been nice to get an away day but to be honest I just want to get the win and home advantage is okay for me. Let's get a run going in one of the cups

Every single season Brightlingsea do this to us , we should have been out of sight by the end of that first half but somehow couldn’t convert any of the chances. They always seem to manufacture an atrocious goal to win it. One shot on target? Don’t remember seeing much more. How do they do it? We were clearly the better team. Their goalkeeper was their best player, well done to him. I can only put it down to every Brightlingsea official has now sold his or her soul to the Devil, that’s the only thing that makes sense. Bitter? yes I am!!!

I can’t remember winning here but I really fancy our chances today - going for a 0-2 win for the Urchins att 212

Very confused as to how the length of the grass makes a difference - if he’s insinuating that it stops teams passing then how did we manage it? (second goal for example). Oh well

To me this was actually a better result than last week. OK we got a bit lucky with the first goal but the second goal was quality. Tough game and a bit of a fight in midfield on occasions as our yellow cards show but a really good result and one I think we deserved. Dickson was immense again today. Moving George Sanders out of position probably didn’t help him but he was obviously out there to combat the pace of their no 11 and he did play ok there to be honest. Think their no 4 spent most of the game with his hand up claiming offside! Very good three points well done Hornchurch

Going for a 1-0 to Hornchurch att 239

First half was tight with maybe Worthing creating the better chances but the second half was all about Hornchurch. Worthing just couldn’t live with Dickson (very good hat trick) and Uchechi and some great goals with Ronnie Winn scoring a couple of good goals as well. What on Earth was their keeper doing for the sixth goal? Suppose it was just frustration at that point as it had already stopped being a contest. Only thing for Worthing second half was their no 4 going off injured which may or may not be a factor for them. Complaints - none, well done Hornchurch

Fancy 1-1 as well att 790

😮 bet he’ll be ‘injured’ for both games

I’m going 2-0 Hx - if Tom Mills does turn up please give him a warm welcome 😁 att 185
